Thank John Wooden and Pat Riley, the greatest coaches in their respective eras. Wooden won 7 straight national championships for UCLA with different teams. He won his first 2 with guards, his next one with forwards, his next 1 with the backcourt players, and the last 3 with Centers. That's a great coach. Riley was a beast of a coach in the 80's. He actually is one of the few good NBA players to make a great coach later on. Riley played with Wilt Chamberlain, Elgin Baylor , and Jerry west in the 1970's as a Laker. Having played against Kareem, he must have been thankful to have the big fella on his side when coaching.

The thing that was amazing about his skyhook was the range on it. He was accurate with that thing from 15-20’, not just in the post, and if an off defender fell asleep he’d fake the hook and dump it down low to a cutter for an easy layup. He was an outstanding passer, defender, even FT shooter, there were no holes in his game.

They are all freakishly good in their own positions, and although I find it impossible to compare their talents, they do bring up some fantastic stats to argue that Kareem is the GOAT. Funny how Kareem is normally left out (not to mention Bill Russell and Wilt), and everyone simply narrows it down to MJ and Lebron.

Honestly, he's the ONLY player that can be argued being better than Jordan. He won a championship early in his career for an unpopular team, and then won several more all the way till late his career while being still very potent. The fact that his first and last titles are 17 years apart, and that his FMVP titles are 14 years apart, shows true longevity. Both lebron and Jordan took a long while before they were able to start winning. Kareem was a winner right from the get go.

He also studied martial arts with Bruce Lee. I'd bet money he learned a lot about physical fitness, and staying in top shape, from training with Bruce Lee.

Kareem was an amazing player, but lets be real, if Blocks were recorded in the 60s that would just be another stat that Wilt would own

3:43 Kareem's name is extremely profound and due to the depth of the Arabic language, it's hard to translate into English but it better translates to: Honorable Servant of The Almighty. Or Noble Servant of The Most Powerful

Kareem = GOAT!!! Hands down. The A in GOAT means ALL time. High school, and college chips and consistently good playoff runs over his NBA career and 6 rings. Not just peak 6 yrs. And btw to Nonstop Sports, Ralph Sampson also blocked Kareem’s sky hook.

If Kareem (Lew Alcindor) had come out of H.S. to the NBA like LeBron, LeBron would never have Caught Kareem's Scoring Record...I watched him play all throughout the late 70s all through the 80s...The Skyhook was unstoppable...I wish more big Men would learn and use it
