@@lancethedragonmaster8562 Absolutely. Bill’s the greatest winner in basketball history, not just NBA. There’s a fact I saw that ‘from his first year in college to his final year in the NBA he won a championship or final 14/16 years and MADE the championship or final 15/16 years’. Keep in mind those two losses that kept him 16/16 was an injury in the 1958 finals and losing to an equally stacked if not better 76ers team in 1967.
Danny, that thing you said about being short. Thank you man. I’m constantly picked on because I’m 5’5 as a Freshman.

In 1967-68 Wilt led the NBA in assists averaging 8.6 a game and having a career average of 4.4, which is very solid for a center. People see Wilt as just this dominant scorer, which they should but he honestly had 2 arcs of his career. The scoring dominant one and then the team player passing one.
@@ItBeJT the only time Will won championships and acted as a team player he had a great coach but before he would win he had coaches that would do nothing and teams where he had no help an did it himself
Giving wilt a D+ in Mid Range is criminal. 60% of his shots came from the mid-range through hooks, fades and jumpers. The rest were layups, finger rolls and of course, dunks. Not only that, we would lead the NBA in scoring and in FG%, and if not, he was very close to it.
He was also like 310 moving at Lebron speed. In my 2k I gave him MJ ft line dunk package, dribble moves like Giannis and even a 1 handed fadeaway 3 for modern times cause he would definitely learn to shoot 3s if he grew up this era. He was too strong to shoot normally and he refused to shoot fts like Rick Barry so everyone thinks he cant shoot but he was cash with those fadeaways and mastered the bank shot like Duncan. Shame they treated him like a monster if he came into the league at 18 like Kareem instead of 23 he might have gotten the chance to play with West and Baylor in their primes when those 2 were almost beating the Celtics too. All 3 in their prime they take half of Russell's rings, but then no MJ or anyone else comes close with his individual records. His politics and social ideals made it impossible for him to have a supreme sneaker wearing fanbase in an era where the league didnt get much exposure.
@@lotuslife3239 True to all that. Especially the West and Baylor stuff. Ironically enough, had he played with those amazing players (instead of going mostly on a lone run in his career), he would probably be higher in the people's rankings. But because he didn't, and had to (or at least thought he had to) get otherworldly statlines to keep up with the competition. Man I wish people would watch some footage and documentaries. Takes an hour, maybe 2 to get a solid grasp of Wilt. Take the grand stories with a grain of salt, but the recorded ones at face value. Could he pick up a quarter from the top of the backboard? Maybe, maybe not. Could he touch the top of the backboard? Almost definitely. Look up "Akobundu-Ehiogu backboard" just for fun. Did he win track and field? Yes. Did he win jumping contests? Yes. Did he get 50 points? He averaged it. For a whole season. 40 was a bad night for him. I know current NBA fans clown people who like Wilt's game. You're either a oldhead, or a kid who only looks at stats. Look at the goddamn footage for god's sake. He blocked Kareem twice. Not in his whole career. In one clip. Mind you, it wasn't in his prime, but at the twilight of his career. Kareem's lucky Wilt only had him for 4 years, and the league didn't record block and steals until literally the year Wilt retired. Wilt retired in the 1972-1973 season. NBA started recording defensive stats in the 1973-1974 season. Of course he couldn't have all the records. Had to keep some stats in reserve for when he retires. Case in point, he's 7'2 Giannis with a jumpshot and the stamina to average 47 minutes a game, despite the high pace (which people always state as the reason his stats are inflated, without even realizing the fact he averaged over 40+ minutes a game as impressive)

24:37 I don’t really know anything but on the bottom it says the team is losing $535,000,000. Could that be why they never pick up any free agents of consequence?
Wilt even in his era was labeled a notorious playoff choker unfairly, because he was against a super stacked Celtics team. Also, your growth is similar to mine I went from 5’6” on my 15th birthday to 5’11” on my 16th on my way to my final height of 6’4”.
@@danny2ksimulationsyea those Celtics were stacked AF. It’s interesting growing taller past classmates who used to be quite a bit taller than you isn’t it. Also, not surprised Wilt made All-NBA at 39, dude stayed in insane shape most of his life he was benching 465 at the age of 59, and the NBA was begging him to come back for a season in 1986 when he was 50! They weren’t doing that with Jordan and Karl Malone in 2013. Also the career parallels between Wilt and LeBron are insane when you track their journies from High School throughout their NBA careers, obviously you couldn’t draft someone straight out of HS in the 50s you had to wait for them to complete college at the time.
This is highly unrealistic. First of all, if you’re going to put wilt in the modern era then you’ll have to give him the same technological advantages as everyone else. That means he would be at least as skilled as wemby and I’d say, since he was ahead of his time back in the day with his fade away jumper and reverse finger roll and defensive prowess, he’d be even more skilled than wemby and he was incredibly strong. He would be just as dominant today as he was in the 60’s. There would be nobody strong enough to stop him!
Never was he an older rookie! 18 + 4 years of college = 22 .. that should be the norm Kids need to get their education & graduated.. playing professional for 15 to 20 years isn’t guaranteed but a quality education will always beat no education.
Nah. 3 point shooters are dime a dozen in the current nba, Wilt actually has the rarer skill set here. Just surround him with 4 shooters, he easily picks up any kind of defensive and rebounding slack. He’d be a stronger more mobile Gobert. Not sure what he’d be on offense though, offense from that era always looks whack. Wilt would for sure develop better skills if he grew up in the 2000’s/2010’s
He could shoot threes, look up story of Wilt shooting free throws from mid court at 80 percent make rate and also yt clip where he wins bet at laker practice to make think was four three points hooks in a row. Member was no three pointer in wilt time, also wilt being able to get away with travels and offensive fouls in this era would be wild.
I remember one time I had 2003 pistons but shitter and they was in the finals vs lakers and I simulated game 7 where the lakers got blown out 60 points
I swear I’m 5ft 3in at 12yrs old and like people 1 inch taller who are 13 and already have facial hair will be calling you short. My genetics make it like that where I will probably have a massive growth spurt 8-11th grade as well. Great video 🎉
