Jordan was allowed to be Jordan when the league developed into a cash cow but Julius Ervings ABA game saved both leagues through the merger because everybody especially the NBA wanted to see him in the televised NBA where the money and more fans were...sucks that he and Wilt had to be asked not to be the dominant players that they were despite how much it benefited the league especially later on.

Jordan was unstoppable in a different way, with his speed and accuracy. I actually didn't like Jordan all that much while growing up, but as an adult I definitely see the argument for Jordan being GOAT... One of the major things I hadn't realized as a kid was that Jordan didn't really shoot 3 pointers. That says a lot to his skills and style of attacking the rim when he has such a high career PPG and FG% but got there with only 1/4 the amount of 3 pointers that Lebron James has.

@@idontexist1681 Agree completely. And even though Wilt was a lot bigger than Bill Russell (RIP), Russell's team beat Wilt's team like 75% of the times they played each other! No question Wilt was one of the best of all time, I just have never seen how he qualifies as THE best of all time!

I firmly believe Wilt was the best. He had the conditioning of a truely elite track and field athlete, could compete favorably in strength training against all but struck power lifters, and had to hold back on so many occasions to avoid hurting other players. The game changes with time, and while I think the playmaking strateg, footwork, and shooting skills of todays players is above where Wilt was in his time, those are learned skills that I have no doubt Wilt could also learn if he had been born half a century later. Wilt will probably always be the goat. There are only a few deserving consideration for the title, and Michael is on the list along side Labron. It is those two and Wilt. Without question Wilt has it. Media attention and crazy sponsor deals make Michael and Labron bigger names, but I’d rather have Wilt on my team if I could only choose 1 of those three players.

Wilt was superhuman. 7 ft tall, above 50 inch vert, insane burst, insane strength. Unreal.

Stats don't make you a good player what you do for your team makes you good. Stepping down from being the best to help your team shows you gave respect for your team and are selfless.

Study how his influence shaped the entire way the game was & is played. (The only other player that has had that kind of cultural impact is Steph Curry. Another conversation for another time) One year he played MORE than 48 minutes a game. TRANSLATION: He played every minute of every game, including overtime.

And before u say the guys he played against were bums, do me a favor: Go in your neighborhood, get 5 kids, get another guy to be on your squad, then go to the park and play. You and your boy shoot, rebound play defense and run up & down the court til YOU score 100. Shot free throws if you want. Just score in 3 digits. I can all ready tell you, brotha, you gotta be working your butt off. Oh yeah the year he hung a 100 on the Knicks , he AVERAGED 50 points a game.

But some context is needed in evaluating Wilt, as a Center, versus other Centers. Then adjusting for comparisons to guards or forwards. From an athletic standpoint, Wilt was undoubtedly the greatest athlete the NBA has ever seen, and was way ahead of this time. His rebounding and shotblocking was off the charts as a result. But his offensive skills were very rough, especially early in his career. The other aspect to this context is the lane width changes. Wilt played 6 seasons for Warriors from 1959-65. The lane used to resemble a "key", which is why they called it the key and it was only 6' wide up until 1952. George Mikan was a great player, but he certainly benefited from the 6' wide lane ... i.e. in the low post, he was less than 3' from the rim on either side. So when Wilt started playing the NBA in 1959, the lane was 12''. So in the low post, he could set up less than 6' from the rim. However, per below stats and link, Wilt shot just 50% FG his first 6 seasons. And once the lane widened from 12' to 16', he did get smarter/more selective in his shots taken and by 1966 was definitely passing more a few years into his Sixers stint. But if you look at Wilt's ppg and FG % after the lane was widened from 12' to 16', his scoring numbers are very comparable to Shaq, who was shooting around or above 60% FG his entire career ... not just the 5 years Wilt did it. So Shaq shot 58% FG for his entire 19 year career playing with the 16' lane. So scoring wise, Shaq was every bit as great if not better across his whole career. Though he was not as dominant a rebounder as Wilt, nor the athlete Wilt was .. compared to rest of league. Though Shaq started as a great athlete, just couldn't keep the weight off. But Shaq could argue the rules and the game changed a lot since the days most centers avg'd 15-25 rpg ... the rules favored traditional centers in the 60's and 70's. So centers could hang around much closer to the basket and snag more easy rebounds. PLus very few centers could ever stretch the floow to 15' much less a 3 pt line. Look it up ...lots of centers avg over 15 rpgs in 60's and 70's ... very common for guys you never heard of nor are hall of fame or even all stars. Getting 15 rpgs in todays game/rules is far more difficult, especially with what the 3 pt line and defensive 3 seconds as done to the game to spread the floor. Bottom line, Wilt is way up there, arguably #2 or 3 GOAT. But noone won and dominated all phases of the game, offense, defense, transition. Plus combined that with great athleticism and nonstop effort, amd lastly played with no fear of any moment. Stat junkies have done analysis to prove Jordan (as a guard) was statistically the best ever .. take all stats relative to the position played. So when you consider all the Jordan tangibles and then the intangibles and the 6 rings, Jordan is the GOAT. Wilt couldn't carry a team to a championship like Jordan ... he just couldn't, or he would have.

