I think he's the greatest...but my dad says that he didn''t work hard enough on defense. And he says that lots of times, he didn't even run down court. And that he didn't really try... except during the playoffs.

So maybe that.

Well in his defense, he DID have to drag Lanier and Walton up and down the floor for 48 minutes...

His last couple of years he shouldn't have been out on the court. He was so slow, there were times he got easy points when the Lakers would get a rebound and hit the fastbreak, passing to Kareem still on the other side of the court.
