Daily News | Dallas Mavericks coach Jason Kidd understands comparisons between Joel Embiid and Hakeem Olajuwon
DALLAS — Jason Kidd has been in the NBA for over 28 years as a player, coach and assistant.
So the Hall of Famer knows a thing or two about evaluating talent. Before Thursday’s game with the 76ers, the Dallas Mavericks coach was asked if he saw a comparison between Joel Embiid and Hall of Famer center Hakeem Olajuwon. Olajuwon led the Houston Rockets to two NBA titles and was named the 1994 league MVP. The 12-time All-NBA selection possessed elite footwork and post moves.There will be no winners in Sixers-Nets trade if James Harden leaves this summer without an NBA title“They are both talented,” Kidd said at American Airlines Center. “Hakeem is one of the best centers to ever play the game, one of the best basketball players to play the game.
The Sixers added veteran center Dewayne Dedmon on Feb. 14. They spoke to Kevin Love before he signed with the Miami Heat. And the Sixers had interest with Will Barton, who chose the Toronto Raptors. But there wasn’t much other movement, and players who weren’t signed before Wednesday deadline are no longer eligible to play in the postseason.“You have to be,” he said. “That’s just the way that it is. I like our team, period. I don’t need to go any further than that. I really like our team.
