Ferdinand Lewis (Lew) Alcindor Jr. now known as Kareem Abdulah Jabbar hates President Trump and Americans who paid him far more money than most people can even think about to play basketball. PLAY.. Jabbar did what many children do as an adult. He Played. He played basketball. That’s it.
He’s worth about $20 million after squandering the equivalent of about $5 million a year (about $100 million) over his 20 year career
He changed his name, religion and loyalty to America but he once said: “Don’t be so quick to judge” – and: “Who would know better how to define their outrage:,” Abdul-Jabar asked, “the privileged darling of white supremacists, the 94 percent-white team owners, the 75 percent-white head coaches or the 70 percent-black players who actually take the field each week?”
Kareem gained a rotten reputation for being arrogant, dismissive, dumb as a box of rocks and downright mean to fans and the press. In his book Josh Perlman who wrote: “Showtime” about the 1980s Lakers, called Jabbar the most “socially retarded superstar” How about simply dumb because that’s how he acts.
