Ironically KAJ thinks Oscar is the best player to ever play.

Yes, in a recent interview he said Oscar would have whooped everybody in 1 on 1 too, and the conversation was surrounding MJ, Kobe, LeBron, etc. Kareem thinks extremely highly of Oscar. So, while this thread in the opinion of some might make Oscar look bad because Kareem is taking the higher road by not being such a salty veteran, its coming from the same guy who heralds Oscar as GOAT status.

Carried, but missed play offs the very next season after Oscar retired after having the best record in the league.

I think KAJ means skill. If you have to learn it, it's a skill. If you're born with it that's talent.

Steph didn't learn how to shoot like that, its a god given talent. Shooting touch is a talent

And Oscar probably doesn't get the credit he deserves because he was a sort of early union activist who Stern blackballed because of it. He was never in any documentaries or invited as an announcer.

He should have no more or less bias towards Oscar than any of his other teammates, peers or contemporaries he's ever had - which is a lot of players being that he played 20 years through several eras. And his comments such as his praise for Curry, or his documentaries he's made about the Harlem Rens which predated even the Harlem Globetrotters show he's also pretty objective and capable of great admiration towards players even from eras he didn't play in - past or current. You can have your cake and eat it too, he gave a great and genuine compliment towards Curry, be happy.
