Wilt was an exceptional basketball talent and very well spoken man with a great sense of humor . He never really took life all that serious. A lesson maybe we all should learn
@@cavaleer Not every tall athletic dude can play basketball, especially at anywhere close to Wilt's level - very few can. So he definitely had to work hard on his game for years as a teenager in order to develop his skills to a high level.
Never knew wilt had jokes like this, wish we could’ve seen more of him. He’s always been an enigma to me but 100 pts / 20k women / high jump champ / 7’2 / AND he’s funny?! Legend.
When will people understand that when he says 20k women he means 1 women many times. Also it’s not “cool” to sleep around. It’s cool to stay committed to one person and build a real awesome relationship
Wilt only said that in the context of showing off, being a hot dog and embarrassing the other team. Remember, dunking was looked down on to the point that they outlawed it in college in the late 1960s. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar played college basketball and wasn't allowed dunk in his entire 4 year career at UCLA. In his day, dunking like Michael Jordan did was considered being an unsportsman like hot dog trying to embarrass your opponent. Chamberlain made the point that if Jordan tried that, the big men on the opposition would be looking to hammer him every single time he came down the lane. As Chamberlain said, I don't think he would get hit, I know he would get hit. The opposition wouldn't like him showboating. His own teammates wouldn't like him showboating, and the fans wouldn't I have gone for it either. That's why he made the comment about the coach benching him, just to get Michael focused back on playing basketball and not being a clown. He wasn't trying to say that Michael Jordan didn't have the ability to play in his era. He clearly said that Michael Jordan was a superstar who would be a superstar in any era. He would simply have to adjust his game to make sure it wasn't offensive to the other NBA players if he was playing in the 1960s.
@@alp6675 Doubt it. Young Wilt Chamberlain is the same height as Rudy Gobert, much stronger and with a documented vertical leap 10 inches higher than Giannis Antetokounmpo. Also 2 inches taller than the Greek Freak. He was a five sport track star in college, undefeated in the shot put, long jumping over 22 ft and high jumping 6 ft 7. He also ran marathons into his fifties, which explains why he averaged 48 1/2 minutes played per game for the entire 1962 season. He didn't get tired when he was young. He had incredible endurance. Like LeBron James and Joel Embiid both publicly said, Wilt Chamberlain was an athletic freak who would dominate in any era. Point blank. If Rudy Gobert could be an all-star, and two-time defensive player of the year, Wilt Chamberlain would exceed that. He would lead the league in rebounding every single year and as a rim protector, nobody would score if they came anywhere within 10 feet of the rim. Also, Chamberlain wasn't saying Jordan would be on the bench because of his talent. He said that Jordan's a superstar who would be a superstar in any era. Chamberlain was specifically referring to showboating while you're dunking a basketball. That was extremely frowned on in the 1960s and any big men on the opposing team would make it a point to knock you on your ass every time you came down the lane as punishment for trying to show up the other team. Like Wilt said, I don't think he would get hit, I know he would get hit. He only meant that Jordan's coach would bench him long enough to have a talk with Michael to get him focused on winning the game, not being a hot dog.
Wilt will always be a favorite of mine because of this one anecdote: During the 1968-69 NBA season, Wilt was in town to play the Boston Celtics. He arrived a day ahead of the game, and walked over to a nearby cinema complex to catch a film. My older brother was there with a date, and she was the cutest, little woman.. standing just under 5 feet. She recognized Wilt right away (at over 7 feet, he was easy to spot), and said to him, "Mr. Chamberlain, you're so tall, I could walk in between your legs." To which Wilt replied, "I wish you would, little lady, I wish you would." True story.
Wilt chamberlain seems like a really cool guy.... But at the same time he seems like that kid In elementary school who lied about everything all the time
@@youngkeazy2806 that one is actually true, supposedly so is the 600 bench press as verified by Arnold himself. The water skiing and women one were him being a goof.
Im not sure about the woman part but a 56 year old wilt did bench press 465 pounds so 600 isn't that unbelievable, i mean with his athleticism the 5 minutes of holding his breath could be true, i have no idea about the car one tho
Yep. And he's still pretty young here and hasn't fully perfected good craft yet like he is today (like how he operates on those interviews with Bill Burr). Amazing.
The NBA TNT crew is ruined by Kenny, I personally find him intolerable. I like Chuck, I usually like Shaq but not always, Earnie I don't really notice he's knowledgeable but kinda bland personality wise although he seems like a pretty good guy. I just can't watch Kenny.
