Wilt Chamberlain - Passing Ability (After 50ppg Wilt Averaged 8.6 Assists)

- Опубліковано 28 вер 2024
- Wilt Chamberlain, the player who shattered scoring records, is also the only center in NBA history to lead the league in total assists, 1968. He was 3rd in 1967. He averaged a triple double in points, assists, and rebounds the entire 2nd half of the 1968 season and averaged a triple double in 2 Playoff series. Wilt is
the most prolific passing big man in NBA history. You decide how skillful he was.
"he'd be (insert comparison to backdoor finisher role) today" - send those people here to watch this video! Wilt could be the hub of an offense even if he wasn't the one doing all the scoring.
Absolutely!! He changed his game up to be more of a passer later in his career because he had great scorers around him that he didn't need to be the leading scorer
tell me my english not good i am russian why didnt exist wilt full matches from 70 s or 60 i know 63 nba finals full game but 73 nba finals game 5 not full and no regular season game
1973 nba finals available or only game 5 plrss tell me
bad thing cause big games for wilt didnt exist
@@аскармуравьев a lot of nba history was lost, the nba was stupid and thought it was ok to delete nba history and start with jordan in 1992, luckily fans and youtube kept the past alive, and 2k in a way legends on myteam give them their due, and some kids respect the ogs more if 2k give em nice ratings haha
Wilts passes were ahead of its time. For a big man he could pass better than most guards in his time. Very underated part of his game.
A perfect example of Wilt's greatness: they rewrote the rule book to stop him and they reconfigured the court itself to stop him.
Finally his passing highlights. Thanks
Wilt was incredible, I consider him all-around player 50ppg and 8.6 in assist leading the league. I think he would dominate the NBA today. 50, 60 points easily
Guarding him is like trying to fight a moose with your bare hands
Dunk Man I would say it's like trying to fight a moose in a wheelchair wearing oven mitts and a blind fold.
I love this channel! Wilt is the GOAT!
Imagine him in NBA today ! Fantastic vidéo,thanks you...
Is there literally nothing he can't do? A god.
Thanks for the reminder :)
Amazing player. Thanks for the upload
Thank you so much
The blueprint of a dominant Big man in hoops, just like Ruth was the blueprint of power hitters in baseball. Two examples of men who were larger than life almost hard to believe they were real.
most people don't relaize babe ruth was actaully initially a super duper great pitcher before he went to the yankees
His most impressive feat in his career will always be him winning the assist title as a center
Never fouling out of a game with the physicality at the time.
Wilt kobe mj
6:21 NICE
Wilt had such an awesome and interesting career that, besides being cheated out of his chance to compete in the 1960 olympics, we all got cheated out of seeing him be Goliath in a fight against Muhammad Ali when negotiations failed to make that mega fight happen. I believe Wilt would have given Ali a better fight than George Foreman did because he was bigger, stronger and in better shape than Foreman and had a much longer reach than anybody who ever stepped in the ring.
Vince Carthane How did he get cheated out of the 1960 Olympics? He was a professional then and only amateurs were allowed to play in the Olympics. Did Elgin Baylor get cheated out of those Olympics too?
Mark Eaton is 9:27 is an awesome touch as well haha.
wilt chamberlain is the most dominant player in the NBA history
Can you imagine if #WiltChamberlain decided to be a quarterback! 👀
Or an MLB pitcher
What is the opening music？
Wilt was a great all around center. A much better passer than Bill Russell. The only weakness he had was he couldn't shoot free throws.
My all time team would be
1.John Stockton / Magic Johnson
2. Michael Jordan / Kobe Bryant
3. Larry Bird / LeBron James / Scottie Pippen
4. Tim Duncan / Hakim O.
5. Wilt Chamberlain / Kareem
And it's WILTS TEAM. It'll run through Wilt.
1:02 thats what happens when you play with the globetrotters
Wilt chamberlain the lebron James of the 60s.
I hate how people still crap ln the players of yester-year. And personally, i say these players were better. I may be bias considering Oscar Robertson is my all time favorite player. But i just feel the game has made it easier to score, draw fouls and to dribble... But i have a question for everybody...
