He even outplayed Kareem when they went head to head in the 80s. Fact is, Olajuwon played his career during the golden age of centers, and he was never outplayed. He not only ran an offensive clinic on guys like Kareem, Ewing, Robinson, Shaq, but he held them to numbers that were far below their career averages. I throw up in my mouth every time I hear someone say Shaq > Hakeem.