Wilt was the ultimate bachelor. He drove fast. He loved lots of women. He had his own home built to his specifications. He was gregarious. But he was also a very kind human being under it all. He was for the most part a gentle giant.
He had Bill over for dinner and he let him nap in the afternoon before a game in his bed at his mom's. He helped Kareem along and gave him records and the clothes off his back. Seems like a good fellow to me. Bill insulted him and so did Kareem so it seems they had the problem not Wilt although Bill and Wilt reconciled their differences before he died.@@sharutamonud7698
He was a bullshit artist caressing simple minds naivenesses.. I'm not digging on his talent which is ofcourse undeniable.This guy however had a HUGE ego.
fast forward to 2015 and a 6'3 baby faced assassin who can barely dunk and pulls up consistenly from 35 ft is dominating the league basketball in the 2030s will become a constant half court shooting contest
I like how he politely tells Jordan , what you are doing is nice but as long as you do it around the 3pts line and not in my house , you won’t get destroyed 😂
@@Foralluhaterz he was a giant man made of pure muscle he could do it.. dont you think a superstar would be fact checked on something like that. Its talked about by many people how wilt was an absolute monster prime athlete with incredible strength
What Wilt doesn't mention about the night he scored 100 against the Knicks is that he lived in New York while playing for the Philadelphia 76ers. So he got a ride home with some Knicks players and they apparently weren't too happy with Wilt on the ride home. 🤣
What Wilt said when referring to MJ is exactly what I always think. Modern fans forget that when comparing older basketball players, and current players you have to take into account that customs were are different then so it isn't going to be a accurate comparison.
Wilt is also in the Volleyball Hall of Fame. Interesting guy, Conan did try to conduct a fairly great interview, but Wilt has got to do it his way, lol ☺
@@Williestyle-RobotechxMacross-x He got "fat" ( for him ) before the end of his NBA career, but he kept his body game in check for Volleyball. He was solid muscle for most of those volleyball years. I think he enjoyed being able to continue to compete without having to put his body in harms way.
Keeping in mind that a basketball game ending in regulation is 48 minutes long, it's interesting how Wilt could average 48.5 minutes per game for a whole season. The fact is - and there's stats for this, so this Chamberlain story at least is not BS - Wilt was on the court for all but eight minutes that entire season, and the only reason he was out those eight minutes is because he got ejected one game. Aside from that, he played every minute of every game, never fouling out, never going to the bench for a breather. With ten overtime periods to add to the eighty games he played that season, the math comes out to 48.5 minutes per game. Since he also averaged better than 50 points per game that season - another record that will probably never get broken - it seems unlikely his ability to play entire games was facilitated by taking plays off. Seriously, his stamina was unreal.
@@zanti4132 he’s the GOAT in my humble opinion! Led the league in assists one year. Played point guard for the Harlem Globetrotters. His records are astounding!
@@dbc7772011 There was about a four year span when Chamberlain was without doubt the most dominant player to ever play basketball. I mean, geez, several rule changes were made to make him LESS dominant. Contrast that to Mr. Jordan, the guy young 'uns like to call the GOAT, who got rule changes that helped his game. All those signature Jordan drives to the basket would have been called charges in the old days.
I mean...you are correct, we never know when our time to die will come...Last year, a 75yo high school buddy of mine, very athletic and slender, even after hitting 70+, suddenly died from a heart attack. He never mentioned that he might have medical issues. He might well have not even known about a heart problem.

The thing to remember about Wilt’s era is there were no 3-pointers, the guards were much worse at outside shooting and shot selection, and there was no 3-second rule, so players on both teams tended not to create as much space on the floor in the half court. Anybody ran up and down the floor fast trying to get off shots before the defense got in there to clog all the lanes, and then everybody crashed the boards. This favored fast, leaping big men with a lot of cardio like Chamberlain and Bill Russell. The dominant player coming out of that era was a guy who could score reliably without getting in the mess under the basket - Kareem. In Shaq’s day the rules were different and favored moving the ball around the outside and then going inside and outside with it. The dominant big men were mostly really big and strong and difficult to move, because you would mostly look for mismatches or one on one down low, maybe beating a double team - quick and explosive in the post, but not fast runners looking to leap over the whole other team to get rebounds. Yeah there’s Hakeem but he was one of a kind. If Shaq had played in Wilt’s era he would have been great, but he would have been entirely different. For one he would have been like 100 lbs lighter and would have played around the elbow and the top of the key a lot more than made sense in his era.