How do you compare the players of today and the legends of the past?
Im 28 so I'm speaking as a millenial. I feel like the biggest difference is athleticism. Wilt was more athletic than 99 percent of todays players of course, but he was an anomaly. However I will say that past players were MUCH more fundamentally sound than today's players. Back then they valued having sound fundamentals.
Oscar’s amazing man, as good as there ever was
Imagine if he was a boxer it would of been a crime to let him step in the ring he would have retired 250-0 and then would probably make a comback ang go another 50-0😂
Huh? Boxing takes skill. Its not all about brute strength. Just because Wilt is big and strong doesn't mean he could box well or take a punch.
#WiltChamberlain is the greatest basketball player of all time. Anyone who says Michael Jordan is a damn fool!!’
Kobe bryant score 50s plus on machiel jordan once ; machiel jordan used tell scotty pippen to guard kobe bryant ❤ machiel jordan
For him to be so dominant he only has 2 rings that’s crazy
BILL RUSSELL! He had better team mates. Wilt kicked his butt but he could only do so much lol
does anyone know who the player guarding Wilt at 8:49 is?
Toby Kimball, a forward on the Rockets
@@WiltChamberlainArchive Thank you!
@@WiltChamberlainArchive I recreated wilt face from 1962 from scratch on 2k and I need your honest opinion on the accuracy. How would you like for me to send the screenshot?
Jokic who
wilt recorded 9 consecutive triple doubles in a row and the only double tripledouble 22 points 25 boards 21 assists
Take that russell stat padder😂
wanna ch.illmatic
Westbrook did in 2019-2020
аскар муравьев 👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀
To be fair, he probably got a triple double every game if they counted blocks back then as well. There was 1 game where they decided to see how many times he blocked shots and stole the ball, and if those were put into record books, he would have had a quintuple double. It's a real shame they didn't record blocks and steals back then.
@@PeanutSpring3 yeah and it’s a bit coincidental on how the NBA only recorded blocks and steals AFTER Wilt retired which would indicate the NBA was trying to contain Wilt from filling any more of the record books and be more mythical.
Wilt didn’t even have to pass. He just reached his arm across the paint and handed the ball to his teammates.
One of the best ever at hand offs
😂
No one will ever be like Wilt, and I mean it. He should have lived longer... RIP the greatest person ever
❤ wilt too
Greatest genetic specimen in human history, and he just so happened to play basketball
So true, he was a mutant
Seth Kasso I wish he played in this era so that I could watch him play 😞
@@bballgriotd-e-e-e-troitbba604 who cares about the science of the game or the biology of the athletes! They're amazing and that's all that matters. And bro, we mean this as in compliments towards wilt. People call the Greek Freak a monster as a compliment, he doesn't seem to mind
@@bballgriotd-e-e-e-troitbba604 okay sorry for triggering you and your biological philosophies, I never meant to say wilt was an accident. You seem too pessimistic about things, try and look at the positive side of everything. Just see what these guys are tryna say about how amazing wilt was, and I do agree he had a great work ethic and character
@@bballgriotd-e-e-e-troitbba604 okay I think you're going too in depth about what people are saying about wilt. You're thinking *too* outside the box. You just don't seem to understand what we are saying about wilt. We are saying that wilt was amazing. We know athletes for being athletes, not for being a very interesting character, but that does not mean they aren't interesting. Nobody said anything about wilt's character, that doesn't mean he had no character and was just an athlete and nothing else. We people see what we see, hear what we hear, and perceive what we perceive. Like, most people, basketball and non-basketball fans, know him as being the best player of today, that doesn' t mean he has no character, he probably has a great character! We just see what we see(Lebron on the court) , hear what we hear(non-basketball fans), and perceive what we perceive(lebrons fans and haters). We can at least agree that Wilt was an amazing athlete, person, whatever, right? He was amazing...
I wonder how many block shots Wilt averaged and total blocks damn he might've blocked 10,000 shots
Based upon my research, I think you're probably correct bruh.
Matter of fact, I'm convinced it was over 10,000; maybe even close to 12,000 if you count playoff games.
