I was just about to comment 😂
What now Karem?

I love how this guy shows up the Milwaukee game and would like to get honored by the organization but has no faith that this current team can win. What a guy.
And look at what we have here… Giannis is officially an NBA Champ.
@@R_Velli_ no one cares make it happen then
Kareem: “The Bucks aren’t winning a chip, and KD will kill those guys.”
The Bucks: *and I took that personally.*
Edit: The Bucks just won the Finals, and they proved Kareem wrong.

Say that again Kareem....🏆
Kareem is one of my favorite people of all time. I'm so happy in his age he still has his mind and all his faculties.
Yeah, considering he’s 74 he’s so physically snd mentally sound
@@Jeremiahskii yeah he clearly has taken good care of his health, great to see.
He's a great guy and if I'm completely honest, probably the 2nd best player of all time behind Jordan. Kareem had his own unguardable shot, 6 time champion, all time leading scorer, etc. Kareem was considered the GOAT before MJ came along.
@@jackastor5265 well I personally have LeBron number one then Jordan then Kareem. But I think that's the only logical top 3 and that they're kinda interchangeable
@@pacersnrams781 I think kareem is number 3, but gotta be in everyone’s top 5. A great combination of wilt and russel. A dude with unbelievable talent and the mindset of team winning

Kobe believed in Giannis. All that matters.
And now Giannis won it all
It's sad he isn't here to see it today
Oh hellos
Kobe knew it when he saw it.
I’m back again. Bucks won it all. Aged well Kareem.
who’s here after the bucks are NBA CHAMPS BABYYYY🦌🦌🦌🦌
Kareem looks amazing for his age!!!
Facts
Money and self care
Yes, he should help Anthony Davis 1st to stay in the paint & with his diet so he can avoid injuries. Then he can assist Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Hearing Kareem talking about his heroes; the giant shoulders he stands on brings tears to my eyes... one of the greatest of all time has the humility to admit he didn't start the fire, but he kept it burning brighter, and continues to keep it burning; giving credit to those who protect that fire now... class act through and through

Now its time to ask kareem the same question after the bucks beat the nets.
...NOW
You mean the same nets team that had 2 of their star players miss half the series? And they still manage to take it to OT in a game 7, lmfao
@@skeetskeet9433 with a top three player starting
It's refreshing to hear insight and honesty instead of just takes that the people giving them don't even believe.
When the greatest player in the history of your franchise questions your chances of winning, that speaks volumes. They should get Kareem to help Giannis with his post game and Oscar to help Giannis with his free throw shooting.
If Giannis could develop a consistent hook shot he’d be unstoppable. Build a wall all you want if he’s hitting a free throw line hook consistently, you’re done!
@@milli2385 Ehhh lets talk about hooks and shots next time when he finally has a free throw with a decent percentage
@@milli2385 thats true, once giannis became more efficient in ft n in 3pt, in decent percentage, he will kill kd n any other player
@@TH-uy5ou good luck with that, why doesn't he pay to the abilities he has now. It's not all about 3 point shooting.

