@@jshonsmith3399 1 Championship with the Bucks and 5 Championships with the Lakers! Kareem himself said once: "The last ten years were better than the first ten years!" :D
@@MusikPiratCH ofcourse kareem is gonna say that,he was carrying bums for the majority of his time with the bucks while it was alot easier with the lakers because he had a much better supporting cast
Kareem has been the biggest idol in my life in sports and in life since I was a little white boy in the 5th grade in '71 growing up in Oregon. I became an avid reader because I knew he was. And now he's a great author in his own right.
If Kareem got a statue in Staples Center, Kobe should have one too. Kobe is the greatest Laker of all time, nothing can change my mind. Period. RIP GOAT.
So much disrespect for many years the NBA has shown to Kareem. Always overlooked and forgotten. Glad that lately, people who know his greatness, start talking about him. Still the best center of all, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar more than deserved that statue! Before Magic was drafted, he literally carried the Lakers on his back since he first came to Los Angeles in 1975. Except for his first year with the Lakers, Kareem was the reason why the Lakers were annually in the Playoffs before 1980. After Lakers Owner Jack Kent Cooke drafted Magic Johnson in the 1979 NBA Draft then turned around and sold The Lakers, Kings, and The Fabulous Forum to Dr. Jerry Buss, that’s when the Lakers took off!
Long time coming. Amazing he never had a statue. Arguably the best basketball player in history and definitely greatest center in history. Chamberlin oh so close but it's Kareem for me.
it's how each play..if people just look at stats you can't tell how they do on court. not talking about points or others stats but how they shoot, clutch shots footwork etc
Magic is right! Kareem should have had the first statue.His statue epitomizes what he was.The 'sky hook.The most dominating shot in NBA history
good player
Kareem and Kobe was just too damn epic!!
today it means something deep and sad :(
Right !!
U mean magic

Kareem didnt get the recognition he deserves because of his off-court problems. . But I'd say he is the best Laker ever.
#GoodTrouble
His best years were with the bucks

@@jshonsmith3399 Just take Kareem's words. He is probably more intelligent than you and me! ;)
I love that moment when Kobe greets Kareem
"gets court side tickets today" well thanks a fucking lot. a legend like him should be allowed to sit next to the bench
😂😂💯💯facts
Well, i doubt he will waste his time watching westbrook!

Love Magic and Kareem, such great and humble players
Kareem should have had a statue the day he retired.
What a great achievement. A dream come true. That's a perfect example of what you can achieve through hard work and dedication
They took too long to do this. But eventually eh?? Magic Johnson was right
Some greats take too long to get recognition and before the likes of MJ and Kobe and LeBron there was KAJ

A true gentleman. One of two best players. Long live Kareem ❤️
It's a shame that Kareem had to speak up before the Laker organization did the right thing. Better late than never though.
Kareem and Hakeem both are so humble and lovely personality
It's about time!Karen looks so stoic but you can tell he's choked up inside. He deserves all the praise!
the most humble person!
What a beast man Kareem is such a humble and good guy bro
awesome for Kareem, one of the best all time

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar more that deserve a statue built in his honor!
Legend
I lost an ounce of respect for this Laker organization when Kobe received a statue BEFORE Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. This helps that wound somewhat.
Legend !!!! :D
About damn time...
Congratulations to Kareem.

Couldn't say it any better man! Players these days use cause he brought it to the game.
God bless
best center ever
Greatest center of all time. Its not even close.
The. Ultimate. GOAT.
The game has changed but there will never be another like him- as George, Bill, and Wilt before him and Shaq, Hakeem, and Jokic after him.
cap I didn't see you live but u r the best
Long time coming. Amazing he never had a statue. Arguably the best basketball player in history and definitely greatest center in history. Chamberlin oh so close but it's Kareem for me.
Kareem over Wilt: More titles, better free throw shooter, better teammate.
there isn't enough bronze in the world for a statue of shaq lol
He has a statue now
kareem was taller than shaq but not as **thicc**

Thats badass
That's pretty cool, Kareem was such a baller
best center in history
For the record, YES I am a Laker fan. A hardcore/old school fan at that.
Great respect for Kobe after that... Recognised kareems legendary status and respect for the greats that came b4 him... Rip kobe
i know right he is so clutch with his airballs
The man who can hook the sky and make it rain upon you.
it's how each play..if people just look at stats you can't tell how they do on court. not talking about points or others stats but how they shoot, clutch shots footwork etc
About damn time. Respect the Hook Shot
🐐🐐🐐
Imagine playing in that game knowing that the Legend himself is watching you!
bout damn time
"6 statues in front of Staples" None for the Clippers
clippers should move elsewhere they dont belong in staple center
bob mcadoo wants to know your location
@Notorious1503 they are moving to a new stadium
@@takitobutface6805 check out the most entertaining players to watch czcams.com/video/VOtsEbysQng/video.html
and none for the Kings either.
Wow..It just felt so good when Kobe went and knuckled 'em paws with Kareem @0:59..what a honor !!
He had a very successful life and career
holy shit >>
Kareem is probably my favourite laker .
Kareem was A boss
about fucking time!!!
long overdue
Kareem the Dream, the Skyhook master !!
Long overdue!
Kareem built the Staples.... He should have had a statue in 89.... For me right up there next to MJ as the 🐐
with respect .. kobe to kareem :)
thats fresh
Yea Your Right He Some What Does
Eri un' ala grande.
RIP kobe
Every team should have a statue of Brian scalabrine honor everything he did for the NBA legend of the white mamba
its crazy how he's had more All-Star years than most players have had total years in general
whoa! that escalated quickly...
