Hoss would give up about nine inches in height to Kareem, but if he could hit the outside shot, he might have a chance to compete!

...The Planet X gets it's first telecast of BONANZA and sets up a system of government based on the Roy Coffee way of doing things. Sort of like those people on the Planet Sigma Iota II in Star Trek's "A Piece of the Action".

Kareem appeared with Bruce Lee in the 1973 flick,"Game Of Death",and many people to this day still don't know that Kareem Abdul-Jabbar became a very good,accomplished martial artist under the direction of Bruce Lee and certain aspects of Bruce Lee's JKD system.

I was never sure if Jabbar ever learned any of the joint locking,pinning,throwing,submission locks,or grappling aspects of Bruce Lee's system,but he was very good at punching and especially kicking with those Huge Size 22 feet of his!

Two very different body types there.

One thing about Dan Blocker, he wasn't really tall. I've seen him on Gunsmoke with James Arness and The Rifleman with Chuck Connors and both tower over him. He might have been 6-0 or 6-1.
