Heh. “Kareem never won on his own.” That you view yourself as some sort of basketball savant never fails to amuse me.
I guess it is impossible to completely ignore Man Coulter's breathtakingly specious intellectual drive bys.
Say something palpably STOOPID, and revel in the attention.
Lew Alcindor won Championships as a High Schooler, perhaps the most recruited hoopster in the history of collegiate ball. Coach John Wooten impressed this sensitive, intelligent young man by his respectful demeanor, referring to him as LEWIS.
Three National Championships as the bell cow for UCLA [not 4...freshman were proscribed from varsity play as Freshman, which did not stop the Freshmen from a famous exhibition game against the varsity in which they positively NUKED them]. Never won on his own? FUCK YOU, Ernst Rohm. In three years, Lewis/Kareem and his teammates lost precisely one game, a famous confrontation with Elvin Hayes and Houston in the Astrodome. Jabbar had an injured eye, but never fell back on that as an excuse. In their NCAA Tournament rematch UCLA simply DESTROYED Houston.
As a pro he singlehandedly transformed the Bucks Kulture. They fell short in his first year, but then the got The Big O.
The notion that a brother Elbaite floated about Oscar Robertson being a shell of his self, is simply NOT TRUE. No, he didn't score at his Cincinnati levels, but he DIDN'T HAVE TO. In their championship 70-71 season the Big O averaged 19.4 ppg, 5.7 boards and 8.2 assists, with a .850% FT on 385-453 shooting.
Chris Paul this past season? 16.4 ppg, 4.5 boards, 8.9 assists and a .934% from the FT line.
NEVER WON ON HIS OWN.
Moron.
NOBODY WINS ON THEIR OWN.
Called Chemistry.
Knicks had Clyde and Willis. Did the Knicks ever win without Dave D.
Bob Cousey has eight rings. Did he have any before Bill Russell.
Julius Erving. An All Time GREAT. Did he win without Moses Malone?
Jerry West and Elgin Baylor came up short again and again. After Elgin finally broke down, Jerry finally won, but he didn't win until he was paired with Wilt and Gail Goodrich and Jim McMillan and Happy Hairston. Want to talk about how Jerry didn't win on his own, dipshit?
Speaking of which, MJ didn't win without Bill Cartwright and Pippen and Horace Grant, so you got THAT bassackwards, numb nutz.
Jabbar had great co-stars on those Lakers teams; Magic, needless to say, plus McAdoo, Cooper, Nixon, Wilkes, Worthy, Thompson, Scott....BUT KAREEM WAS THE STRAW WHICH STIRRED THE DRINK. One could just as easily say it was Magic. What did Magic or any of those great players win without Kareem.
Kiid, you are a specious spittoon of spittle. Congrats on another classic drive by shitting.
Not unlike yourself, assdrip.