I read in an early Becket Basketball Edition back in early '90s(wish I hadn't thrown it out, just wasn't thinking like I should've then)where Auerbach thought Bill Russell blocked over 10,000 himself(I believe that would include playoff games, but even then, I'm pretty certain it was over 9,000 for RS competition). Perhaps someone can dig that up before I'm able to.
Russell would still have like 3000 more
Imagine this guy in NBA fantasy
He was Jokic before Jokic. Wilt was the Jimi Hendrix of basketball and comparing him with DeAndre Jordan is like comparing The Beatles with Maroon 5.
Wilt would dominate in today's game !
His agility and speed, running the floor will never be seen again.Compare Yao Ming who measured (In sneakers) 1 inch taller than Wilt in sneakers.Could these two even be compared? Wilt would dominate every part of the game. 7'2 and taller players are clumsy and jump 3 inches off the ground..He could dunk from behind the backboard as a freshman. Dwight Howard is the only player I've seen do that in an actual game.Wilt did it almost every game.Players have to be 6'10-7'0 with minimum 7"7 wingspan and some hops to do it.
Brian Chilman
No
Today’s game is predicated for Shooting Guards & Point Guards who shoot the ball
Not Centers
Tony Nah Wilt will adapt to today's game
@@vinrusso821 wilt was 7'2-7'3 in shoes 7 1.5 without. ming was 7'6
@@dumisatonyjohnson8145 wilt was good at shooting the ball though. and a HOF stated he watched wilt make 20/25 baskets from half court. there is a video of him winning a 5 dollar bet makint 4 3's in a row from the corner. any other silly arguments/
Wilt is the GOAT and it's not even close. All you kids out there, just look in the NBA record book, or I should say "Wilts" book, the man STILL owns over 60 NBA records and he's not been on the court for over 40 years. And... blocks were not kept or he'd own that record too. Just a phenomenal athlete and the best player to ever play professional basketball.
My guy Wilt had a 48 inch vertical, was strong (ex: Arnold talking about him lifting), smart, talented, he averaged 30 for his career which included when he was barely shooting his last couple of seasons with the lakers, a specimen and likely the best pure basketball player of all time
I'm not claiming to know exactly what his vertical was, but if it was 48 inches head head would be a foot about the rim. His standing reach was 9'8" I think. So that puts his max reach at 13'8"... he claimed to be able to touch the top of the back board. I honestly think realistically we are talking around 40.
his official was 48 dude
No chance in hell his vertical was anywhere near 48". Not even 40". There is no footage or photography out there definitively showing Wilt's head at rim level, which would require only a 34" vertical. You guys seriously think he could get his head 14" above the rim? Do you think of these things before posting such nonsense?
brum23
You haven’t watched the film if you haven’t seen Wilt at the rims head level
@@brum23 he's vertical is at least 40 you dumbass
@5:42 Wilt throwing the basketball like a football the length of the court so accurately, Phenom.
Shaq fans be like nooooo.
1:02 wow...
Someone needs to show this to today’s youth. This is timeless.
The most dominating player the NBA has ever had.
Um Shaq
Warrior wilt dominated way more than shaq. More points, rebounds, blocks, assists.
Warrior wilt dominated way more than shaq.
Shaq is the most dominant. Wilt has the best numbers, though
@stoic romulan Shaq was seen as dominant while playing within a system. Wilt was seen as dominant for going out of his way to set records. I put more weight on Shaq's dominance for that reason. Shaq and Wilt were incredibly efficient. Shaq used his efficiency as a weapon for his team.
Greatest all-around center in the history of basketball!!!
Hakeem?
ELT ISO X GG I like Hakeem too but he isnt on Chamberlain level when it comes to scoring, rebounding or passing!!!
@@mikegillins4992 how is Hakeem lesser than Wilt scoring wise when he flat out stunk at the line? Averaged fewer ppg and lower fg % in the playoffs than Olajuwon
FuShengAlex thou not a good free throw shooter wilt was a much more dominant scorer in terms of points...imagine his many points wilt would of scored if he was a better FT shooter
@@mikegillins4992 yes.....in the regular season. Playoffs however is a different story......
wow that's almost as good as magic's passing.
