Preface
In the history of the NBA, the center has performed an early glorious chapter, but with the emergence of forward and guard talents, the NBA's story has become richer and richer, as the NBA's recognized best scoring guard height, many outstanding guards are 198cm tall, and as a strange existence with the best height of the guard but playing famous in the center position, a pair of "big butts" of Barkley in 92 Leaving a deep impression on the world, although he lost six games with Jordan, Barkley's performance won the respect of the world, and when Barkley led the team to the finals in 93, how did the four centers perform?
Olajuwon
Averages: 26.1 points, 13 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 4.2 blocks per game
In addition to being the top player in the league, Olajuwon has surpassed all super centers in his career, but only lost to Jordan, Olajuwon is a Muslim like Irving, but this does not affect Olajuwon's on-court performance.
In the 91-92 season, Olajuwon and the Rockets had their own opinions because of health problems, and the Rockets believed that Olajuwon refused to play when he was healthy, and used this as a negotiation strategy like Garnett later, the Rockets management was furious and was suspended by the Rockets for three games, but according to the rules at the time, the suspended players had to miss five games, and after interceding with the other 25 teams, Olajuwon finally returned to the game after the suspension, but missed the playoffs because he was one win behind the Lakers.
After returning to the court in the 92-93 season, Olajuwon led the team to a second-place 55-win performance in the regular season, but missed the first record in the final regular season, which caused them to fall into a passive home court in the second round against the SuperSonics, and finally regretted to be out, as one of the few teams that can win at the hands of the Suns, Olajuwon averaged 26.1 points, 13 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 4.2 blocks per game that season, and is also the only two DPOY in history who averaged 25+ per game.
O'neill
Averaged 23.4 points, 13.9 rebounds, 3.5 per game
The 92-93 season was the first season of O'Neal's career, and after entering the NBA as the champion, O'Neal's first season Magic's regular season record was only a dismal 21 wins, but O'Neal, who was only a rookie at the time, was able to average 23.4 points, 13.9 rebounds and 3.5 blocks per game, and the best rookie was undoubtedly won by O'Neal.
In February 93, in the game of O'Neal's away challenge to the Suns, who had only been in the league for four months, O'Neal turned away from the defender and easily entered the basket in an offensive near the end of the first half, and then a powerful two-handed dunk directly shattered the rebound, and the basket was dunked down by O'Neal, and the game had to be interrupted for more than an hour. In April of the same year, in the game with the Nets, O'Neal smashed the live rebound again, and since then, O'Neal has also begun to deliberately restrain himself in the game, but he still smashed the rebound in a training session, and the shark who entered the league for the first time also left a deep impression on everyone.
Ewing
Averaged 25.8 points and 11.2 rebounds per game
As one of the biggest victims of the Jordan era, Ewing's entire career has been filled with regret and unwillingness.
After being picked by the Knicks in 85, Ewing led the Knicks to play Jordan for the first time in the 88-89 season, and handed over an average performance of 21.3+10 per game, but Jordan's average of 35.7 points and 9.5 rebounds per game was too unfortunate and was eliminated. After being swept by Jordan again in the 90-91 season, the Knicks under the leadership of Ewing in the 91-92 season successfully forced Jordan into a tie-break, but even if he averaged 22.1 points and 11.1 rebounds per game in the Eastern Conference finals, Ewing lost again under Jordan's performance of 42 points in the tie-break.
In the 92-93 season, under the leadership of Ewing, the Knicks once again broke into the Eastern Conference Finals to face Jordan, this season Ewing ushered in his real peak, not only averaging 25.8 points and 11.2 rebounds per game, but also directly destroying the Bulls on the inside, but the Knicks also couldn't withstand Jordan's indiscriminate bombardment on the outside, and finally lost six games under Jordan's average of 32.2 points, 6.2 rebounds and 7 assists per game, and was eliminated by the Bulls for the fourth time in his career.
Admiral: David Robinson
Season averages: 23.4 points, 11.7 rebounds, 3.2 blocks per game
As the champion of 87 years, the Spurs gave Robinson a lot of patience, and Robinson, who landed in the NBA in the 89-90 season, played a full performance, not only winning the six-month rookie of the year, but also averaging 24.3 points and 12 rebounds per game to knock on the door of NBA stars, and the horror of the Admirals can be seen from the Spurs' record, after Robinson joined, the Spurs' regular season record won 35 more wins than last season.
After the start of the 92-93 season, the Admiral's performance successfully attracted everyone's attention, and this season's Robinson can be said to have ushered in his real peak, not only playing 82 regular season games throughout the season, but also an astonishing 3211 minutes, and the Admirals in the 92-93 season were able to average 23.4 points per game. 11.7 rebounds and 3.2 blocks, while Robinson ranked seventh on the MVP list, after winning the Olympic gold medal for the Dream Team that season, the Admirals and Olajuwon, Ewing and O'Neal four centers were officially formed, but unfortunately Duncan appeared too late, otherwise the Spurs' rise may be earlier.
