That's a fair point.

Kareem is the GOAT college basketball player of all-time and a giant in the NBA (Top 10).

But by the time the Lakers really got going - in mid 80's - Cap was really old and struggling.

I remember how Magic always used to have deference to him - "we can't win this without Cap dominating" - it was mind games...trying to get Kareem back into it and raise his game. Magic really kept Kareem in the game. Magic was so smart - he knew how to push people's buttons.

You sure about that?

He averaged 18/7 on 57% shooting in 1987. That may not be the Kareem of his prime, but that 39 year old Kareem alone was better than any player Lebron had in his 1st 7 seasons.
