Now stop with the ****ing tall tales :facepalm Wilt is no where near 40"
and that Nate dunk might not even be 40" but sure is way higher than Wilt could jump

Re: Wilt Chamberlain free throw dunks:
[QUOTE=bwink23]You find totally NOT funny things to be funny...i now question that your even 15 years old. Anyways, your seem blinded by the notion that cuz Wilt was playing in an athletically inferior(in general) era, that somehow has bearing on how he would do today. He would still be the most athletic and imposing center in the game today. AGREE or NO?? And if you don't agree, who do you think is the better athlete today at the center position?[/QUOTE]
Deuce thinks Jafail is better despite only being 251lbs and 6'11 in his bare feet with the IQ of a tomatoe. :lol
Not worth asking him

40" - yes
And I'm in good company about thinking he would dominate :cheers:
Every NBA player agree's. You won't find one that won't. Kobe ranked him #1 ahead of himself. U mad?

he doesn't get EVEN CLOSE to 40"
He wouldn't dominate because the only reason he dominated because he played in a weak era like George Mikan.

What do you guess his vertical to be???
Re: Wilt Chamberlain free throw dunks:
[QUOTE=bwink23]What do you guess his vertical to be???[/QUOTE]
Hard to tell. but it's not 40"
Some videos it looks only 2 feet.That one photo looks like 3 feet maybe

Despite Wilt being a Big-Seven and Big-Eight high-jump champion for both 1957 and 1958 - in addition to being a prestigious Drake Relay's winner, KU Relay's winner, and a KU indoor high-jump record setter - with a PR good enough for 5th place in the 1956 Olympics out of 27 nation's competitors - he's gonna say something hilarious and asinine like 32" :roll:
As if elite D1 borderline world-class high jumper's of his caliber just have the run-of the mill vertical of the average 20 year old white guy... :roll:

Larry Bird's max vert was 28" :roll:
Dwane Wade's is 36" - how close to elite D1 high jumpers do you think Dwane Wade is? :lol
Dude couldn't out jump the #1 high-schooler what makes u think 36" verticals are worthy of 5th place out of 27 global countries again?

I'm not sure how to imbed images on here...but there's pic on Google images of chamberlain at rim-level with his head on an in-game dunk....for him to accomplish that:
height = 85"
rim = 120 inches......he'd have had to jump at least 33-35" to dunk it like that....now you don't believe that he could do more if there was no ball, and he actually prepped for the jump??
