Monday Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant was in Houston for a two-hour workout with Olajuwon.

 

Olajuwon said Bryant reached out to him for help with his moves in the post.

 

"He gave me the biggest compliment," Olajuwon said. "(He said) You are the best (at the) mid-post and post move.

 

"He wanted me to show my moves to him."

 

Olajuwon said his style of play in the paint is really suited for a guy like Bryant.

 

"In my mind most of my moves for a guy (with) that agility can use it better than the big guy," Olajuwon said. "Because my moves are not really for the big guy.

 

"It's for the guards and small forwards. So he would benefit most on the post because of his agility.

 

"It was so much fun because how he picks it up. I worked with him for two hours, step by step."

 

Olajuwon expects Bryant to be even better than he was last season when he led the Lakers to the NBA Championship.

 

"Adding those moves to his game, watch out for him this year," Olajuwon said. "I understand his dedication. His desire to win and stay on top.

 

"That's what I respect most about him."

 

By the way, Olajuwon said he would never have held one-on-one sessions like this if he was still playing.

 

"You don't want to give them your secrets," Olajuwon said.

Yeah Kobe had the IQ to win a championship im sure he has the IQ to learn the dream shake.

 

 

Hell, even Hakeem said Kobe picked up the moves quick and will be a beast next year.

 

Same could be said about Robert Horry, who played with Hakeem for 2 seasons.

Horry didnt ride anybody's back, he hit a clutch shot in almost every road to a championship title.

 

Theres a reason he had 6, 7 or however many rings.

Are you serious Horry didn't ride nobody backs to 6 or 7 titles? So he didn't ride on Hakeem back, He didn't ride along Shaq & Kobe back, & finally he didn't ride along Duncan back. Just cause you hit a clutch shot doesn't mean you have high IQ or were a driving force in that run.A game winning shot wins one game not the series. And the reason Horry got titles it cause he lands on a team that have have players that are HOF caliber players.

If it wasnt for that shot against the Kings, the Lakers wouldnt have won the series, etc. etc.

 

Horry was really important, one shot may be the key to winning a series.

So Horry was responsible for the sweep that year against the Nets cause of that one shot against the Kings alright I like how one shot also affects another series
