Not a chance in hell.

He would have a better chance against a prime Shaq.

:roll:

Draymond is SO ****ing overrated, it's hilarious.

Just stop.

[Droid101]

Well Draymond is probably what, seven or eight inches taller than anyone Wilt ever played against. He'd most definitely give him fits on both ends of the floor.

I dunno man, I think he might actually do okay

As long as he didn't challenge Chamberlain, he might hold the guy in that picture to around 24-24-8........

[Deuce Bigalow]

Is it the playoffs or regular season?

On 70% shooting.

Of course, even that Wilt would occasionally hang a 50-60+ point game, as well.

Can Wilt guard Draymond Green doe? Green would make him Harrison Barnes all day.

See the '72 Finals....when a 35 year old Chamberlain defended Jerry Lucas, who was the Kevin Love of his era. After Lucas shot 9-11 from the field in the 1st half of game one, Wilt not only went out on him, and defended "the Lucas Layup", he also was able to get back and still get 7.4 bpg in that series. Lucas was basically shut down the rest of that series.

Draymond Green would have made wilt quit NBA and play volleyball

Draymond is strong enough and pesky enough to possibly give Wilt problems for like two possessions. After that, he would wear down and Wilt would be more comfortable and likely dominate him.

This is kind of the same thing that happened with Shaq and Rodman. Rodman was strong enough and had enough tenacity to slow Shaq down for a while, but eventually he would wear down and the Bulls were forced to put Longley or Wennington on him.

yeah. The normal season averages, and the occasional rampaging-Cossack level of destruction of green to make sure he understood he was a mere NBA level player.

Kind of interesting to think about, in a droll sort of way, but about the only team green had a shot of a starting spot would probably be on the Pistons in those days.

Wilt was more of a finesse scorer to be honest.

He would destroy Draymond Green.

[Ca$H]

No but he will shut down Bran in the Finals.

[Jameerthefear]

Definitely.

[greatest-ever]

Hell no. Green is like 6'8, Wilt was a strong 7'1 athletic beast. He would destroy Green.

[HylianNightmare]

Wilt would dominate all but the best big men in the league today

[warriorfan]

I was 99% this was a joke or troll thread. If you guys are serious then that is pretty sad.


There is such a discrepancy between Draymond Green's standing reach and Wilt's standing reach. Draymond literally cannot even contest Wilt's go to moves. He would be helpless.

[imnew09]

thats like asking JJ Barea to defend Lebron....





oh wait :roll: :roll:

[ILLsmak]

Being real here, the first thing I thought of was the 3 pointer. I imagine Wilt's game would have benefited immensely from the 3 pointer.
