He could finish and protect the paint. How would he be unplayable?

Wilt is the definition of a playoffs choker. For a guy his size he struggled offensively while being guarded by 6'9.5" Bill Russell.

Might be a better version of Gobert. Joel Embiid is going to drain several 3 pointers while being guarded by Wilt.

Embiid hasn't shot good against Gobert so he'd have his hands full with a better version

He was probably a more athletic version of Shaq but with different moves in the post.

Re: Wilt Chamberlain is limited offensively
You are an idiot Lebron 23.
Wilt in his first 7 seasons in the league, Wilt led the league in scoring every year, he played in 52 playoff games, but only played in 1 NBA Finals series. In his final 7 seasons in the league, Wilt never led the league in scoring, he played in 108 playoff games and played in 5 NBA Finals series. If the award existed at the time, Wilt would have been named the 1967 Finals MVP, and he was named the 1972 Finals MVP. Most of his critics love to bring up this out of context argument (e.g., 7.6 point difference between his regular season and playoff scoring average) in order to protect their sacred (e.g., Jordan, James, Abdul-Jabbar) cows.
I would bet the farm that none of his critics knows that in his 52 playoff games when he was a scorer Chamberlain averaged 32.8 points, 26.6 rebounds, and shot 50.5 from the field. No player in NBA history had a playoff series averaging 32.9 points and 26 rebounds, yet Wilt averaged that over the span of 10 playoff series.

16 PPG Lakers in 80 games/53%
25 PPG 76ers in 44 Games/54%
*34.7 PPG Warrior's 36games/50%
Wilt Warriors playoff average is still the league record among all 30 franchise leaders in Playoff PPG, which includes Jordan Bulls.
Wilt played in 29 postseason series, the majority of them played from 1966-73, and Wilt's teams went 18-11 in them. Anyone wondering about Wilt's drop-off in career average points from the regular season to the playoffs (30.1 to 22.5) should know that when Wilt was the main shot taker on his team he put up 39.6 season PPG and 32.9 playoffs PPG. in his first seven years.

Youre probably right. What I meant was they would have similar physical dominance over their competition.
