Busy at work today but I'll watch when I get home.
Re: The Wilt Chamberlain Offensive Scouting Report Project Thread:
Watched up to 19:50 during my break, I'll try to catch the rest later. Good shit. Watching the video gives you an idea of how Wilt looked to score, and what his different moves/shots were.

Re: The Wilt Chamberlain Offensive Scouting Report Project Thread:
Excellent!
And, as a sidenote, the background commentaries are as brilliant as the footage.
I would still suggest adding Wilt's college scoring footage, at least his 10-15 ft shots, to this mix. Why? Because, there is just only a tiny fraction of Chamberlain's early NBA footage available, and I am convinced that his 60-63 NBA offense was much more similar to his college offense. And again, we have respected opinions claiming that Wilt came into the league with a very good outside game (which would somewhat explain his lower overall efficiency, and also his ability to score more.)
I realize that there is a TON of work that goes into these productions, but perhaps at some point, you can give us around a 30 minute mix of his all-around dominance, including college footage (with his shooting, shot-blocking, and running the floor.) And again, if you could add in those sensational commentaries, I suspect that it would be yet another mix that might go viral.

OT - Were you able to find much color footage of Oscar from his Cinci days for your mix? Though I guess it's not a huge deal since he was perhaps still in his prime when he first went to Milwaukee (albeit the tail end, someone can correct me if I'm wrong), since from my understanding he didn't have a devastating injury.

I don't think it matters whether or not it's early or later career footage of him when it comes to assessing his game, like Wilt he's going to use the same moves and think the same way regardless of how old he is, that said, I have plenty of both

Adding all the High School, NCAA, and Globetrotter baskets to a 2nd version of this video that will encompasses all his known field goals on film.

Excellent. His college footage was certainly more representative of his early NBA career. As I have said several times, those that actually saw Chamberlain in the early 60's, have claimed that he had a good outside game.
[QUOTE] Carl Braun said, "He [Wilt] disorganizes you under the basket the same way [as Bill Russell, on defense]. With Wilt, of course, there's that offense on top of it, which is better than Russell's. He hit on all those jumpers."
"[B]Yes, Wilt hit on those jumpers...Wilt did come into the league with a good touch from the outside, which made his early scoring that much more significant.[/B] He wasn't just dunking the ball then."