Back to this video now that bucks are one more win to win it all
: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, they won't win a title
: He spoke too soon 🤣 MVP 🏅🎉🦌💚
I mean this was before kyrie also went down so it’s not like he knew 2 of their starters were gonna be out for half the series
What a Lonely Man
EAT YOUR WORDS KAJ!
This aged well
Kareem is one of the realest people you’ll ever meet, he’s not gonna lie on national tv as much as he loves his former team.
Last time I checked he is in love with Lakers.
@@duponmic He has love for Milwaukee as well, if you’ve ever seen him talk about them you’d know
Bro left Milwaukee cause it was too small for him, I think we’re good on the advice cause y’all would be complaining if Giannis went to join lebron
That aged beautifully
@@fraykamp913 I’m glad it didn’t, the only team I didn’t want to win the chip was the Nets
Who's here after Bucks won their 2nd Title.
It feels great proving the haters wrong
What now Karem?
@@dennisquiah7 to be fair if the nets were healthy they would’ve absolutely murdered the bucks, if you disagree you’re in denial, but i like giannis and a ring is a ring and he did play like a beast in the finals
@@skeetskeet9433 Kareem said KD would kill those guys ... Turns out he didn't. idk about KD + Kyrie, most likely they would've won, but KD alone, he lost. So what kareem said is wrong.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar: This Bucks team won’t win a title
Giannis: We'll see.
Currently:
Bucks beat the Suns 4-2
I'm just appreciative that a Legend like Kareem Abdul Jabbar is still with us. God bless him!
And this is why Giannis is already the best Buck of all time
Nah I still put Kareem at number 1 Giannis is at number 2 for me
@@darrylturner3731 It's insignificant where YOU put Giannis, Giannis put himself on top of all Milwaukee players and was crowned the king.
@@iTheGeo Kareem was a better Buck but whatever you say kiddo
@@sir_sackAfter winning the championship, Giannis is now way past Kareem.
He has been a Buck more years and never left for another team like Lakers.
Is it really necessary to explain to you the obvious?
Now back to your toys son and let these discussions for adults.
@@iTheGeo But Kareem won the title with the bucks in less time. He was drafted to the bucks who were a losing team in 1969, and in two seasons got them their FIRST ever championship. This year the bucks were a winning team and Giannis just happened to be on it. The bucks would have done pretty well without Giannis. However Kareem practically single handedly carried the bucks the the 1971 championship, and they wouldn’t have even made the playoffs if it wasn’t for him. So Kareem had a bigger role in his championship than Giannis in his.
Never forget
Had to come back after they won a title, never say never Kareem…
He relates to Durant so much because he was the 🐍 of his time, going to a big city franchise. Bucks in 6.
Watch him come to Milwaukee in the ECF and cheer for the Bucks. Keep the same energy
Giannis saw this and had motivations
Cause of this statement Bucks are now NBA champions
I’m here after bucks are one win away to go back to Milwaukee for game six but I’m glad to they know who they shouldn’t celebrate with if they with win this chip.
Well this didn’t age well..
2021 champions!
Kareem eating his words rn
Only way Bucks win the series, if Chuck Guarantees The Nets winning the series
😂😂😂Facts
Don't give him any ideas😂
And that my friend, i guarantee… 😂😂😂

Sad to see Kareem doubt the Bucks. So glad the Bucks won!
And the bucks are about to be champions in about 30 seconds
Edit: They Won.
Where he at now?
Kareem: Plain disrespects the whole Bucks organization
Freak Giannis: Takes it personally, and wins the title!
😎
Yes sir keep it rolling with that nets pack
He can't have an opinion? He said the Bucks wouldn't win a Championship. Wait until they win the 8 games
it will take to be crowned NBA Champions!!
@@missjoyceakaladyj6628 W

It's too sad that even after all these years you seem to not able to understand basketball as what it really is....a TEAM SPORT...not an individual one. The more focus you do on individuals and how KD will eventually kill all those poor Bucks, the more the Bucks will surprise you in the end by offering you their answer. And the answer is 115-111, the Bucks TEAM reaches the ECL
Real talk.
I mean kd really did kill the bucks if we’re pulling up the stat sheets, kyrie missed the whole 2nd half of the series and harden missed the whole first half and even when harden came back he was still hurt to the point where he literally could not run a fast break, that would be like if middleton and holiday missed half the series for the bucks, obviously the bucks wouldn’t have a chance without them, same thing goes for the nets with ree and harden. So as good as the bucks were they shouldn’t have even let the score be that close let alone get taken into OT by practically one man
@@skeetskeet9433 The point is that the Bucks play-off performance overall was an outstanding example of “Total basketball” i.e the kind of basketball where you get the maximum individual and team performance of all units in offence and defense. Most importantly, the Bucks brought the Defense factor to the spotlight. 1,2,3 Defense was their moto before entering the court every time, no coincidence. Consequently, in the Nets’ case, no matter how many super-stars you have in whatever condition, if no one is playing defense (apart from KD) then you ll get the same result in every match-up. If Brooklyn can’t get a single rebound due to the Bucks domination in both paints, the result won’t change even if you bring Curry and Thompson to their roster. Team defense and the necessary adjustments of Bud made the Bucks champions this year, not just Giannis. Winning the title despite losing Donte very early in the play-offs who evidently was their strongest combo guard this year and (next to Jrue) best periphery defender did not change the final outcome at all…a perfect team beats everything and everyone.
@@skeetskeet9433 Keep crying and wailing away, I’m gonna go rewatch the highlights from the Bucks’ Championship run.
@@morttanius86 This is a great post. Sadly I doubt the doofus you’re replying to will understand it. The average NBA fan is just mind boggling dumb now unfortunately and they simply won’t grasp that when a team is getting decimated on the boards and the defense has disrupted any type of team or cohesive flow, KD taking over was the best thing they could have asked for, EVEN IF Harden and Kyrie were playing. There is only one ball, bro. You weren’t going to get MORE points than what KD did because what he did was MORE efficient than anything those other two could have done. It wasn’t about him or them, it was another what the Bucks did as a TEAM.
*Came back here after the Finals was over*

