Wilt Chamberlain College Stats (1956-58): Points: 29.9 Rebounds: 18.3 Assists: N/A Blocks: 6.3

[@choward5430]

Doesn't include EGREGIOUS fouling sanctioned by NCAA referees. Doesn't include being bitten by a racist opponent. This is why Wilt left UK early. Ironically, the EGREGIOUS fouling continued in the NBA sanctioned by NBA referees!

[@PIP...33]

AT 6:06 (LOL AND LIAR MAGIC SAID ITS HIS OWN SIGNATURE NO LOOK PASS) WILT DID THIS IN 1958

[@hellothere3250]

What I notice about wilt he was well balance in strength. Normally tall centers are limited because they could seriously injure themselves. But wilt was all over the place speed, long jump, high jump, weights. Wilt was a one of a kind super athlete. That you witness if you are lucky in a lifetime. Thanks wilt for the entertainment

[@lanagorgeous9485]

he could also run a 400m in under 50 seconds and a 1/2 mile in under 2 minutes. I can't imagine any other center in history having that kind of speed/endurance. it's hard to imagine Shack being able to run an all out 1/2 mile at all. Looking at some of his college highlights he also had a touch from the perimeter, so a prime Chamberlain with all the benefits of the modern day athlete, nutrition, strength training, etc., would have easily adapted to today's game and he would dominate now just like he did in the 60's.

[@destytayzo77]

This what i say about wily the perfect body is about 6'3 6'3 220 wilt was 7 1 270 he was the first and probablu yhe only u foooter to fill out hia frame like a 6"3 6"4 person would. His physique was godly. Look at his neck muscles in some clips he looked like running back. Its the physique

[@bos3835]

People need understand he was scoring with JUMP SHOTS not dunks over 90% of the time. Shaq's skills is no comparison!

[@themaninblack8271]

It’s not entirely true most footage and people of the era do show they he did mostly score at the basket be it with post moves power moves or dunks and finger rolls etc. His bank shot was definitely a useful tool on top of things though.

He didn't need to play offensively single-handedly. The greatest player second only to Wilt.

@@brendanbloom3366 Russell was an elite jumper like Chamberlain. But, we never ever mentioned Russell. I don't think, we'll see two athletes of that caliber playing against each others in their prime! Chamberlain's sergent was measured at 39.6 or 40.35"; mentioned by the University of Kansas or the Philadelphia Warriors (depending on your source). We aren't sure about Russell though. Both excelled in athletics events (high jumping and running) : High Jumping : * Bill Russell = 6 feet 9 1/4 In 1956, he was the 7th best jumper in the WORLD! * Chamberlain = 6 feet 6 3/4 440 Yard Dash : * Russell ran in 49.6 seconds * Chamberlain ran in 48.9 seconds!

[@jooyichen]

Freeze frame @4:24 that is absolutely ridiculous. I'll definitely accept a 7'1 Wilt to have had a 50-inch vertical. All this hype about the 2023 draft and 7'3 Wembanyama. No one even comes close.

[@danielgray65]

Wilt is recorded at 48 inch vertical, best in NBA history. Looking at his jumps in some games, I think he got to 50 inches, but nothing more than the 48 as an official recording. Shaq would have been eaten alive by this man. Chamberlain is the best fadeaway shooter the NBA has ever seen. He'd bully Shaq in the post and if not, just shoot his fadeaway bank shot all day. People forget that Chamberlain was a God tier shooter from the 12-18 foot range. MJ and LeBron top 3 ever, but they are not WILT. The greatest athletic speciman in human history.

[@YehShano]

@@danielgray65 Shaq was far more aggressive than Wilt so it would’ve been interesting to see if Wilt would change his game to try over aggress Shaq…Wilts vertical wasn’t that high though, he’s notoriously full of shit

[@jonny15dk]

Wilt according to the players that played him and with him said he held back his full power. Shaq's vertical reach is lower than Wilt's. Shaq would be posterized by dunks. Also Wilt would do that reverse finger roll over Shaq. That finger roll when Wilt was prime was literally unblockable more than Kareem's skyhook. Wilt would average 30 and 20 on Shaq. Thats just a Conservative estimate on the lower end. High end 35 PPG.

[@YehShano]

@@jonny15dk it’d go both ways, Shaq in his prime would be dunking hard on Wilt to…it’d be fantastic to watch

[@ivan24zg]

he is high jumping 6'6 in the air at 0:10 using old technique so his vertical is not that surprising. I can't think of any other seven footer to be able to pull off that high jump. if you look at his acceleration at 1:59 and 2:02 it's just absurd, because he actually needs to SLOW DOWN after crossing half the court to be able to complete the play. his quads must have been godlike.

If great defensive play consisted of blocked shots, Wilt would be the unchallengeable greatest defensive player in NBA history. I think it's clear that defense consists of more than blocked shots but I don't see a metric that would deny Chamberlain's greatness on defense. It would only be a question of whether he was better than Russell overall. I suspect he would be but I'm not sure. Russell's defense fundamentals were superb.

No matter how hard you guys try, Michael Jeffrey Jordan is the Goat and will always be the Goat. Amongst your small groups, you can play with your delusions of Wilt and Russell, but if you’re not blind and/or deaf, then you will admit that all of you who have constantly tried to dethrone Michael Jordan from the highest throne of thrones, has utterly failed! And you will continue to fail for Wilt and Bill are not even in the Goat discussion. And as of last season, LeBron James was officially removed from the Goat conversation. Once you all realized that LeBron James had utterly failed to dethrone the Goat of goats aka Michael Jordan, you desperately started reaching far back to Bill Russell, Kareem Abdul-Jabar, and Wilt Chamberlain. I don’t know why you people hate Michael Jordan. He is the most humblest man considering that he is not only viewed as the Goat of basketball and the NBA (this is old news and too obvious), but Michael Jeffrey Jordan is viewed as the greatest professional athlete in American history, which means that he’s in the conversation of being the greatest pro athlete in world history. Michael Jordan is in the conversation with Jackie Robinson, Muhammad Ali, and the Greco-Roman gladiators of early world history. So to say that Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player in history, is to say that the sky is blue in the daytime. So imagine uploading KZbin videos to try to convince 1 or 2 bitter haters that reality is not real. Yes Wilt, Kareem, and Russell were great even though all three men can’t dribble the basketball without putting their head down and looking at the rock or the court floor, but they are all so far inferior to Michael Jordan, that it’s not even worth debating. Every man and boy in the NBA, NCAA, college, high school, middle school, elementary school, kindergarten, and pre-school decided to pick up a basketball because they all wanted to be like Mike. Every woman and girl in the WNBA, NCAA, college, high school, middle school, elementary school, kindergarten, and pre-school decided to pick up a basketball because they all wanted to be like Mike. Hopefully you all can face reality because your delusional lies are not working and they will never work. ✌️
