Where would _ilts post game rank in the 90s or 00s?

6'9'' 235 lbs Willis Reed had Wilt Chamberlain shook.

Almost as bad as the 6-7 Ben Wallace wiping the floor with a near-peak Shaq in the '04 Finals, right?

[Uncle Drew]

Reed never came close to beating Wilt.

1970 and 1973 disagree.

22/13 on 60% isn't that bad. That'd be 66/39 in Wilt's era, tbh.

Near peak he said. Shaq peaked in 2000, that's four years off. Your Alzheimer's is getting to you.

Shaq was near his peak in '04. Wilt was in mid-30's in '70, and coming off of a major knee injury.

BTW, Shaq was badly outrebounded by the 6-7 Wallace in the '04 Finals, and was crushed by the 6-8 Rodman in the '96 EDF's.

[Uncle Drew]

Shaq was near his peak in '04.

Peak: 2000
Finals: 2004

He was near his peak guys!!!

Uncle Drew wiping his ass with Laz here like Willis Reed did Ilt in the early 70's.

[LAZERUSS]

BTW, a prime Chamberlain had a season, covering 12 H2H games, in which he outscored Reed by a 39 ppg to 22 ppg margin...all while slaughtering him in rebounding, and FG%. Included were beatdowns by margins of 46-25, 41-9, 52-23, and 58-28.

And in their two '69 season H2H's, Wilt outscored Reed by a 28.0 ppg to 20.0 ppg margin, outrebounded him by a 22.0 rpg to 9.5 rpg margin...and outshot him from the floor by a .688 to .459 margin.

My paint skills are the absolute best. They call me the Wilt van Gogh.

[sd3035]

He'd be a less athletic Javale McGee

[LAZERUSS]

Of course, the Lakers made a run without Wilt. Great coaching I'd say.

Actually...NO.

When Wilt came out the Lakers had cut a 17 point deficit down to 7, or 10 points, in a span of four minutes. They would only cut 5 more off in the last five minutes....all with Wilt on the bench.

Horrific coaching...the entire series...and the result...the coach quit before he was about to be fired, and his coaching career was essentially over.

So when Wilt played, they trailed by 17. When Wilt didn't play, because he faked an injury, the Lakers cut the lead to 2. Noted. Thank you for your insights.

So he would average 43/22/8 on 70% FG? Have you even watched basketball since Ilt played?
