It\'sTaaj Jaharah, an innovative New York trainer and therapist whose work on agility and flexibility basically throughout his career helped Kareem Abdul-Jabbar play until he was 42 and at a high level.\"I have worked with him (Stackhouse) since his rookie year in Philly,\"Jaharah said in an email.\"He has been fastidious in his desire to continue to retrain and to maintain his ease of movement, a truly dedicated athlete. They don\'t last 18 years in the league without that.\"It\'s a great lesson for young kids. Players like Abdul-Jabbar and Stackhouse realized when they were kids that training their bodies for that sort of flexibility would extend their careers
