The playground style of basketball played by the Houston Cougars from 1982-1984 and nicknamed "Phi Slama Jama" was extremely entertaining to watch, but Hakeem Olajuwon was almost not a part of it.

Phi Slama Jama was a name given to the men's college basketball teams of the Houston Cougars from 1982 to 1984. Coined by former Houston Post sportswriter Thomas Bonk,[1] the nickname was quickly adopted by the players and even appeared on team warmup suits by the middle of the 1982–83 season. The teams were coached by Guy V. Lewis and featured future Hall of Fame and NBA Top 50 players Hakeem Olajuwon and Clyde Drexler. "Texas' Tallest Fraternity" was especially known for its slam dunking and explosive, fast-breaking style of play. - from wiki.