One factor to add was in Wilt’s day nobody really knew how to rebound. Oh they bang around, but if you look at the old game footage from his prime era, nobody boxed out - Wilt would follow his own shot and just run circles around guys to grab rebounds because he was faster, taller and more athletic. But Moses Malone revolutionized the rebounding game and every big man and power forward after him is different because of it (and of course Charles Barkley played with Moses early in his career). If Wilt played in Shaq’s era he would have needed to learn those techniques or he’d be constantly called for over the back fouls on shorter guys boxing him out. It would have reduced the advantage he had from his pure athleticism.
You couldn't play physical offensive basketball in the 60's. There's some video's floating around, but they show Wilt and Kareem getting called for offensive chargers for the barest of lowering their shoulders. If you pushed a defender off their spot, that was an offensive foul. So I'm not sure how Shaq thrives in that game. He didn't have a great outside shot, fade away, or hook, and wouldn't have been able to bulldoze his way to the rim. So I think Shaq would have looked like one of those other centers playing against Wilt at the time.
@@fenzelian Wilt would have played within the rules, so likely a less effective rebounder, but considering some of his other staggering stat lines, which was that he averaged near 45 minutes a game throughout his career, and never fouled out of a single professional game, I don't foresee him jumping over folk's back to get the rebound.
Shaq would have fouled out. He couldn't play the physical style he got away with back then. Even ticky tack offensive fouls were called back then. Also, Shaq did not have the stamina that Wilt and Russell had.
Wilt died 2.5 years after this interview, of congestive HEART failure. He looked and sounded great here at age 60. It's hard to imagine someone so young and full of life dying so young at 63, but I guess there is a penalty you pay for being over 7' tall.
Glad you did the math, and the math, for what he is claiming is complete bullshit. Maybe a few thousand, even that number is suspect. It's just basic math. If he took a week off he would have to have sex three times a day all with three different women. Absolute bullshit.
@@lightbeforethetunnel It was his sense of humor people. The man was extremely smart as well. So he used exaggerated humor in his communication to not come across as a snob. I guess it went over your head.
Wilt Chamberlain could be anyone's sports heroe for any era What a great guy an person as a sports heroe to grow up with Gone way to young We love an miss you Wilt Chamberlain!!
I was Very close friends with Wilt, and was supposed to go with him to pick out new furniture ( he was going to give me his old furniture, coffee tables, couches) I called the house the day before and the only thing he told me was that he wasn't sleeping well ... I told him I would check on him the next day, and when I did, I was told he had passed away, and I cried..... He was only 62.
He apparently had some sort of heart condition...really tall, big men frequently suffer from a heart that has become tired, after pushing blood around a huge, gangly body for 60+ years. There are exceptions of course--bill Russell was like 6'10", and lived to be 88.
If he were 'sleeping' he wouldn't know how many ......OR he was 'dreaming' he had these 'encounters' - he was with Harlem Globe Trotters - that was a FUN experience- he's got a sense of humor He was dreaming in Hog heaven one night and ......
I MET WILT & WE SHOOK HANDS. Born in New Jersey in 1949, our family went to a whole number of Harlem Globetrotters' games as our main form of outside entertainment during the year that they had this great "point guard"; what was his name, oh yeah, Wilt. I "followed" Wilt into the NBA the following year and have been a "rabid" NBA/ABA/NBL fan ever since. I actually MET Wilt once - in the San Diego sports arena - he was seated in the stands in the aisle seat when I went by going up the steps. I recognized him; stopped walking and he smiled that dazzling (and sympathetic) smile of his; and extended his hand to me - we shook hands ... and ... and I couldn't get out a word. I swore I'd never let that happen again; until just a few years later it did. I was running long distance (2.5 hours a day, year round) in San Diego's Balboa Park (the super-hilly sections); when I crossed paths with this giant of a man on a bicycle (which he absolutely dwarfed). I recognized him, it was Bill Walton - and once again I was speechless. Back to Wilt. Almost noone alive today KNOWS this about Wilt: that he was the exact opposite of a selfish guy. We heard about it back then - it was regular news. Wilt (sometimes accompanied by a college teammate) would go to restaurants that were "whites only" and deliberately sit in the front. He HAD TO KNOW that he could be killed at any moment for doing so - but he (personally) ended up integrating first Kansas and then the whole region around it. Someone that SELF-LESS could not have, a short time later, transformed into a selfish player. Heck, we knew, back then, that he'd often back off from absolutely dominating an opponent - out of sympathy.
