Olajuwon University is the University of Houston. In the draft of 1984, he was selected by the Rockets as the No.1 pick. That year's draft was also called the golden generation. Besides Olajuwon, there are Michael Jordan, Charles Buckley and John stockton. The Rockets won the top draft by flipping a coin and chose Olajuwon, but the Trailblazers were a little behind. Poewe came in second, which made them miss Jordan.
Olajuwon was a quick victory in his rookie season, which helped the team improve its record by 19 games. He was proud of his alliance with the sampson Twin Towers, but he was defeated in the selection of the best rookie, just because that person was Jordan.
In the second season of his career, Olajuwon and sampson's Twin Towers made it all the way, and eliminated the defending champion Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference finals. Olajuwon scored 45 points, 35 points and 30 points respectively in the last three games of the Western Conference finals, and the dominance was clear at a glance.

However, sampson was later traded to the Warriors, and the era of the Twin Towers ended. Olajuwon's data continued to improve, but the team's record could not be further improved. Even in the 9 1/92 season, Olajuwon still performed well. He even scored 18 points 16 rebounds 10 assists 165438.
Until the arrival of Tang Shuai, the Rockets finally returned to the top teams and reached the finals again in 1994. In the East, with Jordan's retirement, the new york Knicks entered the finals, and Olajuwon led the team to beat the Knicks to win the championship, which also secured the position of the top four centers.
In the following season, although they only ranked sixth in the regular season, they struggled all the way to the finals again. In the final, they swept the magic and won two consecutive championships against O 'Neill, who was still young.
However, with the growth of age, the Rockets never reached the finals. 200 1, the rocket also began to rebuild. Olajuwon was traded to Toronto Raptors after rejecting the Rockets130,000 USD contract renewal.
