The Doctor, Kareem, and the New York Knicks

[EB]

What if Kareem and The Doctor, two New Yorkers and my two favorite basketball players of all-time, went to play for the New York Knicks (Winters’ stats, Bridgeman’s stats)? The Knicks may not have had to wait 53 years for another NBA title, may.

Note that Milwaukee had some touch playoff series with Seattle, Boston and Philadelphia during the late 1970s and early '80s.

Doc was drafted by the Bucks in the 72 draft( 12 overall) so he would have played with Peak Kareem & and aging Oscar Robertson. But Doc had done some sketchy signing with Atlanta & ended up just going to the ABA after some lawsuits.

A lot of legal stuff robbed us of peak Doc & Kareem playing together. Who knows if Kareem forces his way out of Milwaukee if he he had Doc?

Fifty years ago Dr J went to the Sixers right after winning the last ABA title with the Nets. We will see what Philadelphia will do with LeBron going there (article). Philadelphia went to the finals in that year.
