Bird was a serious tough guy, but Kareem was trained in Jeet Kune Do by Bruce Lee. A 7'2" Kareem that learned how to fight by Bruce Lee could do some damage if he ever side-kicked Larry with those long legs. I too am a martial arts instructor but you're right about one thing. Birds toughness and street fighting ability wins this one.
Have you seen _5 Times Bird Refused To Quit_
AND
_4 Crazy Stories.... Larry Bird_
Love to hear/see your reaction to them both.
Especially the Pistons team,they always have a rule for great players opposing them,an example is the Jordan rule
Every opposite team always try to take LARRY THE LEGEND BIRD out of the game to have better chances of winning
