Edit this paragraph | Back to Top Player Introduction

1989 when 42-year-old Kareem Abdul-Jabbar left the NBA, he left behind a series of brilliant records, which were unmatched by later generations: the most points scored, the most blocked shots, the most MVP in the regular season, the most All-Star selections and the longest career season. He also personally created perhaps the most respectable personal honor list and team honor list in NBA history: the best rookie, six championships, six regular season MVPs, two finals MVPs, 19 All-Star Selection, two scoring champions, and the 35th and 50th anniversary All-Star Selection of NBA. He also has eight playoff records and seven All-Star records. No NBA superstar can use the word "honor" to wrestle with Abdel-Gabbar.

Abdel-Gabbar has his own unique regimen and training methods, which makes his career look unparalleled and difficult for others to imitate. Even if someone can imitate it, he has another kind of housekeeping skill, which no other person can copy through the ages. Yes, this is his registered trademark "Tiangou". Although Jabbar himself thinks that this is not masculine and magnificent, it is undeniable that this move is indeed one of the most efficient killing skills in all professional sports. As a true all-around player, Jabbar has injected fresh elements of elegance, flexibility and versatility into the position of the old center. Before him, people usually thought that the center had only two characteristics: strength and size.

Despite so many incredible achievements, in fact, Jabbar didn't gradually win the hearts of fans until the dusk of his career. He is an introverted, withdrawn and indifferent person, who always deliberately avoids the pressure of the public and the news media, making him feel inaccessible. As he once said to sports news, "I am the worst of all the bad guys."

With the passage of time, Jabbar's personality has changed, and cheerful and laughter began to appear more on him. By the end of his career, the fans, players and coaches of the league finally accepted him. In the upcoming 1988-89 season, Jabbar was welcomed and blessed by the tsunami in all the stadiums in the league.

Pat Riley, the coach of Miami Heat, has a mentoring relationship with Qiao Ba for eight years. He once rehabilitated his disciples in the famous Sports Illustrated: "Why do you care about other unimportant things?" When a person is under great pressure and criticism, constantly breaking records and winning the championship, why do people attack him with other things? We should drink to the greatest athletes of all time. "

Abdel-Jabbar was born in new york, just two years after the end of World War II. Jabbar, whose original name is Ferdinand Lewis Alcindor Jr, is an only child in his family, and he is extremely spoiled by his mother, but his father is a rigid, rude and strict person, so it is said that Alkindor dislikes his father very much. Because of his soaring height, the young Alkindore was quickly regarded as a freak and clown by his classmates at Harlem School. However, with his innate basketball talent, he quickly swept the streets and high school basketball circles in new york, and was immediately recruited into UCLA by NCAA coach john wooden, who had a discerning eye, and began his magnificent college basketball career.

Alkindore quickly changed the order of the whole NCAA. In addition to the fact that the relevant regulations of the league cannot represent the first-year school team, in the past two years, 1967 and 1969, Alkindor was selected as the best player of the year by many authoritative organizations such as sports news, united press international, Associated Press and American Basketball Writers Association, and in the past three years, 1967- 1969.

The Milwaukee Bucks, a new army in its second year, are lucky. They won the first prize in the draft of 1969 and chose Algindore, who dominated the world. Their first season is easy to feel pity, with 27 wins and 55 losses, tied for the bottom with the Phoenix Suns, but Milwaukee has a deeper knowledge in coin guessing, and Phoenix can only sigh. As we all know, it is time to change the dynasty, and a new super center is about to appear in the world. Bill russell just left Boston with a bag of rings. As for wilt chamberlain, although he has maintained considerable efficiency, he is 35 years old and his career is still short. With Alkindore as the center, the Bucks easily scored 56 wins and 26 losses, and jumped to the second place in the East at the speed of rockets. Alcindor is like a plug-and-play microwave oven, but it doesn't seem too rough and excessive for a novice. He ranked second in the scoring list with an average of 28.8 per game, and third in the rebounding list with 14.5 rebounds. He was undisputed as the rookie of the year.

In the offseason, the Bucks played Gan Kun and got the last chip in their championship puzzle: oscar robertson, a 3 1 year-old super defender of Cincinnati Royals. With the combination of "Big O" and "Heavenly Dog", and the elite soldiers such as Bobby Dandridge, Jon mcloughlin, greg smith and Lucius Allen, Milwaukee played a shocking 66 wins in 1970-7 1 season, leading the league, including a record 20-game winning streak. With the perfect performance of averaging 3 1.7 points (the first in the league) and 16 rebounds (the fourth in the league), Alkindor was crowned his first MVP statuette. Bucks 12 wins and 2 losses in the playoffs, and the Baltimore Bullets were swept 4-0 in the finals-the second time in NBA history-to win the championship for the third year. Alkindore undoubtedly added another finals MVP trophy to the honor book.

