It’s nice to have Wilt’s last basket of his career recorded for posterity in 1973.

The Bullets went to 4 finals in the 70s...I miss those days

[@martielobaton7842]

The bullets are the wizards in the past and I miss them so much for bringing the championship to DC in 1978

[@PoliticusRex632]

@@martielobaton7842 I gave up when they changed to the Wizards. To me they are not the same team. The Bullets are dead to me...just memories.

[@tonygajate5780]

grew up watching the Big E, Bobby Dandridge, Kevin Grevey, Unseld, that was one hell of a team

[@harrywilliams5523]

so much love for the warriors

Even though this is definitely still in the plumber era which means they would get smoked by the 80s - current day nba players I totally see why these older heads in Basketball always claim their era was the best. Because Dr. J and Kareem had to wait in line for Russel and Chamberlain to finish their reign on the league in the 60s, and then Jordan had to wait for Kareem, Dr. J, Magic, and Bird to finish their reign in the 80s, and then Kobe and Duncan had to wait for Jordan to finish his reign on the league in the 90s, and then Lebron and Steph had to wait for Kobe, Shaq, and Duncan to finish their reign on the league in the 2000s.

[@JohnSmith-4U]

The game back in the 60’s seems so sloooooow compared to todays game

[@spitshinetommy3721]

That's because they're not shooting three-pointers on every possession.

[@WuTangFan1000]

Pretty much cause it was - it was super physical

[@Seanna104]

@@spitshinetommy3721 Na, its actually because they just sucked ass and were not skilled shooters anywhere on the court. Horrible efficiency, horrible jumpshots, horrible spacing. Just trash all around. Both teams would just miss and miss on every possession and keep turning the ball over. I can show you a billion times where these plumbers couldn't hit a wide open jumper to save their life. 80s-90s Basketball was the real Golden Age of basketball with real defense and real skilled shooters.
