cute scaper

What name, I missed it.

Decades.

in my mind, Wilt is the GOAT!

@@ronbonora7872 I agree 💯

2 rings. All he needed to do is make a little more free throws to win the tight games against the C’s. He didn’t. Great numbers in regular season Good numbers in playoffs Average numbers in the Finals That Jordan guy? Yeah I’ll stop here before you get humiliated.

​@jogendron6320 , Wilt Chamberlain was the most hard fouled basketball player in any era, the Boston Celtics hired enforcers to elbow Wilt Chamberlain on and off-the-ball aswell... Jordan had little to complain about Compared to Wilt...the rules helped Jordan dominate in an expansion era and the same could be said about Shaquille O'Neal... Wilt one on one in the modern era, dominates more than in his era, instead of a Boston celtic player running in front of Wilt off the ball, giving Bill Russell the advantage of camping out in Wilts favorite fadaway spot forcing Wilt to dunk, with two or three players hanging off him or elbowing him... That's a major difference the nba let it happen!

quantae06 ofhim blocking the skyhook when he was old and had knees and scores jabber in basketball when he was old

quantae06 id like to play him im 5’3”

Yesssss

How do we get a perfect biopic?

The problem I guess is who would you get to portray him? It's difficult to find seven foot actors.

I was A student as a senior. My grades weren't great, but I was A student none the less :)

@@riverraisin1 I was 2nd in my class as a student. My dad asked me so who's first, I said, all of my classmates.

@@mhon7carlos824 😹

@@riverraisin1 Point being made is Wilt was clearly a star athlete with bright future, but still hit the books, which is not commonplace today.

Joe Biden was at the top of his class. Turns out the class was standing backwards.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 have you ever hear of Michael Jordan?

@@fredator76 Wilt Chamberlain on line ONE.

☝🏽

LOL

Unassisted!

Coolest statement of the Year! Yep, I'm already calling it.

Oh yeah. He was THE...LADIES MAN!

Larry Bird is on my list

That is my opinion also

Randy Brewer

Those are my 2 favorite players of all time

Maravich is not in the discussion. MJ, Wilt, Lebron, Oscar, Bill Russell, Kareem, Magic, Bird...Duncan... Hakeem... Shaq, Kobe...

I just hope he's not a bust like Greg Oden

He might be too hard on those peach baskets.

@Willie Gordon skinny how many skinny hold a state shut puts records?😂 if his that skinny and hold a state record its means his gifted strong

Teebo rough n tough n boom boom.. it’s a wonder basketball players didn’t use more protective clothing.

He was already playing in semi-pro Leagues around in surrounding areas of Philly as a senior.

@Bryan-Michael Dungee What does that mean? You do understand that he is still going against some of the best centers.

He can't jump 48in like he claimed though

@@fredator76 He could touch the top of the backbourd

@@karengaming6514 sure Karen... We can definitely see that from those clips 🤡😂😂😂

@@fredator76 Not in this video but in others lol

@@karengaming6514 no he couldn't, post the link or shut up e forever

Totally agree

@dominictant-Wilt is not even close to being basketballs goat. He is never mentioned when that debate comes up. In his day he was unmatched in hight and wingspan, when the average hight in the NBA was 6'3ish, he was almost a foot taller. Wilt displayed almost no PURE athleticism COMPARED to players from even as far back as the 80s, but he didn't need it in his era. Imagine Shaq as a rookie in 1959 when the average hight of a player was 6' 3ish, now Imagine Wilt as a rookie in 1992 when the average was almost 6'7ish. Shaq would no doubt have more points and rebounds than Wilt. Wilt in 1992 would have less points and rebounds than Shaq. I guess that's why it's said that one shouldn't compare eras.

@@smoothoperator9746 it's obvious you didn't watch him play

@@dominictant In person no, but I've seen a lot of film. And just as important I saw his competition, guys who wouldn't start or make it to today's NBA. I'm not saying he wasn't great, he was, the best in his day/era. I mean seriously look at the style of play in the video. Then look up LeBron at 17 or Kobe. Granted they're not centers but still. There are too many variables when comparing eras. Would Jim Brown be Jim Brown in today's NFL. I think not. A 230lb rb/fb in 1957, he was bigger than most line backers and not much smaller than some linemen, BACK THEN. Anyway I respect ur opinion, but respectfully disagree...cheers

Wilt is by far the greatest of all time and it's not close. His physical ability has not been matched in the last 60 years and he would no doubt dominate in any era.

Marty Glickman - a great sprinter who qualified for the 1936 Olympics in Berlin.

@@russellhenderson381 Yes, he trained with and qualified to compete in the 4 x 100 relay team. The night before the event, Glickman and Sam Stoller were replaced, a decision made by Avery Brundage. Since Glickman and Stoller were both Jewish, many feel it was a decision made "to not offend Hitler". Sadly, Marty Glickman and Sam Stoller were denied the opportunity to win Gold Medals.

