- Beautiful and high scoring game. Good opportunity to watch the twin towers
Olajuwon absolutly unstoppable.

olajuwon was one of a kind player...no words can describe him...alex english...you don't see players like that anymore today...and that's unbelievable.the level of the game was higher in the 80's and 90's baby.
Lmfao
It sure was..80s to early 2000s were the golden age of the NBA..today is a pale soft imitation
Crazy how good Olajuwon was in the post. Soon as he touched that ball. HE MOVED, don't care if Double team came or not.
that is the secret, as you say: "soon as he touched the ball, HE MOVED" Almost nobody did, or do, so. Many players were to be teached by Olajuwon in his home, but it is so dificult to them make the finest moves of Hakeem..
High level of basketball here folks.I won't even talk basketball with anyone who doesn't know these guys.
english was such a great player and not only scorer,in this game he had 34p-5erb-10as and he avg 30-5-4 that season!and of course the twin towers...if sampson could stay healthy...
English and Spanish were sucha good players, they were Unbeatable, (With an african accent) 😄😁🤔

Nuggets were 85 Midwest Champions and in the 85 WCF vs Los Angeles
Rockets 🚀 86 Midwest Champions and 86 Western Conference Champions 🏆 vs Los Angeles
87? Dallas, Denver or Houston win the Midwest? 87 WCF? Seattle vs Los Angeles
88? Dallas win Midwest? 88 WCF was Dallas vs Los Angeles 7 games.
Great upload! Just one thing, this game was played on April, 26th, and this was Game 1 of the first round series... THANKS!
The Houston Rockets were destined for greatness before losing Lewis Lloyd & Mitch Wiggins to drugs. And trading Ralph Sampson not long after that. If they would've kept the team that went to The 1986 NBA Finals, they would've eventually won multiple championships.
yes, I've been saying the same thing also
Basketball like this doesn't exist in todays game. 145
alex english short jumper NEVER touched any rim
Gary Bender, one of the most underrated PBP announcers.
1983-1993 The Best Level of The NBA IMO!
83-95
77-89
1984 to 1993
94-10 was the best defensive era
84-93 the GOAT players era
11-23 the best offensive era
69-83 the greatest parity era
68 to 56 Classic Olympian era
55 only white people played so who gives a fuck
67-87
Wow. If only the Rockets drafted Clyde Drexler the year before Olajuwon and had them both. UUGHGGHGH.
WCurtis
Yeah. Cause, even if/when Sampson (and all those guards) went down, they would still have Drexler. This way, if they had to make moves, it wouldn't be so drastic, and you still have the ability of Drexler as a base.
@@msl5253 Oh for sure. I totally agree. And just in case you didn't know, the Rockets passed on drafting Clyde in 1983 and chose Rodney McCray.
Damn!! Look at how quickly he closes the space between he and shooter at 5:28!!! 🏀🏀
RIP, Doug Moe and Bill Fitch...🏀💯
Great looking game. Thanks!
@5:16 @ 5:30 @ 5:55 @6:01
1) Dream Shake already patented by young Akeem
2) offensive glass ferocious aggressiveness by young Akeem, his off rebs early in his career are ridiculous and Rodman, Russell, Wilt and Moses Malone and Charles Barkley spectacular. Among the best ever to attack the loose basketball 🏀
3) defensive prowess and speed and anticipation and hand eye to ball coordination
Good sign when ur 23 ppg second year Center takes down a perennial 26-29 ppg scorer like English shot for shot... Olajuwon became Wilt Chamberlain offensively in postseasons. Should have probably dominated the ball more from 86-92... By 93 he had finally done so.
Even on the rise the Rockets 🚀 had lost an engine 🚂 by this time 86 season. John Lucas.
Alex English was Mr Smooth back in his day. A little like the Ica Man, but not quite the prolific scorer as Gerv was. 4 scoring titles.
Do you have game 6? That was a 2OT classic in Denver.
I watched Fat LMK ever snatch 16-17 rebounds in one game. He was only 6.2.
There is no team then and now who could stop top form Hakeem + Sampson.
Boston in 86 actually had the answer with healthy Bill Walton to make a Four Towers 🗼🗼 🗼🗼 with McHale Parish Walton and Bird. That was a tall unit.
just love the twin tower days. too bad it's only a flash

alex english weird way of moving but he was good at get ball in hoop
Semifinals, not first round
Denver Nuggets all time best players?
1) Jokic
2) English
3) Anthony 🇵🇷 🅱️
4) Mutombo
5) Issel
1:55 ralf sampson make othe rplayer look liek baby sometimes why didnt coach give him 50 shot a game?
@Gavin Schette
Cause Olajuwon was the better, more consistent half court scorer, especially when the Rockets really needed a basket.
RIP David Stern.
Watching the game today, I see a lot of Young Hakeem in Anthony Davis,although Davis is a bit smaller. I think he can get to his level one day.
not likely
Nope. Modern NBA players all think they're guards, including Centers.
@@guitarsANDcars39 you definitely don't watch the NBA
Lmao
@3:08
Hakeem shook Danny Schayes out of Dolph Schayes Will of Deeds
the 2023 nuggets weren't as elite as the 1994 and 1995 rockets because nikola jokic LITERALLY never has or will be equal to legend hakeem olajuwon
make nba gr8 again
Can't stand these "let's just show the big names scoring and that's it" type of videos. Garbage. Lewis Lloyd had 28 in this game. You would think from these highlights that he wasn't a factor.
