ISH: Where MJ and Shaq allegedly had a higher peak than Wilt Chamberlain

[QUOTE=Deuce Bigalow][B]Yeah, right. Check the vids, the tape[/B], pics, whatever you want, and you'll see that they are not near Wilt. Except Kareem whom Wilt did not play from 1959-1968, his prime and when he put up his numbers.[/QUOTE]
:roll:

I [I]own[/I] the vids and tape. I watch more "tape" of that era in a week than you've probably ever see in your life. There are players in Wilt's era who are huge, tall, long, and athletic that aren't named Wilt Chamberlain. Sry if it doesn't fit your agenda but it is what it is :confusedshrug:

4 inches shorter, 60 pounds lighter.

[QUOTE]It isn't what Wilt was doing, it was the defense. The defenses looks the same.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, because I'm going to analyze defenses in a highlight clip spanning 2 minutes and 12 seconds long ?

And your wrong. Watch the clips again. Mika is getting D'd up by some player I can't really say... and he's getting hook shots to go down with ease and the defender can't do really anything but stay in front.

Wilt is getting defended by Bill Russell in some of the clips (who exactly is Mikan's defensive rival ? Does it even matter when the other guy is considered the great defender of all-time ?)... Russell blocked one of the shots too... Russell is actually making Wilt work in some of those plays. Where do you see any blocked shots in Mikan's video or even making him work harder for a basket near the rim ?

"The defense looks the same". :rolleyes:

Don't see a difference

78 year old Bill Russell is still about Dwight Howard's height.

Did Bill look like this?: [IMG]http://www.wallpapersd.com/media/images/8a48b7d12e.jpg[/IMG]

Or have atleast a 3 foot vertical? [IMG]http://tnation.t-nation.com/forum_images/8/5/857142.1135103982406.198376242uw.jpg[/IMG]

I'm pretty sure Bill Russell had a higher vertical than Dwight. He was an Olympic caliber high jumper at the time.

How am I trolling? :oldlol:

I've used videos and pictures. I'm not making this shit up, you can use google or youtube.

No matter what way you try to slice it those guys peaks do not in any way shape or form touch Wilt's. Prime? Perhaps it's debatable due to rings if they are that important to you. But actual individual peak performance? GTFOH the guy owns the record book and nobody has ever even come close to rewriting it. Seriously some of these poll results are flat out embarrassing.[/QUOTE]
Do you not realize MOST of his blocks were ****ing GOALTENDS?

And just think, Ben Wallace measured over 2 inches shorter than Russell w/o shoes and weighed [I]over 100lbs less than Shaq[/I] - stop reaching Deuce, cherry picking pics isn't going to change the fact that Wilt's peak is the Everest of NBA peaks. Your going on ignore list if you keep sidebarring my thread. I don't feel like hearing your bullshit, once people go on my ignore list they never get removed.

You do realize High Jumping records from back then don't come close to what they are now?

Imagine Wilt Chamberlain with modern fitness training and steroid usage.
