the rum soaked fist: internal martial arts forum

Kareem Abdul Jabbar was 25 when his friend and Jeet Kune Do teacher Bruce Lee died on July 20, 1973. The National Basketball Association (NBA) Hall of Famer, No. 2 all-time NBA scorer (and until surpassed by Lebron James this recently concluded season, the No. 1 all-time scorer), consensus greatest National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Men's Basketball player ever, a seven-time "Columnist of the Year" Award winner from the National Arts & Entertainment Journalism Awards, and most importantly, co-star of Bruce Lee's final film Game of Death, shares his recollections about his friend on the 50th anniversary of his untimely passing.
