Kareem wished he could work with Dwight

[*Swish*]

While Kareem Abdul-Jabbar has lost interest in becoming a coach, he wishes he could have had a chance to give instruction to Dwight Howard.

 

"I think I could have shown him a few things that would have helped his game a lot," said Abdul-Jabbar. "Such an incredible athlete. There are a few blind spots in his game just because he didn't stay in school long enough to get all of that down, but just really an incredible athlete."

 

Abdul-Jabbar also talked about his desire to coach.

 

"That starts to wane now," said Abdul-Jabbar. "I'm 63. I'll be 64 next month. I haven't gotten an opportunity at this point. I'd hoped that maybe I could have gotten into a college program, but it wasn't there for me. The opportunities that I’m getting now as a filmmaker are appealing, and I intend to pursue those."

 

Abdul-Jabbar worked with Andrew Bynum for several seasons.

I totally understand Kareem.. I mean, Dwight is a really cool player to hang out with. He's really nice and is the funniest player in the NBA. Also a hard worker.

[Buckets!]

Dwight should work with him, if Dwight devlops that hook. DAYUM!

LOL, I don't think Kareem wanted to go to the cinema and get a pizza with Dwight... he would've been helping him with his game

Kareem might get his wish if all these rumors are true of Dwight Howard really wanting to play in LA and that is where is heart of heart is.
