    No.  When he started to do less he finally won a championship.

    Jordan, Johnson and Lebron.

    Yeah, but cutz was probably referring to scoring with the ladies, right cutz? ;) No one beats Wilt there, not even Gene Simmons.

    I don't know as i'm not old enough to have seen Wilt. But, i know some scouts, one who played HS ball against Wilt, that are over 70 and have seen a lot of basketball and to a man they say Wilt was the best. He was not only 7' 1" but he was athletic too. Way ahead of his time. One told me that Wilt only holds so many  NBA records. Some that will never be broken.

    Not denying that he wasn't good because he was but you have to remember that he struggled against Russell and Jabbar.

    Also a good note is that the year Chamberlin averaged 50 pts a game Bill Russel won the MVP.  It's a fun debate to have because either side won't be wrong!!!

    Yes, it is a fund debate, like you said, either side is not wrong.

    Check this out, though:

    Regular Season 

    Player                  G W L GS MP FG FGA                          FG%   TRB               PTS
    Bill Russell           94 57 37 5.9 2.4 4.5                              .542        22.9            14.2
    Wilt Chamberlain 94 37 57 12.0 5.9 12.0                         .493          28.2            29.9

    Russell had more wins VS. Chamberlain, but i think we can agree, the Celtics had the better team most of those years? Averaging almost 30 pt.s and 28 Reb.s VS Russell is struggling?  

    Check out this website:   https://www.basketball-reference.com/play-index/tiny.fcgi?id=PAGXr       that has the game-by-game breakdown of Wilt VS Russell. Some comical stats put up by both of those players. I laugh when i look at them. Check out the 1960 game 20, when Wilt had 53 & 29 and Russell had  22 & 32. CRAZY!! Also, take note how many minutes they played. They basically play the WHOLE game. Again: CRAZY!
