Nope. See OP.
The OP is total stats. He's saying Jordan's average per game is better except in two categories. It's a pretty simple concept.

"Listen hear kid, we all know MJ is the GOAT."

MJ is the greatest pro player ever - as I said earlier.
But the totality of the resume...Kareem is the greatest basketball player of all-time.
High School, College, Pro.
There is not a single person who will EVER have his resume. Ever. Dude lost 4 games in 6 years! And then won an NBA title with the shitty Bucks right away, NBA Rookie of the Year, second in scoring...gave Oscar a title he couldn't get. Took Jordan 6 years.
Kareems not the GOAT NBA player...but he's the greatest player to ever step foot on a basketball court. He's the Paul Bunyon, Babe Ruth of basketball.
2X High School Player of the Year
3X College Player of the Year
1X National High School Champion
3X NCAA Champion
NBA Rookie of the year
6X NBA MVP
10X NBA First Team
19X NBA All-Star
6X NBA Champion
Add them all up and the dude has 11 MVPS (high school player of the year + college + Pro)
Dude has 1 H.S. national title, 3 College national titles and 6 NBA titles...
Dude has 10 titles.
NOBODY EVEN COMES CLOSE TO HIS RESUME! It's insane. He is the greatest player manifested in results and numbers to ever play the Naismith game of basketball. EVER!

How can someone not be the GOAT NBA player yet be the greatest player ever to step foot on a basketball court? That logic literally makes zero sense, if he's the greatest basketball player then logically he's the GOAT NBA player otherwise that's just nonsense.

I think it can reasonably be said that no one was as good for as long as Kareem was.

How about "listen here kid we all know the ref was paid to not call that push off for Jordan's winning shot in '98"

I agree with this post. Stats and history are in Kareem's favor as greatest basketball player of all time. He may not be the best, but his greatness on the court is unparalleled.

But here's my question. Can anybody see LeBron or Jordan missing the playoffs twice and only making one conference final appearance in five seasons which are the absolute prime years (Ages 27-31) of their career? It would be unfathomable. So why does Kareem get a pass for those years?
Also note in 1980 he missed game 6 of the Final, Magic played Center and went off and they won. Magic also made the finals in 91 after Jabbar retired.
I do think Jabbar doesn't get enough talk as an all time great but it's because he's a cantankerous a hole, not because he's a Muslim.

Not going to read this thread, but the true GOAT is Wilt Chamberlain.
Check out the '72 Lakers-Bucks WC finals, a time when Jabbar was prime and Chamberlain was passed it.
Chamberlain owned him when it counted.
The Chamberlain of the '60s would have whipped and stood on guys like latter day guys like Shaq, etc.

What were the glory years like, grandpa?
Did they pull knives on each other like 80s basketball players did? Any fist fights?

Wilt Chamberlain--10.8 PPG
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar--33.7 PPG
Yeah it looks like Wilt is the one who was owning Kareem.
