Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Shot Chart (1969-1980)

Couple more games added, quite a few of which are incomplete. There are some inconsistencies with the FGA in comparison to the shot chart, but I also kept track of the "Skyhook" statistic.

Very nice, thanks as always.

Just wondering, from the sample you used, how different were Bucks and Lakers Kareem?

With the Lakers he seemed to have a stronger base and was more on "cruise control", in terms of the game coming so easy to him at that point. With the Bucks he was quicker off the dribble and didn't rely on the hook shot as much as his later years, like 1980. Game 5 of the Finals that year is one of the all time underrated performances.

Do you think Bucks Kareem (71-74) was a better player than Lakers Kareem (75-80)?

Defensively his Bucks years looked better, and offensively I take the 1977 or 1980 version. This may be an incomplete answer since much of the Bucks footage is incomplete. I believe 1974 is up there as well for an overall peak season, but it is impossible to say with so little game footage.
