“He knew how to set up teammates for their best shot” great work
What a great picture at 20:00!
37 points, 27 rebounds, dam man? You have to say that man was a problem for all he played against.
Great video!! A lot of great context! I'm guessing you read The Rivalry? It tells the story of Chamberlain and Russell.
I have not, I’m going to have to check that out! I read “red and me” a book by bill Russell as well as “wilt: just like your average 7 foot black millionaire living next door” as well as a lot of research. Thanks for watching! -Drew
THE NBA 🏀 🐐 CONVERSATION BEGINS & ENDS WITH BILL RUSSELL#6(THE NBA 🏀 🏆 KING) .. WILT CHAMBERLAIN#13(THE NBA 🏀 RECORD 📖 KING) .. AND KAREEM ABDUL JABBAR#33(THE NBA 🏀 MVP KING) ..
Wilt only got along with 3 coaches Frank Mcguire who let him do whatever he wanted, Alex Hannum who challenged him to a fight, and Bill Sharman mostly b/c he was at the end of his career and hated Kareem, also Willis Reed was out in 72
nate thurmond billy cunningham and hal greer weren't as elite as don nelson tom heinsohn bill sharman kc jones sam jones john havlicek and bob cousy so 2 championships belong to wilt chamberlain and 11 championships belong to bill russell
@@youtuber3328 Don Nelson 🤣 clown
@@williepep-fy7qm please tell me why you said that
Willis reed&:ny knick never beat bill Russell &boston celtic in 1960s playoff series;; unlike wilt & Philadelphia 76ers 1967
It wasn't wilt fault Willis reed injuries stop Willis reed from in 1972 nba finals Willis reed got paid ; how come Willis reed & NY knick didn't beat Dave Cowen & boston celtics in 1974 playoffs ??? Willis reed was there was reed was only early 30s
I have Wilt as the goat individual player. Yes, he had an ego, but he liked to win, better than anything. I think his shortcoming was that he didn't have one of the best basketball minds and didn't learn the, team play is better concept, depending on the talents of your teammates, until later in his career. He was also coached to score all he could for the first 6 years of his career, which he did, better than anybody, ever. It just wasn't enough to beat the Celtics teams.
Certainly an argument to be made that his peak was better than anyone else’s but I would say those reasons you gave are reasons he isn’t. Others had the impressive resume as well as the drive to get better and play unselfish basketball
@@SuperbSportMedia Impressive resume, maybe, but nothing like Wilt's, at both ends of the court. I am talking career Points, and rebounds per game, not peak. He blocked more shots than anybody, including Russell, but we can't count that, because they weren't counted, officially. I watched them play, real time. Russell had a good outlet pass, and so did Wilt. Russell's teams may have won championships, but Wilt outplayed Russell, in all phases of the game, 90% of the time, and equaled him in assists. You may have been listening to interviews of Red, and other old Celtics. Look at the stats. Watch footage of old games, and highlights of both players.
Wilt lead the league on assists, duuuh he was good at finding the teammates good shots.
@@SuperbSportMediaWilt 2:53
Wilt was averaging 15- 20 blks a game
Boston at this greatest team wilt greatest ever individual player ever. Baylor was given a ring for lakesr championship after he retired in the season after a couple games
10:30 how you getting double and triple teamed and you finish LAST among the STARTERS on your team in assist?
Boston is an all star players
1960s Boston Celtics were a basketball hall of fame basketball team
Where see you a rivalry in 11 to 2 ?😅
Willis reed & NY knick never beat bill Russell and boston celtics 1960s
Willis reed &ny knicks never beat bill Russell &1960s boston celtics in playoffs series::laugh laugh
1960 wilt grabbed 3 more rebounds but played 16 more minutes, keep in mind russell has the all time highest rebound per minute rate ever
Check stat sheets on both. Per career, Russell played 42.3 min, Wilt played 46.3. For the playoffs, Russell played 45.4, Wilt played 45.8. I checked this about a year ago after Red said, in an interview, that Russell only played 36 minutes a game. I had watched a lot of their games on TV and didn't remember Russell sitting on the bench for anywhere near that long, in any game. Red was incorrect, according to several stat sheet posts of both players.
@@wmden1 cool Russell still has the highest rebound per minute rate all time
@@williepep-fy7qm Do you remember where you got this information and was that for careers, or a season, or two? I would like to see it, seriously.
These are called "plumbers "
Hall Of Famers* There’s a lot of them too 74 Total From 1957-1973
plumbers is called those role players. Top 20 supertars would be great in any era.But Reddick was talking about 4-5-6-7-8 best players in nba teams in 1960s they indeed looks like plumbers not real athletes compare to later nba standarts
No way
