[QUOTE=Deuce Bigalow]:oldlol: no he wouldn't, he'll be lucky to be as good as Bynum[/QUOTE]Wilt would destroy Bynum even without the benefits of modern training. You clearly have no idea what you're talking about or you're just saying idiotic things to get attention

That's because most people have never seen him play. They just see his awful FT% on Basketball Reference and make assumptions.

Tex Winters talks about Wilt in here.
He didnt fight a moutain lion in that story. He pulled off the road and went to toilet and one allegedly jumped on his back and he knocked it off and it ran away. No one believed him but he had big scratches across his back and that was his explanation. He might have been lying but that was the story.
[QUOTE=Pointguard]Why would you think Tex Winters would lie about it? He had great credibility and was on the committee to institute such rules and was just explaining himself. Wilt could triple jump 50 feet which would be beyond the half court line. And could broad jump 22 feet about the top of the key. These are far from world records but are very impressive for that time. Wilt had incredibly long legs and was freakisly strong with his whole body. No offense Bizzle, you just aren't educated in what you are talking about. And you sound arrogant in your ignorance.
Seriously, you think Deandre Jordan has Wilt's strength? You think Roy Hibbert could make any track and field team. I doubt he can broad jump 12 feet. Deandre Jordan gets tired after 30minutes. What athelete that you know of could run 50mile marathons? You think Arnold Schwanegger is going to call Deandre one of the strongest people he knew? You think somebody weighin 265 lbs giving their HOF speech is going to say his most amusing moment was when Deandre Jordan picked him up moved him like a coffee cup?
You act like the human species is different now. Grow up, pick up a book and start reading. They aren't. Today they don't eat organic foods and it messes with their endurance. Jack Johnson fought 42 round fights in the 1900's when they were practically fighting bare knuckled. No fighter now handles 12 rounds very well.
Guys don't hustle for rebounds and are scared to bang today. What 7 footer fights down low every night? Deandre Jordan? Even the fans never respected KG for playing hard, every game. Yall act like everybody is playing hard. When the 7 footers now are complete jokes. Almost all of them are unfocused and don't take pride in having a workman's approach to the game. DH does this but takes games off. But he stands out for being part time old school. Rodman could come in the game today and lead the league in rebounds and offensive rebounds because he plays with heart and isn't scared to bang. Deandre is four times the athlete Love is but he will never average what Love averages. Cause Love is old school, ask anybody.[/QUOTE]
You'd have to be a retard to think he can dunk from the FT-line with 3 steps. Like an actual ****ing retard. How ****ing stupid are you? :facepalm
He'd have to jump with a 50" vertical to gain the horizontal distance to cover that distance, from 3 steps. You're a ****ing moron, never post again.
[QUOTE=WillC]If you say so, troll.
Wilt was quicker, stronger, a better leaper. If he played today, it's fair to say he'd have an even bigger advantage in those areas due to today's training methods, nutrition, etc.
In terms of his skill set, Wilt has Bynum beat in every area except free throw shooting:
- Wilt was an infinitely better ball-handler and passer, which he honed in his time with the Globetrotters.
- Wilt had a legendary finger roll.
- Wilt had a very effective turn-around jump shot.
- Wilt was one of the best rebounders ever (if not [I]the [/I]best).
- Wilt was a ferocious shot-blocker.
Keep living in your dream world where everything gets better as the years go by. I wonder what you'll think of Jordan in 50 years' time? I assume every shooting guard in the league in 2062 will be better players than Jordan was :rolleyes:[/QUOTE]
Wilt dominated shorter, weaker players it's just fact dude
blocking and rebounding against 6'8"-6'10" 200-220 lb players means he would dominate the league today? :rolleyes:
stronger?

and look at the 6'4"-6'8" center next to him, that is what he dominated
[QUOTE=Deuce Bigalow]I'm not discrediting that Wilt for being tall
I'm just laying some facts that he played against small centers, much smaller
Imagine Andrew Bynum in that era, only 2-3 centers are 7' and none of them are close to 250 pounds :lol[/QUOTE]
Like imagining Shaq in the 2000's :lol

Hmmm, who are we going to believe? The guy who clearly took the time to explain his point intelligently, or the guy who can't get his point across without swearing and throwing an immature little tantrum?
Difficult decision...

The rules committe changed the rule of moving past FT line til ball hits rim because he was doing it.
Dont reply til you watch the video.

tired of all this Wilt bullshit
[QUOTE=bwink23]Your silly child.....[/QUOTE]
"your"....and I'm the silly child?
What does Wilt have over Bynum other than jumping and running?I've seen Wilt's highlights and there just jumping over and putting in shots over smaller weaker players

Watch what? Take a freshman physics course and come back to me. I've done enough physics in my engineering major to know that for a 250lb+ mass to generate the momentum, and height needed to dunk on a 10 foot rim on 3 steps is impossible. You're a idiot. Tall tales are exactly that, TALL TALES. You're a ****in moron, keep sucking Wilt's dick.

Yes, lets trust every quote regarding Wilt, especially his own.
Wilt said that he crushed a mountain lion, that he had a 50 inch vertical, that he slept with 20 000 ladies, that he'd score 70 points per game in the modern era etc..
And then we should also trust all the other people's quotes a la, Wilt broke a guys toe with a basketball (not even possible, learn some physics), Wilt could dunk from the FT-line with 3 small steps, Wilt was a world class volleyball player etc..
The quotes and the stupidity never ends..
