1987 ECSF vs. Bucks - 31 pts, 13 of them in the fourth quarter. Wayne Gretzky credited Bird's performance to "inspiring him" later on that night. He said, "I was watching Bird this afternoon on television, and the announcers kept talking about how the Celtics needed him to score if they were going to win, and in the fourth quarter Bird took charge and the Celtics won. When I came to the arena tonight, I was determined to do the same thing."[/QUOTE]

:cheers:
if you give me specific games to look up complete lines for, let me know (do you need game 5's as well for 5-game series?)
btw to outside observers (not that you'll necessarily care), I don't like/dislike Wilt, just wanted to try to complete the matchup table; I actually have Russ higher (one of three guys, with Magic and Jordan, who has an argument for GOAT), so if anything I'm a supporter of his ATM

Re: Game 7 Performances by All-Time Greats
Game five's of best-of-five series, and even game three's of best-of-three series should count, as well. Those are "elimination" games.
And, in which case, you SHOULD include Wilt's 56-35 and 53-22 games, too (as well as Kareem and Moses's '81 game three.)
Not only that, but you SHOULD also provide their opposing player's numbers (at least in positional H2H's.) Here again, Chamberlain was outscoring his opposing starting center by as much as 53-7.
BTW, here are Wilt's numbers in his 11 "absolute limit elmination" game's. 29.9 ppg, 26.1 rpg, and on a .581 FG% (incidently, in his game seven's, his FG% was .626, which is the highest of any all-time great in their game seven's.) Not only that, but Chamberlain crushed his opposing centers on the glass in those games, and held them to, on average, 9.8 ppg.

I'm too lazy to get all the shooting percentages, let's say they're not all great, is there a better way to search for this stuff than playoff game logs on basketball reference? ('scuse any errors)

if you give me specific games to look up complete lines for, let me know (do you need game 5's as well for 5-game series?)

Russell was the greater "winner" to be sure, but often overlooked was the fact that Russell's CELTICS beat Wilt's TEAMs in four game seven's, and by margins of 2, 1, 4, and 2 points. It's not as if Russell's Celtics were just annihilating Chamberlain's teams (most of which were heavily outgunned, and with rosters that generally played poorly.)
As far as individual numbers go, as you KNOW, Chamberlain DOUBLED Russell in scoring, outrebounded him by FIVE per game, and outshot him from the field, on average, by about a .500 to .400 overall FG% in their 143 H2H games. And you would be hard-pressed to find a dozen games in which Russell clearly outplayed Wilt, but you could easily find some 40+ in which Chamberlain just buried Russell.

greater player != better player in h2h matchups...I have Wilt at 4 right now not because he was a lesser player, but because I can't make a GOAT argument for Wilt, just as I can't for anyone other than those three players (including Kareem, who I have at 5 now, contrary to popular opinion)
that being said, GOAT lists don't mean much for me, I care a lot more about learning about players, doing research, and sharing with others...just felt the need to qualify the spreadsheet (since more often than not, a Wilt fan would present such findings) to note my objectivity

I'll see what I can find on those and any other games for which you need holes filled in
hopefully this thread is still busy tomorrow, since the ProQuest archives are a little whack today

There's actually many holes that need to be filled in in many of the games. As you can see on the list, Playoff games before 1984 that are not the Finals are missing reb, ast, FG-FGA.
But it's alright though. I want to atleast get the complete stats of the Top 10 GOATS Russell and Wilt.

My bad, I was going between wiki and bball reference at work. Look forward to seeing the full correct stats :cheers:

I actually have Russell, MJ, Magic, and Chamberlain, and in any order, at 1-4. I have Kareem slightly below them. Then Shaq and Duncan in a near tie, just below Kareem. And then Bird, Kobe, Hakeem, and Moses, in any order, 8-11. I base that on several criteria, including the fact that Wilt, saddled with inept rosters for nearly half of his career, nearly knocked out Russell's Celtics in FOUR game seven's. Not only that, but it was generally not Russell vs. Wilt in those matchups, but rather a swarming Celtic TEAM vs Wilt. That is well documented. And, keep in mind that when Chamberlain had a comparable supporting cast, that was healthy, as was the case in '67, his TEAM just destroyed the 60-21 Celtics...in a series in which Wilt overwhelmed Russell in EVERY facet of the game.
Chamberlain was an eye-lash away from 6-7 rings (losing a game seven to the 60-22 Knicks in '70.) And in the majority of his H2H's, he was simply the more dominant player on the floor.
In Russell's defense...he led his team's to 11 titles in 13 seasons. Aside from goling 13-13, what more could he have accomplised? And, along the way, he did whatever was necessary to win those rings, too. He had a 30-40 game seven (and a Finals' clinching game six of 30-38.) He had post-seasons of 20+ ppg. He led Boston in scoring in the '66 Finals, at 23.6 ppg. And his '65 Finals of 18-27 .702 is one of the greatest (and most under-rated) Finals in NBA history. And none of that even comes close to his overall defensive impact.
Still, all things considered, IMHO, Russell and Chamberlain are on the same overall level. Russell got more from his teammates, while Chamberlain carried his. And I still agree with John Wooden, who claimed that had Russell and Wilt swapped rosters, and likely it would have been Wilt with 11 rings. In any case, Chamberlain would surely have had considerably more than the two he wound up with.

When you miss 7, 8, 9 FTs in close games of 1, 2, 3 point losses, that happens