I saw him play several times LIVE with the 'Trotters - as their "point guard" - there was nothing he couldn't do. If only he had played a couple of more years (or been allowed to play in the NBA that year he played with the Globetrotters. Then I'd have to have him as the GOAT. As it is, I have him as the GOAT #2 Center (behind KAJ).
David Jared Wilt make Shaq look absolutely silly.
Goat
He was the most complete center of all time
HOW ABOUT 8 BLOCKS A GAME TOO
wilt 968 regular season double doubles the all time record he would led in triple doubles if blocks recorded not oscar
fun fact guys the boston Celtics won 11 championships throughout Bill Russells career. And they didn't sellout a single game. That's odd but the teams wilt chamberlain were on was selling out games. I'm starting to think Wilt Chamberlain was the main reason the NBA grew and they added more teams. And when he retired the attendance for the NBA dropped until Bird and Magic came to the league and which it went back up. Then Michael Jordan and other legends came in the league and now the NBA is the number 2 sport in America. Wilt Chamberlain, Michael Jordan, Bird, and Magic are the main reason for the popularity of the NBA. Bill Russell just won some championships and that's it. And of course they were gonna win because they had 8 hall of famers on there team. I hope the warriors win 12 championships.
I think free agency will fuck over the Warriors unfortunately. You know how the league is today....
Wow the more I see Wilt the more amazing and unreal it gets.
Wilt thA Stilt will always be 1 !!!! And he was a Globetrotter!!!
He set scoring records without the benefit of a three point line. Could he have shot the three? No doubt. There's a video of him making five or six shots in a row from the sideline. But it made no sense, when there was no incentive to take the long shot when his inside game and midrange shot were already devastating. The best ever! He could do anything you want to name better than anyone else.
Howard King, 4 three point range hook shots and winning a $5 bet in the 4th shot!
One of the worst free throw shooters of all time would have been a great three point shooter? Riiiiiight. He would be just as good a three point shooter as Dwight Howard, DeAndre Jordan and Andre Drummond.
@@brum23 bruce bowen was a 40% three point shooter and shot 57% at the line and there is footage of wilt swishing shots fron 3 point range so honestly him shooting better at three than the line makes sense
He bet his team mates he could shoot hook shots from deepen the corner, he hit six in a row, the guys dropped their heads, he befuddled the guys that were betting.
@clu4u I saw that video, he actually hit six, he stop shooting only because they weren't able to pay. Phenom in the true sense of the word.
i think wilt have more than 400 triple doubles point rebound block and a lot of quadruple double in 67 playoffs he recorded playoff quadruple double///and in 73 playoffs in game versus bulls in first round wilt recorded 11 points 30 boards and 12 blocks
If you are still alive, I want to request for you to post about the 1971 Eastern Conference Finals and the battle between Wes Unseld and Willis Reed. Reed averaged 12.4 PPG on 38.8 FG% for that series so I was curious to see how great of a defender was in that series and why we consider him an elite defender
Greatest athlete of all time
Seems like Gail Goodrich was the most recipient of Wilt's passes.
here form players choice he’s a solid passer
Whoa! There were some sweet dimes there!
He almost averaged a tripe please double
5:50 my GAWD
7:35 OH SHIT
4:36
... and now that I've finally gotten around to seeing this: who's the better passer -- Wilt or Nikola Jokic?
I would like to play one pick up game and have Wilt's twenty five year old abilities transferred to me. Just one game. Even the height.
I'm glad you are uploading videos more consistently than the past few months. I was beginning to wonder if you decided to call it quits lol Thank god you're still here with more great footage 🤘
Great Video, Thank You...
Plz make more videos on Maurice stokes
He was good at anything he tried to be good at
What's the name of the commentator of those black and white games against Boston? I'm assuming it's not Johnny Most before he started smoking.
