    Reminds me of Wade's Windmill Crossover the way he brings the ball over the defender's head.

    That was awesome.

    Seeing even the smallest of clips from Wilt always interests me.

    Yes Bob was a monster back then and a great defender. He would be shutting down Howard if he played today.

    Well, Chamberlain played in a total of about 1200 full NBA games in his career, counting the playoffs. That comes to about 900 HOURS of game play. And yet, there is probably no more than a couple of hours of video footage on Wilt.

    BTW, wouldn't it be great to have just ONE of his 32 60+ point games available? Even ONE of his 271 40 point games would be nice, don't you think?

    Wilt's head easily at rim level, blocking Oscar's shot.

    An older Wilt still had hops and quickness. Even with a hurt hand easily goes around his man and jams it.

    Great move but that video alone suggests Wilt's vertical is no where near 50".

    The vid only proves that Wilt was a finesse player. Good vid BTW.
