:applause: Great - your not lumping his career stats - this is a step in the right direction, now, if you would please dig in and start researching newspaper recaps of each of the games / series he played in the playoffs in 1962 and see what the written consensus/summaries are of how he and his opposition performed. Be sure to cover all sides of the documented 'story', Boston/Philly - and Neutral prited reactions. Than you'll finally be ready to form as honest-as-possible conclusion of how he performed in the 1962 playoffs!

-Game 7
22 points
Wilt's playoff scoring average was 22.5 points and his PER 36 minute average in the playoffs was 17.2 points per game.
Overrated.

It's even more dynamic than this 3 lumping together:
1. Volume scorer but offense doesn't necessarily revolve around Wilt.
a. 1960
b. 1961
2. Volume scorer/playmaker in high post.
a. 1962 (RS to playoffs strategy change; cited in "The Rivalry")
b. 1964
c. 1965 (trade to Philly w/ Greer + Walker reduces scoring load)
d. 1966 (addition of Billy Cunningham reduces scoring load)
3. High post playmaker
a. 1967
b. 1968
4. Low post defensive Anchor/Opportunist scorer
a. 1969
b. 1970
c. 1971
5. Low post defensive anchor/Low volume scorer
a. 1972
b. 1973
^ 4 and 5 need work, but I can address every one of his post seasons from 1960 - 68 to give understanding of "why Wilt's PPG dropped," but only for people truly interested in knowing for purely intellectual reasons; no "stans" or "haters." You can shoot me a pm for more.

35 ppg is bad?
For being one of the greatest scorers known in NBA history why the hell did they ask him to pass more? If he was so good on scoring, why should he pass more? Unless of course his scoring isn't really working and he is just stat padding to the detriment of his team. :roll:
Jordan was asked to trust his team mates more yet his scoring only dipped a few points down. They told him, nobody won the title as the scoring champ and he went out to prove them wrong. Wilt? He listened to the coaches and won 2 rings lol. :confusedshrug:

This idiot.
Get Jordan's balls out of your mouth brah. Its off putting to the people that have to talk to you face to face.
easily the worst poster on the site tbh please stop making threads about a dead player
[QUOTE=Marchesk]Do you guys [B]have[/B] to bring Lebron into every single thread?[/QUOTE]
LeBron is a superior playoffs performer than Chokeberlain. Lebron's numbers are way better in the playoffs. And another Finals MVP and Regular Season MVP, and he already surpasses Wilt the stiff. They are both top 7-9 players of all time. I rank Duncan and Shaq over Wilt.
Lol @ Wilt in 7-9 range. Dude is top 5 without question.

4 MVP, 1 Finals MVP. and 2 championships. Good all around numbers by Wilt, but he was not even a top 3 scorer in the finals.
