Was Ewing and Olajuwon rivalry Larry and Magic lite?

We'll never know how the Rockets stacked up against that Bulls team for sure thanks to a Karl Malone bear hug and a 3pt shot by Stockton. That would have been a great series to watch Barkley, The Dream, and Drexler vs MJ, and Pippen.

The Knicks series vs the Rockets was a scratch and claw defensive battle and that's not as appealing to the highlight reel finals the Lakers played vs the Celtics but it was still a great series between two evenly matched teams.

Barkley would lose the series for the Rockets somehow.

I can see the next new thread now...who was better... Ewing or the Admiral?

My thoughts exactly.

Luckily you have such a banner in your posts, that I know not to take you seriously.

I would say Shaq-Wallace was even bigger than Ewing Olijuwon simply because they faced each other in the post season 4 times in a row, determining the championship twice.