197 1-72 Before the start of the season, Alkindor converted from Catholicism to Islam and changed his name to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, which means "noble and powerful servant". In fact, he is indeed a noble and powerful player, and his position in Milwaukee is like a star in the sky. Defending the scoring champion and MVP with 34.8 points this season, Bucks won the division championship for the second time in four years. In the following season 1973-74, Jabbar won the MVP trophy for the third time, and all four important technical statistics ranked in the top 5 of the league: 27 points per game (third), 14.5 rebounds (fourth), 283 blocked shots (second) and 53.9% shooting percentage (third).

1974, Bucks returned to the stage of NBA Finals, but lost to the Celtics led by 6' 9 center David Cowens. Oscar robertson, 35, showed his old age in this series and was embarrassed by the Celtics' fast guard line. After the end of the season, "Big O" announced his retirement, and the golden age of Bucks came to an end. 1974-75 season, their winning percentage was 38 wins and 44 losses.

Despite his brilliant success in Milwaukee, Jabbar felt increasingly out of place in the city because of his religious beliefs and some problems in his life. He applied to the management to transfer to new york or Los Angeles, and Bucks manager wayne embry knew there was no hope to keep him, so he agreed. 1975, bucks sent Jabbar to beautiful city of angels, and they were rewarded by bridgman Jr., Dave meyers, Elmer Smith and Brian Winters. For Jabbar himself, he may not realize that the second dynasty of his career has gradually become a scale.

As early as two years ago, Chamberlain announced his retirement, and the Lakers soon experienced an overwhelming victory of 30 wins and 52 losses in the 1974-75 season. When Jabbar first arrived in the Lakers, he helped the team turn around the 65,438+00 victory. As usual, he won the fourth regular-season MVP of his career with 27.7 points and 16.9 rebounds.

In the second season, Lakers veteran Jerry West was invited to be the team coach, and the godfather quickly led the younger generation on the right track, winning the regular season championship with 53 wins and 29 losses. Where is Qiao Ba? Looking at his data list of averaging 26.2 points, 13.3 rebounds, 57.9% shooting percentage and 26 1 blocked shots, we can guess that the fifth MVP in eight years is in the bag again. This almost aesthetic fatigue record also tied the legendary bill russell. However, the Lakers received four brooms from the Trailblazers in the Western Conference finals, engraved with another glittering name: Bill Walton.

Despite Jabbar's efforts as always, the Lakers' record in the next two years is only hovering in the middle of the league. In the 1977-78 season, Jabbar was forced to sit on the sidelines for 20 games because he hurt his hand in a fight with Bucks rookie Kent Benson. Of course, there is good news. For example, young jamaal wilkes and norm nixon began to emerge, which also shows that the Lakers' ambition is not as simple as being a midstream team.

1979, the Lakers picked ervin johnson, a 6' 9 point guard at Michigan State University, with the first-round draft pick from the Jazz. His arrival officially kicked off the peak of the Lakers' dominance of the league for ten years, and also brought Jabbar five other championship trophies in his career. In the last 10 year of Jabbar's career, the Lakers used lightning fast break tactics widely known as "show time" and won nine division titles.

In the first year of magic, the Lakers won 60 games, 16 playoff games 12 games, and successfully advanced to the 1980 finals. In the sixth game, the famous rookie "Magic" replaced the injured Jabbar as the center. The reason was that Jabbar sprained his ankle badly in Game 5, when he had just scored 40 points and helped the Lakers win the crucial "Tianwang Mountain". The 33-year-old Tengu can't take part in the sixth game. At this time, the 20-year-old rookie magician stepped forward to help the Lakers beat the Philadelphia 76 ers with 42 points 15 rebounds and 7 assists, thus winning the championship. The significance of this season is that Jabbar, who averaged 24.8 points 10.8 rebounds per game, won the sixth MVP trophy in his career. This unprecedented record still hangs on the top of Huashan Mountain in NBA, and no one can match it.

In the following six seasons, Abdul-Jabbar kept the competitive level of at least 20 points per game, but with the growth of age, his rebounds gradually declined to 6-8 points per game. Due to proper maintenance and training, Jabbar's body shape has always been perfect, and his physical strength has ensured that he can still complete 32-35 minutes of high-intensity competition after his thirties. You know, most NBA players, at Jabbar's age, have already retired and gone home.

"He is the best athlete in sports history," Magic Johnson praised his comrades-in-arms to reporter gary smith. In the later period of his career, scientific and reasonable training and living arrangements became more and more important. He keeps competitive by practicing yoga and martial arts. At the same time, Jabbar will spend a period of meditation before each game to reduce the pressure of the game.

1On April 5, 984, Jabbar personally completed the moment of solidification in the game against Utah Jazz in Las Vegas. In an attack, he received a pass from Magic Johnson, turned around and showed his housekeeping skill "Tiangou", and basketball was about to enter the net. This goal marks the milestone that Jabbar's career total score reached 365,438+0,420 points, surpassing Chamberlain to become the total scoring champion of the whole NBA!