Johnny Most always sounded like Johnny Most (ever hear "Havlicek stole the ball!"? Same era) - that other guy is someone different though I'm sure an old school Boston fan may know if they see your comment
Im still trying to figure out why you blocked me on twitter...handle @payamdj
I don't recall ever blocking anyone on twitter - apologies
First
This is what makes me upset about Wilt. This is the Wilt Chamberlain everyone wanted to see. In the 1966-67 season and the 1967-68 season, Wilt was putting up incredible numbers and his winning record was going up dramatically. This is the Wilt everyone wanted to see. If he played like this throughout his entire career, there would be no question who the GOAT was.
@Jesus Shuttlesworth >Skills are subjective. In no way do I see him to be the most skilled.
>Skills only matter when they are used effectively. Tracy Mcgrady is very skilled. That didn't lead to career accomplishments.
@Jesus Shuttlesworth>The word overrated is overrated at this point. Just because you don't like something, doesn't mean it's overrated.
>People should definitely be judged by their impact on the team and their team success. If you want to be judged as an individual, play street ball. This is a team sport in a team organization. Of course you should be judged.
@Jesus Shuttlesworth Even when Wilt's team improved, Wilt still lost. So that makes the case for Jordan-instead of Wilt.
@Jesus Shuttlesworth This is a weak argument.
>Those extra teams popped up like once a year. So at best, that's 1 extra win.
>Statistically, Jordan had the hardest road to the playoffs. If you go by the collective playoff win percentage. The highest winning teams were in the 90s more than any other decade.
>Jordan's finals competition were always in the 60s and high 50s when it came down to regular season wins.
>Jordan's competition was full of players on the US Dream Team that dominated everyone in the Olympics.
So this is just a silly myth. Jordan had incredible competition. And he destroyed everyone
@Jesus Shuttlesworth >Jordan isn't 1-9 in the first round. Get your facts straight.
>You claiming that Stockton isn't a super star doesn't mean Stockton isn't a superstar.
>You clearly know nothing about Jordan's competition to even imply that only one superstar is on his opponent's teams. So that already proves your limited knowledge on basketball.
Considering you don't even have your basic facts straight, you shouldn't be having conversations about basketball.
Un saludo desde Barcelona. Sabonis... Sería un gran exponente de él. Un gran base desde el poste bajo.
LeBron passed him for 5th
Just a bench warmer
The bench stays warm because his substitute never needs to enter the game
@@WiltChamberlainArchive yeah men, but it was sarcasm anyway
@@aguaneloyo5066 lol sorry I figured it was just the first reaction that came to mind
At least try being a little more obvious about the sarcasm lol
@@averagefella yeah you right, sorry my bad
He probably would be the best big man today. Not as good as Shaq however and certainly not the best player. You can plainly see in these clips how much bigger he is than everybody!! He today would still be the biggest, but now EVERY BODY has 2 to 5 seven footers to throw at him!! The center that he dropped 100 on was only 6'8!! imagine what Shaq or Robinson or any all star big man of today would do against a 6'8 defender?!?!
One of the dumbest things I have ever read. You'd be lucky if half of the teams In the league had 2 seven footers much less 5 😂
I'm obviously exaggerating a bit, but go to the 1962 rosters, the heights and weights on average are nowhere what they are today. Not to mention the skill level and training of today's players. I actually think he would be a better player today with all the advantages that today's players have, but he would only be a top 5 player in today's game and most likely would not quite average 30 a game, not this mythical ridiculous 50!!!! You guys are crazy to think otherwise!
@@daryltoonk2729 ua-cam.com/video/Wm1-jzpr_hU/v-deo.html I made a video addressing Wilt's competition - they were not undersized - also the heights of his opposition was the same as today. Weights on average were off by maybe 10-15lbs due to weight lifting. That's it. Appropriately big guys were matched up to him in his era that were as big as guys today.
Imhoff was got 100 points dropped on him and he was the same height as Hakeem Olajuwon. Imhoff also played against Jabbar. Jabbar's personal best on Imhoff was 48. Another fun fact is that 48 is the exact same personal best that Jabbar did against Olajuwon.
@@daryltoonk2729 The year Wilt averaged 50ppg, his team lead the league in points per game averaging 125. This year, Giannis is averaging 27ppg on the team that leads the league in points per game at 121. Wilt was just something the league has never seen before or since, and perhaps will never see again.