😂😂

You might say they "wilted."

A series like showtime would be better

Hater

Ye most of his block were goaltend smh

ZiNeck TV you gotta understand that there were no such thing as goaltending. It was made up because of Wilt

Both of you guys are way off, defensive goaltending was made in 1946, offensive goaltending was made in 1958 because of Bill Russell when he was in college, Wilt never played an nba game without goaltending rules

3 point line was the ABAs invention long after wilts retirement.

@@samwelsh8241 actually it was made in 1969 for the aba, the nba adopted it in 1979, also Wilt and the nba all star teams would play against aba teams. There is video on KZfaq of Wilt vs Artis Gilmore and there was a 3 point line

Only 2 blondes must been slowong down

Thurmond and Counts were among Wilt's teammates during his career.

if this narrative that just because you're taller you're immediately better is true, shawn bradley would be goat

This video is referring to his high school competition....not the NBA

he was anything but a stilt!!!

And champion in the high jump in the Big 8

imo bball doesn't suit him best, he was fast but his quickness wasn't on the same level as his speed. Speed is useful in quarter mile because there is more room for you to run up to your full speed but in basketball it's all about moving within 5-9m most of the time you can't get nowhere near your full speed, you need quickness to keep up with people in short bursts, in bball you need more quickness than speed, he's package was the opposite so bball was not his stong suit. He was also very skinny so if he faced bigs around his height but bulkier he is at a big disadvantage because those guys may be both quicker and heavier than him. Just to add 7'1 isn't that tall for a NBA centre tbh.

@@zhongtiger6575 yeah too bad he he didn't do that well in the NBA. he only holds all the important records and shit. you might have heard about a 50 point average for an entire season? a 100 point game? SMH.

Shaq could do the shot put no problemo. Shaq was every bit as good as Chamberlain. Shaq in the Chamberlain's era would have had similar numbers.

@@AlexZander688 Just to be clear, Wilt Chamberlain was undefeated in the shot put both high school and college. His top throw was about fifty six and a half feet.

Stop it. Russell won 8 of 10 while he was in the league, whereas Chamberlain won 1 of 10. Chamberlain played with 6 of the top 50 players (at the 1996 50th anniversary), whereas Russell only played with 4. During his career, Wilt played with players that were 24 time all-stars, Russell with 26. Chamberlain played with a hall of fame coach, still not enough. Russell was the head coach 3 of the years he played and in that time period won twice as many as Wilt did in the full 10 years they were in the league together, and as many as Wilt won his entire career.

He could do anything against bad teams yeah. His numbers go down in the playoffs and even more in the finals. You know, when good teams play.

Marty got “robbed”in Berlin

It's because it's not video. It's actually film newsreel. They went there with a professional National crew to film Wilt Chamberlain because he was a national story as a teenager.

@LaRue Mathis yes i did! That was insane

It's also worth noting the rules were different when he was in high school. When you were dribbling, you can only strike the ball directly on top. You couldn't do all that palming and crossing over like you can in today's game. And his day, you practically had to slap the ball on the top for it to be correct.

@@shaunphillips9693 palming came with magic and Mike in the 80’s , see West Oscar, Cousy and Pistol Pete , they could dribble

@@chipschannel9494 That's why everyone from today's generation thinks the players from the 60s and 70s aren't as good. Because they don't look like they could dribble as well as today's players. Problem is they're playing by a different set of rules. If today's players played in the 1960s, they would not be able to make it down the court without being called for traveling. Not because they're bad. Just because the rules are different.

Wilt could dribble so well that he played with the Harlem Globetrotters while waiting for the NBA season to start. Unbelievable, no look behind the neck passes, PHENOM.

And it shows how great Kareem's sky hook was the even Wilt rarely was able to block it.

Wilt Chamberlain Archive, good post as usual, straight up

WCA word

You’re dreaming. Wilt blocked that skyhook consecutively in one sequence. Both times playing off of Kareems body. Watch the footage again. If Kareem got you body to body, there’s no way anybody blocks that shot. To remotely believe that Wilt blocked that shot 23 times, is a JOKE! I did see Kareem block Wilt as many times as Wilt got him.

@@marksheppard6498 Wilt blocked the sky hook twice on the same play, one Jabbar moving to the left shooting it right handed and again after Jabbar recovered the loose ball moving to the right and shooting it with his left. Wilt was a beast. When Wilt teamed up with the Logo Jerry West they won 33 regular season games in a row and that record still stands today. You can't get these prima donnas to play 33 games in a row. smdh

Wilt has the record, 28 made free throws in 1 game.

Bob Cousy was a minor bench player for the last several championships. 4 , 5 minutes per game... look it up. Havlicek was more valuable for the last 4..

Wilt and Russell, when you drove the lane and dunked on them at your own peril,