Wilt lived a life most people can’t even imagine no wonder they think he made it up... if his games weren’t taped and his scores written down by others people would think his career was a fake. He too real!!!!!
Wether the 20.000 women number is real or not, it worked like a marketing campaign and it has become a landmark in popular culture (and it fitted perfectly with his self assured personality). So, the guys who published the book did a pretty job with Wilt's biography.
@@Stangleripkis I believe he did but those buns being 20,000 just doesn't sound realistic to me and it never did.If he said hundreds or even close to a thousand or somewhat over it I could've believed it. But those kinds of numbers I don't believe.There's a lot about those tall tales of his that don't add up when you really analyze them and think about what he was saying.
I find it ironic that Wilt Chamberlain believes the 90s era of NBA was soft. Simultaneously, Shaquille O'Neal believes this current era of NBA is soft.😂

MJ After Creating A Time Machine: “...And I Took That Personal “
thats bs ay...jordan would of done even better in wilts time
Wilt only said that in the context of showing off, being a hot dog and embarrassing the other team. Remember, dunking was looked down on to the point that they outlawed it in college in the late 1960s. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar played college basketball and wasn't allowed dunk in his entire 4 year career at UCLA.
In his day, dunking like Michael Jordan did was considered being an unsportsman like hot dog trying to embarrass your opponent.
Chamberlain made the point that if Jordan tried that, the big men on the opposition would be looking to hammer him every single time he came down the lane. As Chamberlain said, I don't think he would get hit, I know he would get hit.
The opposition wouldn't like him showboating. His own teammates wouldn't like him showboating, and the fans wouldn't I have gone for it either. That's why he made the comment about the coach benching him, just to get Michael focused back on playing basketball and not being a clown.
He wasn't trying to say that Michael Jordan didn't have the ability to play in his era. He clearly said that Michael Jordan was a superstar who would be a superstar in any era. He would simply have to adjust his game to make sure it wasn't offensive to the other NBA players if he was playing in the 1960s.
That's hilarious bro real talk mane hilarious!!!!😂😂😂 Dude don't be playing
More like Wilt would have been on the bench If he played in Michael's time.
@@alp6675 Doubt it. Young Wilt Chamberlain is the same height as Rudy Gobert, much stronger and with a documented vertical leap 10 inches higher than Giannis Antetokounmpo. Also 2 inches taller than the Greek Freak. He was a five sport track star in college, undefeated in the shot put, long jumping over 22 ft and high jumping 6 ft 7. He also ran marathons into his fifties, which explains why he averaged 48 1/2 minutes played per game for the entire 1962 season. He didn't get tired when he was young. He had incredible endurance.
Like LeBron James and Joel Embiid both publicly said, Wilt Chamberlain was an athletic freak who would dominate in any era. Point blank.
If Rudy Gobert could be an all-star, and two-time defensive player of the year, Wilt Chamberlain would exceed that. He would lead the league in rebounding every single year and as a rim protector, nobody would score if they came anywhere within 10 feet of the rim.
Also, Chamberlain wasn't saying Jordan would be on the bench because of his talent. He said that Jordan's a superstar who would be a superstar in any era.
Chamberlain was specifically referring to showboating while you're dunking a basketball. That was extremely frowned on in the 1960s and any big men on the opposing team would make it a point to knock you on your ass every time you came down the lane as punishment for trying to show up the other team.
Like Wilt said, I don't think he would get hit, I know he would get hit. He only meant that Jordan's coach would bench him long enough to have a talk with Michael to get him focused on winning the game, not being a hot dog.
Wilt will always be a favorite of mine because of this one anecdote: During the 1968-69 NBA season, Wilt was in town to play the Boston Celtics. He arrived a day ahead of the game, and walked over to a nearby cinema complex to catch a film. My older brother was there with a date, and she was the cutest, little woman.. standing just under 5 feet. She recognized Wilt right away (at over 7 feet, he was easy to spot), and said to him, "Mr. Chamberlain, you're so tall, I could walk in between your legs." To which Wilt replied, "I wish you would, little lady, I wish you would." True story.

