In recent weeks, the NBA world was shaken after the Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry picked himself as the best Point Guard of all time.

This started a debate that was split into two sides, the old guard defending the Lakers' showtime era legend Magic Johnson as the Point Guard GOAT and the new era fans that believe Stephen Curry is without a question the best point guard of all time.

When asked to choose who Kareem Abdul-Jabbar thinks is the best point guard of all time, the Lakers legend gave a surprising take as he didn't choose Magic or Steph Curry as the PG GOAT.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was asked who is the greatest point guard of all time. His response was: “I don’t think you’re going to want to hear this… Oscar Robertson, The Big O.” This without a doubt is a low blow from Kareem to his showtime era teammate Magic Johnson.

The probable reason why Kareem picked Oscar over Magic

Kareem's choice of Oscar over Magic should be taken with a grain of salt, as there was always friction between Kareem and Johnson because Magic was the rising star who was looking to establish himself and push his potential. Magic believed he should/could be the alpha.
