"You can't win three Defensive Player of the Year trophies and be stupid. That can't be done," he said, according to the Houston Chronicle. "And I don't think any coach that has ever coached me has said I have a low IQ for basketball.

"Have I done some dumb stuff on the floor? Yes, every player has. Have I done some stupid things in life? Yes, it's life. We make mistakes and learn from them. It is what it is. I think I am very intelligent when it comes to the game of basketball. I have been playing since I was 3 years old. Each year, I get a little smarter.

At claiming not to be stupid and totally ignoring the point the GOAT made

Sasquatch gave no fukks.:laugh: Dwight took this better than I imagined he would have, I thought that comment Kareem made about having an easy job preparing Bynum and Gasol on how to stop Dwight was Etherous. Figured Dwight would have alot to say about that.

I agree Dwight handled it well, but he didnt even address the Ether KAJ. He mentioned hes a good Defensive playe but garbage Offensive

Yeah, I noticed that too.:laugh: What could Dwight really say though, he knows Kareem is right. His lack of goto moves does reflect on Dwight's basketball IQ, and Kareems sees that. It's true he has an impressive 3 DPOYs but you could argue he got them based just on his athletic abilities alone or atleast mostly due to that. Dwight is at the point of his career where his game should be evolving similar to Lebron's and it doesn't appear to be.

“I mean, he’s Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. If I’m Kareem, I’m like ‘why?’ Four championships, five championships, whatever (note: six). I’ve been in Airplane, did movies with Bruce Lee. I’m not worried about the young whippersnappers, you know. Just wish him good luck. But people do things different and when I’m done playing I’m going to do whatever I can to help the next generation get better.”

LOL @ dude not remembering KAJ offering him help and he refused it
