Wilt dominated because he was tall.
So was Big Bob.
Put 2 and 2 together, people.
Wilt would no longer be called the most dominant regular season big man of the pre-3 point line era.

Classic example of Wilt's ego. Dude was a headcase. But then again so was MJ. Originally Posted by LAZERUSS

OT: Imho Wilt has nothing on Shaq physically.
But, did Wilt start to roid late in his career/soon after? Anyone? He looks more muscular in the 80ies than when he played, wtf?
(Ofc Diesel also roided btw)

Don't knock someones logic when you're saying someone that was brittle as **** and that died before the age of 23 could hold his own against a world class athlete who wasn't far off from being as strong as the raw power lifters of his day Originally Posted by swagga

I'm sure the guy who needs a cane could stand his ground against that.
We'll never see someone that big healthy unless he's a genetically engineered freak beast

Couldn't even stand and walk. Also, look at how much he weighed... Originally Posted by Deuce Bigalow

This from 1968...and BTW, the kid grew to 7-4. Surely he dominated the NBA, right? Oh wait...he never even made it in the NBA.

Wadlow was the man.
I'd say 60, 29 boards, and 18 blocks a game.
