BIG THREAD - Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is massively overrated
#KareemOverrated

PART 1 - Kareem faced weak competition
#KareemOverratedPart1

Kareem's fellow 1970s MVP winners
Bob Mcadoo, Bill Walton, Dave Cowens
no wonder he has 6 MVPs

PART 3 - Kareem was not even the best player in 5 of 6 championships
#KareemOverratedPart3

Kareem only won 2 FMVPs of 6 titles. 71 Finals MVP was vs 42-40 Bullets w/ Gus Johnson missing 2 of 4 games. 2nd Finals MVP was undeserved.

PART 2 - Kareem heavily depended on Magic / Oscar
#KareemOverratedPart2

Kareem beat ZERO (0) 50+ win teams in the playoffs in SIX (6) seasons without Oscar/Magic, 5 of them were prime years

PART 4 - Kareem getting schooled and lit up by other bigs
#KareemOverratedPart4

Willis Reed = 0 seasons of 22 ppg
Willis Reed = 27.8 ppg vs Kareem in 1970 EDF
