We never bring that up. When yall guys start loosing arguments yall try the art of distraction and go that route. Its a desperation move and you do it all the time. Count how many times you and your boys have brought it up. Its pathetic.

[QUOTE=Deuce Bigalow]If he was in the league in the 60s, people would say Wilt who?[/QUOTE]
It was the same way for him in the 2000's in his prime.

[QUOTE=-23-]Don't get me wrong, he's a phenomenal athlete. I can't stand retards who claim he can FT dunk from 3 steps. You'd think one person at the time would be like "hey, this guy did something [B]I've never seen before, I should take a picture". [/B]I take all these Wilt claims with a grain of salt.[/QUOTE]
:lol And that would work for you. You aren't the sharpest knife in the drawer are you.

It's because you guys keep bring up fairy tales
"he dunked from the freethrow line" and "he would block all of Bynum's attempts"
Mel Counts - 7'0", 230 lbs (career 6.0 RPG)
Swede Halbrook - 7'3" 235 lbs (played only 2 seasons)
that is the list, how am I "losing" anything?

Once again, the freethrow line reference is [B]Shown Here [/B]by one the most respected and successful guys in modern day basketball. A guy that was in basketball for 60years and will be in the HOF.
When I say loosing I mean people bringing up that its always about quality and never about height, weight or physical attributes. Its only about a combination of quality, skills and attitude.

Sorry size matters. It just does.
Doesn't matter how skilled a great defender is if he's 3-5" shorter and 20-50 lbs lighter it's hard to contest shots effectively
btw it's losing not loosing

look at Ben Wallace's body(no homo), that's one exception , oh and he's 240 lbs..probably even more than that
Bryan, will he ever learn?
Re: List of players over 7 foot, 230 pounds in Wilt's time
As why I never rate Wilt over Kobe, Shaq, KAJ, Magic or Bird....and obviously Jordan.

8 of the last 10 DPOY awards were under 6'11. 20 of the last 27 were 6'10 and under. The multiple winners were smaller centers DH, B Wallace, Alonzo, Hakeem, Rodman. With only Deek as the only multiple 7 footer winning - a 13 to 4 disparity in favor of the smaller centers. So you're loooosin mo' ground in your argument.
