  I hope all the best to the "Captain" while he fights his battle with this disease.

  Luckily it doesn't sound like it's anything that is going to shorten his life or anything since he's being treated. So I reckon that's a good thing.

  If it's not life threatening espn is going way over the top with it. I thought he was dead for a while because they said "tragic news about Kareem Abdul jabbar. After the breAk. "

  Luckily he's in a position financially to be able to get the best treatment for this....Hopefully Sweet Lew will be ok!

  I don't care for the Lakers but I have great respect for Kareem. A wonderful player and a fine man. I wish him the very best in his battle.