From 1979-80 to 1988-89, 10, the mighty Lakers reached the NBA finals eight times and won the cup five times. The Celtics and the 76ers both won the championship twice, and the emerging Detroit also suffered a defeat. 1985 finals may be the most treasured memory of Jabbar in the next year. At that time, the 38-year-old Tiangou was considered by many experts to be on vacation. If we look at the performance in the first game, they are undoubtedly correct. Jabbar scored only 12 points and 3 rebounds against robert parish, and the Celtics washed the Lakers with 148: 1 14. This day was later called "Holocaust Day".

Feeling humiliated, Jabbar used his two-day break to watch the video of the game repeatedly, and used cruel marathons and anaerobic exercises to maintain his physical strength, so that head coach Pat Riley had to force Jabbar to stop for rest many times.

In the second game, Jabbar's sleeping lion suddenly woke up. He scored 30 points 17 rebounds, 8 assists and 3 blocks like a volcanic eruption. The Lakers retaliated with 109: 102. In the end, the Lakers beat the Celtics 4-2. In these four victories, Jabbar averaged 30.2 points 1 1.3 rebounds, 6.5 assists and 2 blocks per game. A particularly touching scene is that Jabbar took off his backboard and ran across the court alone, scoring two points with his hook, and even fell to the ground for a foul ball. Deeply shocked, Pat Riley told Sports Illustrated: "Did you see it? There is something called passion. " With the miraculous performance of Laoshu in spring, Jabbar won the MVP of the finals that year.

Jabbar later recalled that the champion ring of 1985 was perhaps the sweetest and most memorable of the six rings in his showroom. The reason is that it comes from the devil's Boston Garden Arena. You know, just a year ago, the Celtics defeated them here, not to mention the humiliation and tears that the Lakers endured here during Russell's rule.

1986-87 season, the Lakers beat the Celtics again and won the championship. This time, the "magician" stole all the light, and Qiao Ba just played the role of a green leaf conscientiously. Jabbar's score fell below the 20 mark for the first time this season, with only 17.5. But the Lakers still chose to renew Jabbar's contract for two years, which is 40 years old. Facts have proved that their choice is correct. The following year, after a hard struggle, the Lakers finally won the championship by standing on the body of Pistons, which made them the first champion to successfully defend their title after 1969 Boston.

1988-89 season is Jabbar's farewell season, and the Lakers once again entered the finals against the Detroit Pistons. Abdul-Jabbar burned his last energy in Game 3 and contributed 24 points 13 rebounds. However, due to the injuries of Magic and Byron Scott, the Lakers suffered a tragic sweep. In the last game of his career, Jabbar scored 7 points and 3 rebounds. Jabbar's shooting percentage this season is only 47.5%, which is lower than half for the first time in his career, and his score has also dropped to the lowest 10. 1.

Jabbar's retirement marks the end of an era in NBA. He is drifting away with the title of total scoring champion in history-this honor may never be broken. His character list is filled with 38,387 points (averaging 24.6 points),17,440 rebounds (averaging165,438+0.2), 3 189 blocked shots and 55.9% shooting percentage. He also set an astonishing record of scoring in double figures in 787 consecutive games.

After retiring for many years, Jabbar once told the reporter of Orange County Chronicle: "What I did in the 1980s was enough to offset all the abuse and accusations people made against me in the 1970s. I am more patient than all the critics. When I retired, people gave me enough respect. Many things will really change slowly. "

After taking off his uniform, Jabbar once joined the entertainment circle and played the role of "basketball promotion ambassador" many times. He used to be a coach and an announcer, and he also spoke out against hunger and illiteracy. 1995, the great Karim Abul-Dzhabbar successfully entered the naismith Basketball Hall of Fame.

Supplementary answer: high school.

Jabbar was born in Harlem, a black community in new york. His original name was Ferdinand Lewis Algindore. He is the only child in the family. He was taller than other children since he was a child, and he stood out everywhere. His slim figure is often regarded as a monster by other children. In junior high school, in order to master the skill of hook shooting, Jabbar often practiced alone in the dark in the unlit gymnasium and climbed in through the high window when entering and leaving the gymnasium. Jabbar led his high school alma mater, Power Memorial College, to win the new york Catholic School Competition for three times, creating a brilliant record of 765,438+0 winning streak, with a total score of 96 wins and 6 losses.

In the NBA draft of 1969, Phoenix Suns and Milwaukee Bucks competed for Jabbar by guessing coins. As a result, the latter was lucky enough to win Jabbar's joining. In his first year with the Bucks, Jabbar increased the Bucks' record from 27-55 in the first year to 56-26. At that time, Bill Russell, the main center of Boston Celtics, had retired. Although wilt chamberlain is still imposing, he is 35 years old after all. So Jabbar became the most powerful new generation center in NBA as soon as he debuted. He ranks second in the league in scoring (28.8 per game) and third in rebounding (14.5 per game).

197 1 year, the Bucks acquired 3 1 year-old veteran Robertson from Cincinnati Royal Team through transfer, which made Jabbar even more powerful. When the bucks swept the Los Angeles Lakers 4-0 in the finals, they won the NBA championship for the first time. In the six seasons of Bucks, Jabbar was elected as the MVP player four times with 197 1, 1972, 1974 and 1976 respectively, which was the first peak of his basketball career.
