Devine and Shoals team up for a must read piece on Hakeem.
The guys at FreeDarko asked me to write something about Hakeem Olajuwon for their fantastic Dream Week project, and of course, I jumped at the chance. My submission, on how Hakeem destroyed Patrick Ewing and David Robinson in the 1994 and 1995 postseasons (and how those victories changed the way we looked at the other two best centers of Hakeem’s era), went live this morning.
I’d love it if you gave it a read, and I’d really love it if you supported the brilliant work that FD does by pre-ordering their Undisputed Guide to Pro Basketball History, which hits the market on Oct. 26.
Feedback on the piece, as always, is encouraged and appreciated.
