    although i enjoyed that video i ain't shocked i'm the first after the original post. the trolls run this forum, phagotts that say the are watching the nba for 26 years but compare adam morrison to larry bird , they beat quality posters who enjoy basketball.

    i 'm sure i'm not the only one that thinks this way.

    that pass at 1:00 was beautiful, and the defense couldnt even get close to blocking his turnaround.

    a couple of those finishes were more acrobatic, than i thought walton was capable of, specifically off of that alley-oop that is thrown way too low

    good find

    As an alumnus of the school that Walton abused in this video I do not approve of this thread.

    Bill was just great, shame for injuries, would've been most likely a top 5 center.

    Bill Walton was always one of my favorite players. Most people only remember him for his 86 celtic days. He was a much quicker and more agile player before injuries took that away from him.
    Could have been in the Goat discussion.

    Yes, and he is one of the GOAT players in NCCA tournament. According to old newspapers articles they use to compare him with Lew Alcindor/Jabbar at that time a lot, because Walton succeeded Alcindor in UCLA. Although Lew was considered better player as an individual the press had rated highly Bill's team play. Sadly Walton never realized his full potential in the NBA due to above mentioned multiple injuries. His peak years as professional were between 1976 and 1978 during his Blazers days.

    If Walton wasn't injured, he'll end up top 3 GOAT centers. Too bad. Helluva player and the greatest passing center ever.

    Ahead Kareem, Russell, or Wilt? I don't think any of them. I do think the would be 4th, and it would be a big 4 rather than a separation between 3 and Walton, tho.

    Ahead of Wilt. Not the other two.
