Ewing avg 24ppg on 50% FG this season.... Olajuwon held him to 18ppg on 36% FG for the 94' Finals! This was while leading his team in points, steals and blocks! Goated
Hakeem was crazy good...#1 in blocks #14 in rebounds and #12 in points all time. Amazing that his 1st championship he didn't even have another all star on his team. GOAT center for me
Ewing seems like the smartest player out of the legendary big men of 90s. All his decisions were very on point, even though Hakeem is much more athletic than him, he played it smart.
The knicks lost 4 games by very small margins, if Ewing had had a better shooting performance in the series they would’ve won, but no complains he know he gave it all I believe he broke the record for most block shots in the finals and they would’ve not been there if not for him . Ewing will go down as one the most underrated players just because he played in such an era of big man while dominated by a rigged Michael Jordan.
They actually were pretty talented, they could play the Knicks style of ball and also play uptempo if that was the style the opposing team played that's why they were a championship team in the first place.
@@yvans. That was the Knicks pshyical style that usually causes teams to shoot like that. The Rockets shooting actually got better as the series went on they shot 49% and 47% the last 2 games, that's pretty decent playing the Knicks.

And don't forget 9th in steals in front of Lebron
@@karlinwilliamson9329 And Lebron played way more games than him.
@@yvans. that's what makes it even more special. Great observation
Come on now he had the great Kenny “the jet “ smith 😂 and Sam cassell is underrated imo
Hakeem Olajuwon Patrick Ewing David Robinson Shaquille O'Neal best nba centers of the 1990's.
Facts!
Don't forget Alonzo Mourning and Dikembe Mutombo
@@GHOST91141 It goes Hakeem the Shaq, then Ewing, then Robinson, Then Mourning, Then Mutombo, HOWEVER, Rik Smits was a good center too..
@@soramirez5473 Robinson and Ewing were both much better than Shaq
@@deebofleebo6427 idk about that. And im a knicks fan

Ewing underrated
Ewing just wasn't himself offensively in the series. But he did have 30 blocks in this series
That's why the series went the distance he still had a huge impact with his rebounding and interior defense.
Patrick Ewing had 30 blocked shots vs Houston Rockets in 1994 nba finals,but the series went through the striking distance to a decisive 7 GMs?
The day when OJ ran away.

Pat Ewing outplayed Hakeem. Period and the series should have ended there. According to older rules etc.
8:19 Stretch Big!
GM 5 was the O.J. simpson video chased by the police and swats and helicopters for the murder of O.J. ex wife Nicole Brown Simpson?
That Rockets team wasn’t talented outside of Dream but they had the “Heart of a Champion”
They actually were pretty talented, they could play the Knicks style of ball and also play uptempo if that was the style the opposing team played that's why they were a championship team in the first place.
@@ChrisM07 lol. They all shoot under 36 from the field.
The Knicks lost that game because Hakeem lock up Patrick.

Akeem best player of the 90's.