This guy played 48.5 minutes once for a season that demanded Insane athleticism and stamina Wilt was unreal
This man was a whole myth, Bruh. If he was even real, then he was a walking anomaly. I don't think that a human this massive can be insanley athletic.
Keeping in mind that a basketball game ending in regulation is 48 minutes long, it's interesting how Wilt could average 48.5 minutes per game for a whole season. The fact is - and there's stats for this, so this Chamberlain story at least is not BS - Wilt was on the court for all but eight minutes that entire season, and the only reason he was out those eight minutes is because he got ejected one game. Aside from that, he played every minute of every game, never fouling out, never going to the bench for a breather. With ten overtime periods to add to the eighty games he played that season, the math comes out to 48.5 minutes per game. Since he also averaged better than 50 points per game that season - another record that will probably never get broken - it seems unlikely his ability to play entire games was facilitated by taking plays off. Seriously, his stamina was unreal.
@@zanti4132 he’s the GOAT in my humble opinion! Led the league in assists one year. Played point guard for the Harlem Globetrotters. His records are astounding!

@@blmalik17 Actually he was 60 and 5 months. Some of you can't do math.
Black people age very well
The thing to remember about Wilt’s era is there were no 3-pointers, the guards were much worse at outside shooting and shot selection, and there was no 3-second rule, so players on both teams tended not to create as much space on the floor in the half court. Anybody ran up and down the floor fast trying to get off shots before the defense got in there to clog all the lanes, and then everybody crashed the boards. This favored fast, leaping big men with a lot of cardio like Chamberlain and Bill Russell. The dominant player coming out of that era was a guy who could score reliably without getting in the mess under the basket - Kareem.
In Shaq’s day the rules were different and favored moving the ball around the outside and then going inside and outside with it. The dominant big men were mostly really big and strong and difficult to move, because you would mostly look for mismatches or one on one down low, maybe beating a double team - quick and explosive in the post, but not fast runners looking to leap over the whole other team to get rebounds. Yeah there’s Hakeem but he was one of a kind.
If Shaq had played in Wilt’s era he would have been great, but he would have been entirely different. For one he would have been like 100 lbs lighter and would have played around the elbow and the top of the key a lot more than made sense in his era.
One factor to add was in Wilt’s day nobody really knew how to rebound. Oh they bang around, but if you look at the old game footage from his prime era, nobody boxed out - Wilt would follow his own shot and just run circles around guys to grab rebounds because he was faster, taller and more athletic.
But Moses Malone revolutionized the rebounding game and every big man and power forward after him is different because of it (and of course Charles Barkley played with Moses early in his career). If Wilt played in Shaq’s era he would have needed to learn those techniques or he’d be constantly called for over the back fouls on shorter guys boxing him out. It would have reduced the advantage he had from his pure athleticism.
You couldn't play physical offensive basketball in the 60's. There's some video's floating around, but they show Wilt and Kareem getting called for offensive chargers for the barest of lowering their shoulders. If you pushed a defender off their spot, that was an offensive foul. So I'm not sure how Shaq thrives in that game. He didn't have a great outside shot, fade away, or hook, and wouldn't have been able to bulldoze his way to the rim. So I think Shaq would have looked like one of those other centers playing against Wilt at the time.
@@fenzelian Wilt would have played within the rules, so likely a less effective rebounder, but considering some of his other staggering stat lines, which was that he averaged near 45 minutes a game throughout his career, and never fouled out of a single professional game, I don't foresee him jumping over folk's back to get the rebound.
Shaq would have fouled out. He couldn't play the physical style he got away with back then. Even ticky tack offensive fouls were called back then. Also, Shaq did not have the stamina that Wilt and Russell had.

The 20,000 women bit was the least interesting thing in this interview
I MET WILT & WE SHOOK HANDS. Born in New Jersey in 1949, our family went to a whole number of Harlem Globetrotters' games as our main form of outside entertainment during the year that they had this great "point guard"; what was his name, oh yeah, Wilt. I "followed" Wilt into the NBA the following year and have been a "rabid" NBA/ABA/NBL fan ever since. I actually MET Wilt once - in the San Diego sports arena - he was seated in the stands in the aisle seat when I went by going up the steps. I recognized him; stopped walking and he smiled that dazzling (and sympathetic) smile of his; and extended his hand to me - we shook hands ... and ... and I couldn't get out a word.