Thats what i was saying 2 season ago…
Definitely and if they don't, he WILL be FIRED and that's a Barkley GUARANTEED!!!
Exactly!!
This aged well...
Kareem is the real GOAT. look at his stats. He's been retired for how many years and still hold the scoring title wow.
Kareem played in a weak era with some of the best teams ever. He said himself that the newer eras are way more talented. I have Kareem 3rd all time
Who else came back here after the Bucks won the series vs the Nets?
After they sent the homies in atl baby
After they won the Finals
That didnt age well. - KD got close though
@Bald Eagle how tf did kd get punked? He literally averaged 35, 7, 5 in the bucks series, almost killed them by himself in game 7 while 2 of his star teammates were injured, im not surprised tho you seem like the typical delusional nba fan
Love that Kareem was straight and to the point, a man who's won multiple times knows what it takes to get it done!!!
Not really, when you build a super team with 3 of the top 10 players in the league, Kareem hooped back in his day when the post was the most important and this is the same guy who left Milwaukee cause he wanted to be an actor so we’re good on the advice
@@sammyjoseph2040 Milwaukee had no mosque for Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to attend for religious purposes that's the primary reason if you listen to his interviews....

I'm from Milwaukee, and good god, nobody could have predicted a postseason like this for the Bucks. Not even if you still picked them to win the whole thing.
Watching this after game 7, lol
3-3 Mr Kareem.
The honesty from this man is incredible. I do hope the Bucks prove him wrong. Sometimes getting a championship is a matter of being in the right place at the right time rather than having all the right pieces.
Thank You. I Love Kareem to death -- but like you, I hope that the Bucks win it all over the Clippers!!
I am a time traveler we did it
Who came back after bucks won the finals
Don’t talk old man
One step closer to shuttin up the GOAT
This aged well old timer
Kareem may have spoken a lil too soon. Because the Bucks are about to put the Net's out the Playoffs. The Bucks are playing with a Unstoppable spirit!. It's going to be extremely hard to beat the Bucks.... They are in Juggernaut mode.
Bammmm there gone
Kareem is such a man of class. Humble, respectful, honest, a standup human being.
💯
That's what is truly lacking in our society. Because a person is older-- they don't understand the basic fundamentals of games that were watched forever.
I'm old school too -- however I can talk about Basketball, Football & Baseball with the best👍😄
Proven wrong. This Bucks team played amazingly well! Congratulations Milwaukee!
This hit different now Kareem!! He won😂🏆
Jeez, they just won right now…that’s crazy
The real NBA Greatest Of All Time!
He is humble, honest, unbiased yet confident!
Much respect to a Legend!
ABSOLUTELY!!

Thank u bro im in pain
Im not even bucks fan but i like giannis and i was in tears
Trust me, as a bucks fan it’s crazy but definitely believable. I’ve seen my share of bucks collapses. So KD doing what he dead last night makes sense. Still wish it didn’t happen though but whatever.
Also I’m in a whole different state of mental pain. So thanks for the concern
Me after Bucks won the CHAMPIONSHIP: seems that Kareem is actually a human 🙃
This interview was made when Kyrie wasn't hurt. Yeah, Kareem couldn't see the future what a liar. KD almost beat Nets and didn't have Kyrie + Harden lmfao.

Giannis needs to work with Hakeem Olajuwon. He'd definitely see a mass improvement in his game if he were to do so.
Slow down. He gotta work with somebody else cause he can’t learn those moves from Hakeem
Giannis is a hard-headed guy .he will not be willing to work with Hakeem.
I agree, he has no ability to shoot the ball from the premeiter,his free throws are bad also. Euro step moves is ok in the regular season playing against bad teams,in playoffs is different. At least hakeem will teach a little moves in the post.

Debatable, Kareem also got a championship for the bucks and also won 2 MVP’s just like Giannis. There is also the Big O who helped get 1 championship and played most of his career in Milwaukee. It’s tough, if Giannis could get one more maybe in the next 5 years, then he will be the undisputed greatest buck of all time.
