    Lonnie entering the draft

    You think 3 inches is going to make that kind of difference? The only people who think Wilt couldn't play in the NBA today is people too young to have a **** clue what the man could do. 7'2" Wilt would dominate the crappy centers of today. Name one big man in the NBA today that could run as...

    You are simply wrong. There were not a lot of 6’5” centres back then. There were also no high schoolers playing, nor were there any players under 6’.

    Lonnie entering the draft

    It's just that defenders were allowed to play rougher in the 60s, while offensive players wouldn't have gotten away with what Shaq got away with. I think Wilt would be dominant now as well because of this. He'd face some taller players, but the league hasn't been a short, unathletic league...

    Nah, it's not true. Dude wanted to win badly. That's why he lead the league in assists the year the Lakers won it. He did what he had to do to win, he just didn't always have the talent around him to do it. Also, they didn't keep stats for blocks back in the day, but Wilt would have the...

    Shaq would have gotten killed by Wilt. Man, you people have listened to the BS narrative too long that Wilt was just taller than everyone else. Tell me, why didn't Manute Bol or any of the other 7'7" guys dominate? ****, they were taller than everyone else. Wilt went against plenty 7...

    I saw him block three Kareem sky hooks, and that was at the tail end of his career, and Kareem was young and in his prime. So yeah. And no, he was not going against a bunch of unathletic 6'5" guys. You're believing the lies the modern BB fans like to spread about basketball back then. The...

    You do realize Wilt set the rebound record against Russell, right? 55 in one game. Russell had better teams, without question. Also, Wilt never fouled out of a game in his career. He was also one of the strongest men to ever play the game. He would dominate against these scrubs.