I swore I'd never let that happen again; until just a few years later it did. I was running long distance (2.5 hours a day, year round) in San Diego's Balboa Park (the super-hilly sections); when I crossed paths with this giant of a man on a bicycle (which he absolutely dwarfed). I recognized him, it was Bill Walton - and once again I was speechless.
Back to Wilt. Almost noone alive today KNOWS this about Wilt: that he was the exact opposite of a selfish guy. We heard about it back then - it was regular news. Wilt (sometimes accompanied by a college teammate) would go to restaurants that were "whites only" and deliberately sit in the front. He HAD TO KNOW that he could be killed at any moment for doing so - but he (personally) ended up integrating first Kansas and then the whole region around it. Someone that SELF-LESS could not have, a short time later, transformed into a selfish player. Heck, we knew, back then, that he'd often back off from absolutely dominating an opponent - out of sympathy.
saw Wilt Play in Seattle in the early 60's he completely dominated. Chamberlain is on my all time starting 5. Best Center in the History of The NBA
Same here
no u didnt
“If Wilt Chamberlain is with ten girls on a train…” lmao great phrasing
This dude is the GOAT "on and off" the court..He can score whenever he wants to😂😂😂
FUN FACT: Wilt led the NBA in "off court" scoring every year of his career.
Wilt lived a life most people can’t even imagine no wonder they think he made it up... if his games weren’t taped and his scores written down by others people would think his career was a fake. He too real!!!!!
Wilt lied about a lot plus he was jealous of Jordan
He played against 8 teams learn basketball 😅.
It’s absurd and a lie. He didn’t sleep with a different woman everyday for 50 years. Be real
People from back in the day were so well spoken and articulate.
Great society role models, education system, reading books, good moral values, family structure, etc...
When he was joking about being 5'11... i felt that 😭
I mean...for an NBA player that's pretty short lol
He was probably sick of being asked that question.
The word problem for kids joke by Conan was spot-on 😂
The GOAT player and the GOAT host all in one video
In one sport perhaps
Nah, but both made my top 5.
Forsure
stop idolizing athletes
Wilt passing out holding his breath at 130mph would be an epic send off
Wilt was a freak of nature. One of the most athletic human beings there ever was!
yup and now we got giannis! 😂
On and off the court😎
@@papacinoooo he is not athletic
Wilt the exaggerator. R.I.P.
Exactly....what boat is doing over 80+ mph on the Sacramento River in the 1960's or 70's?
Exactly, I’m sure he’s had what felt like 20k women nuts that’s damn near impossible lol. He’d have to be having sex every free second of his life lol
@@Tyweezy84 Even if he exaggerating. Make no mistake. He was slaying women from left to right. 🤣🤣
Wether the 20.000 women number is real or not, it worked like a marketing campaign and it has become a landmark in popular culture (and it fitted perfectly with his self assured personality). So, the guys who published the book did a pretty job with Wilt's biography.
those 20000 collectively broke his heart...((
Conan’s basketball skills would be perfect for this era, he was ahead of his time!!
I gotta say I'm impressed with the quality of the questions Conan asked.
Wilt seemed like a really dope person to know and be around. RIP to a legend man.
DOPE? I didn't know anyone really said that! I thought it was a punchline!
That number really isn't far fetched for someone of Wilts stature who was a monumental figure in basketball and other things that he ventured in.
The women or the 100 points?
Nah dog that’s like 1.5 woman a day for 40 years
@@thorgod0824 lets not kid ourselves the man got buns
@@Stangleripkis I believe he did but those buns being 20,000 just doesn't sound realistic to me and it never did.If he said hundreds or even close to a thousand or somewhat over it I could've believed it.
But those kinds of numbers I don't believe.There's a lot about those tall tales of his that don't add up when you really analyze them and think about what he was saying.
I find it ironic that Wilt Chamberlain believes the 90s era of NBA was soft. Simultaneously, Shaquille O'Neal believes this current era of NBA is soft.😂
He would’ve legit had to sleep with somebody close to every day of his life
nice
@@jondoe2772 that’s how you get aids lmao
He probably made up for the off days with some 10-20 girls at one time nights.
yoυ тнιnĸ нe dιdn'т wнen нe dιd..??!!!
Or, he could have just made up a crazy number, and that seemed to work to create his image. :-)