Wilt is the combination of Shaq and Giannis.

The 4 sport records likely to be the toughest to beat, if ever are: [1] most points in an NBA game - 100 scored by Wilt Chamberlain. March 2 1962 vs NY Knicks. 2nd highest is Kobe Bryant with 82. [2] fastest 50 goals in NHL - Wayne Gretzky scoring 50 goals in 39 games. The 2nd fastest 50 goals is Mike Bossy in 50 games. [3] Most assists in NHL - Wayne Gretzky 163 in 1985-86 season. 2nd most assists is also Gretzky with 135 in 1984-85 season. 3rd Gretzky 125 assists in 82-83 season. 4th also was Gretzky with 122 assists in 1990-91 5th, you guessed it Gretzky with 121 assists in 86-87 season. The only person to come close to Gretzky, if you can call it that is Mario Lemieux in 6th spot for most assists in a season with 109. [4[ Most points in NHL season - Wayne Gretzky with 215. 2nd most points goes to Mario Lemieux with 199. Now I bet this list can be added to but when it comes to records in NBA to stand the test of time they’ll come up more Wilt than Michael Jordan. Wilt was to the NBA as Gretzky was to hockey. And I already see 1 post below by @11DNA11 to prove this point: MJ scored 50+ points 31 times in his career. Wilt scored 50+ in 45 games of ONE SEASON. Gretzky & Wilt were and still are the Goats of their sport and league.

Wilt played in an era that had 70+% white American born players in it throughout his career that’s not the NBA. For example, there are 5% white American born players in today’s game. That’s a gigantic drop off. The first black person wasn’t even aloud to play basketball till 1950 and even after racism plagued the sport. Wilt was a finesse player who was defended by one person. Wilt never had to match up with so many African Americans and never with European players. The average height and weight was shorter/lighter back in Wilts era. Shaq was so good they changed the rules in 2001 like front court players being able to play zone and implementing the def 3sec rule. I have never seen a player once he catches the ball have two guys immediately on him the way Shaq did. The 50’s, 60’s and 70’s is the ABA era the real NBA started in the 80’s 90’s 2000’s. I’m not saying Wilt couldn’t play 90’s & 2000’s basketball but to think he would be as great as he was when he played with the Sixers I’m sorry your crazy. Back when Wilt played you could shoot the foul shot then immediately go get the ball smh lol Shaq would’ve loved that easy money.

Most of us didn’t watch Wilt Chamberlain play in his prime. So it’s hard to say he’s the GOAT. But Wilt was the most freak athlete to ever walk the face of the earth. To be 7’1 with his speed strength and skill. He probably could destroy MJ in 1v1.

He was 7 ft 1, benched 500, ran track, played volleyball, god knows how many other sports, and had a 48-inch vert and outstanding defense. he is so underrated.

Okay, let's put that in perspective. The majority of NBA level players are exceptional athletes with superb hand-eye coordination. They would all be good track and field athletes or volley-ball players. As for the bench pressing and 48-inch vert, that is anecdotal and highly, highly unlikely. I have seen the footage of his track and field exploits. Impressive but not world class. Someone with his arm length does not bench-press that much and the 48-inch vertical, where was that ever measured? The highest ever recorded vertical was 46-inch. A 7ft1 player jumping 2 inches higher? Urban myth. He was incredibly dominant and still teams traded him in his prime. He was obsessed with stats but not necessarily with the one that mattered most, winning titles.

Jay Dee and Blue Ray, Wilt was the better athlete overall, Ran a 4.5 40, had a 40+ Vert which probably was much higher, could bench a whole 500, and he was versatile and would dominate in any position he was put in. Want him to be a scorer? He averages 50 points a game in a single season, want him to be a good rebound guy? He averages 20+ rebounds his entire career. Not to mention his success playing other sports after his basketball career such as Volleyball. Jordan was the best of his time without a doubt, but if it came to pure athleticism and who is the GOAT both statistically and who was the more dominant player, Wilt towers over Jordan.
