The more Lakers became showtime, the less they had to rely on Kareem to make points in the post. This was the start of a different era in the league opened the door for Michael Jordan.
No sir. Magic Johnson wasn't an elite defender. He's on the Mt Rushmore after Jordan Jabbar & Russell in that order. Magic is the greatest at his position he's not the goat when his defense isn't elite sir. Jordan was leading the league in top defensive categories while leading the league in scoring on top of dominant playoffs an finals performances. Magic is a better complete player than LeBron that's a fact.
@@KingBreeze07 What is considered a elite defender all most of you do is repeat what you hear thru the media they define what is a elite defender for you there has been elite defenders and elite offensive players that the media don’t make a name for define a elite defender you repeat what the media says I pay attention to minds like yours no mind at all and most of them if not all of them referring to Magic as a non elite defender never played on a elite level or had Magic play defense on them . Name the professional basketball players that says Magic defense is not elite as you parrot. That is what the image making media feed you and you repeat .
@@abrahammitchell5599 Nah. Not a fan of religion (too divisive). Most importantly, I prefer to maintain respect for the person(s) who actually named Alcindor.
@@bubufubu I thought it was Kareem Abdul Jabbar from what I understand he no longer go by that Lewis Ferdinand Alcindor any more and from what I understand it is disrespectful to refer to a Muslim by his as Muhammad Ali said his SLAVE NAME .
