Wilt's actual number of triple-doubles had blocks counted during his career would most likely be between anywhere from 300 to 400.

When watching footage of 1972 Wilt when he was 35 you can just start to truly appreciate how utterly dominant he was as an all-round player.

In the playoffs that season he just went on a defensive rampage and locked down everybody en route to his second title.

He also famously held Kareem to 41.4% shooting in the last 4 games of the 1972 WCF including a scoreless fourth quarter in Game 3.

During the series, Kareem was noted for taking an unusual amount of jumpers due to just how dominant Wilt’s interior defence was.
