Is Giannis Antentekoumpo as good as a Prime Wilt Chamberlain??

[Lebron23]

Giannis is currently putting up historical numbers in the regular season. He's having one of the best performances from a 6'11 and above player in the last 20 years.

wilt was getting 50 ppg in heavy traffic, while Giannis gets 30 with no help defender on half his drives (http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/showthread.php?479300-ESPN-Nearly-half-of-Giannis-drives-had-no-help-defender-due-to-spacing), per ESPN

Wilt was also a better jumpshooter

Giannis would lockdown Karl Malone, and good luck on Barkley guarding a legit 6'11".

indeed you let Wilt have no hand checking and use his strength in the post as he was not allowed to in the '60s with the rules favoured towards the defence and also let players not beat the crap out of him every game and and Wilt averages 60 points a game in the '60s. If he gets the royal treatment like Giannis who travels and commits an offensive foul every single possession and who in the '60s would foul out by half time.



If Wilt in the 60's got to play with today's rules good god he would have averaged 35 to 40 points a game for his career and would have shot a lot better then 54 percent for his career i am telling you that .And there is no way Russell could have stopped him with the rules favouring the offense and Wilt being allowed to do whatever he wanted to on offence like travel and use his sheer strength as Shaq did in the 2000's.

Giannis is guarding nobody's in the post let alone centers. He would play center in the 90s and 80s. He is very good but he has it easy today with the lack of big men with a post game.

Again we should remember that Wilt was getting mugged by 3 to 4 players every game and the refs would not call anything for Wilt as he was viewed as too dominant by them if Wilt got to play with the illegal defence rules as Jordan did he would have been even more unstoppable then he already was which is a scary thought.

Lol is this dude serious Wilt would eat him alive in any era who just plays like people think LeBron does which is not true as Lebron has far more skill than Giannis who just commits travels and offensive fouls with every possession. It makes me sick as that dude is so protected by the refs unlike Lebron and when it comes to clutch time he gets exposed for the lack of skills he has on offence like last year in the playoffs against the Raps.
