Interview with Kareem Abdul Jabbar

Kareem talks some bs in this interview, Wilt DID stop his skyhook several times, when he was at the END of his career and still could go head to head and dominated him at times and while Kareem was a the pinnacle of his strength. Imagine what a prime Wilt would do to Kareem... He would totally dominate him. Wilt is BY FAR the GOAT!

Wilton Norman Chamberlain. Stats don't lie . Greatest NBA player in my opinion

Wilt was the number 1 reason for a lot of NBA rule changes

Kareem was without a doubt the greatest man to ever play NBA ball. Admirable.

Kareem is probably the best player ever.

Kareem Abdul jabbar. 31st all time assists. 1st all time scorer 3rd all time blocker(first 4 seasons blocks not recorderd easily 1st) 15th all time ppg with 24.5ppg 3rd all time Rebounds 11th all time FG % (Wilt is 21st) Also he is 9th all time free throws made shooting much better than Wilt! Not to mention Kareem had 6 NBA MVP's (1st) 6 Nba Championships(2nd) and an astonishing 19 out of 20 all star selections(1st).

Nobody has this man's basketball resume. He is the GOAT.

Second greatest center of all time

this is great, I really enjoyed this

Finally, the great Bill Russell summed up the 72 playoffs between the 2 big guys perfectly. He stated "The Lakers were weary of kareem, But the bucks were absolutely terrified of Wilt! It showed, as Wilt blocked shot after shot including many of Kareem's, and was grabbing over 20 boards a game. I'm not going to argue, Kareem bested Wilt's Lakers in 71, but Wilt without question outplayed kareem in the 72 playoffs, or they would not have won. He deserved to be the MVP of the league that year.

Most of the people on here are so worried about points that their comments come off as stupid. Kareem did what he needed to do to win. Get off the whole Jordan BS. Jordan was a scorer (that could play defense as well)...his team was build to only win if he went off every night. Kareem was 7'2 and his presence made it easier to build a team around him when he didn't have to score 50 a night. And NOOO K Malone was not a better scorer or player than jordan but he did play 19 straight years and didn't retire twice at the prime of his game like Jordan. Jordan might have scored 40k pts if he didn't retire twice or he might have come out the first game of 93-94 and tore his freaking ACL and fucked his whole career up and ended with 3 titles and 3 mvp's. Stop the could've would've should've and appreciate what Kareem did. Lost 2 games in high school, 2 games in college. Won a title with the BUCKS in his 2nd year and 17 years later still started on a championship team which by the way was his 6th SIX TIME MVP...get your heads out of your ass people.

I love how people that think Jordan solo'd the first threepeat must not have been old enough to watch television at the time because they neglect to mention that until they had Horace Grant, a decent rebounder and defender they didn't win a championship or 3, then again when Rodman replaced Grant for the second threepeat. Jordan's team is underrated because people want to overly glorify him. He was good. 6 Championships good. Kareem did that too though.

Kareem is my favorite all time Laker

YES. Amen.

If you claim you know Kareem's career by heart, then you should know that in his 20-year career Kareem had to personally match up against Chamberlain, Thurmond, Hayes, Gilmore, Reed, Unseld, Lanier, Cowens, Walton, Malone, Parish, and Olajuwon. All HoF centers. The only notable HoF guards Jordan faced in his whole career were Drexler, Miller, and Dumars, and they're not even creme of the crop. The tougher matchups usually were assigned to Pippen. Until you know your stuff, thanks for playing.

Kareem Abdul Jabbar= GOAT no matter your exuse and backed by stats. many stats.

And you don't seem to know how much Pippen helped the Bulls. Watch some of his games in his rookie season, even the commentators were praising him when Jordan was having an off night. Things to come? Yes. In 1994 when MJ was retired, Pippen took a Jordan-less Bulls to 55 wins and led the team in EVERY statistical category, and even winning the All-Star MVP that year! Basically I'm saying the two players needed each other. But nobody wants to say that, especially Jordan jockers.

Before the '88 season, Jordan was still a scoring machine, while he had to go through the Celtics, the Pistons, and the Lakers who were all stacked! Thus, in the 90s Pacers were good too: Jackson, Byron Scott, Derrick McKey, Miller, Rose, Smiths, Ricky Pierce (a solid vet who only played a season there), etc. Magic (before Shaq left for LA): Horace Grant, Hardaway, Shaq, Dennis Scott (solid before injuries), Nick Anderson, Skiles, Donald Royal, etc.

Kareem, Wilt, Magic, Oscar, Bird, Russell

PREACH !!!!!
