Jesus Christ was Jabbar magnificent in the early days. I mean he was always great, but when he was a kid and still had good legs he was 7-2 with an insane vertical. Outside of Wilt nobody had that kind of athletic ability at that position.

Exactly, Kareem in his prime was a supreme athlete. In his older age he was a skilled tactician of a player, but seeing him here, he was a beast.

Lenny Wilkens was such a good coach that people forget how good a player he was. The Van Arsdales both had that 1950s Indiana schoolboy jump shot. Oscar was so smooth.

The game was so different then with no 3 point line and much tighter rules for the offense. It was such a great era though and was fun to watch.

Toward the end, I liked how Lew (Kareem) set an offensive screen by using his shoulder while leaning low. I wonder if that has been outlawed?

I watched about a million games it seems like in the 1970s NBA and even some ABA and of course a lot after the merger and the two guys that I always remember being the most consistent and effective always were Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and John Havlicek

I didn't like when Bird and Magic came in the league.i thought it ruined the mystique of the 70s .I think Geoff Petrie was as great as pistol Pete and Paul westphal and Jerry west.he was the master of the spin dribble and he won co rookie of the year with Dave cowens.but he had knee injuries

The East played very well, especially considering that they were at a height disadvantage. Lots of points from Lou Hudson and Havlicek..

Wish we still this style of basketball. 3 point line and terrible officiating have ruined the game.

Because of the 3 point line and super relaxed rules for the offense, the modern NBA is a different game today.
