[raprap]

My nikka Wilt should have been #5






Any ways, my vote goes to Wilt Chamberlain

[TheBigVeto]

Tim Duncan

[colts19]

Wilt

[AlphaWolf24]

These people ranking Wilt and Bird

I know darn well 99% of the people never even watched em' play ..

I already know what's coming

[Deuce Bigalow]

Hands of Iron, do you vote Wilt or Shaq? (Some can say both are the most dominant)

[Psileas]

Wilt.

Not sure why it's a travesty that he's #6. Unless he's your clearcut GOAT, #2-6 is very interchangeable. It all depends on your criteria of a great player.

I look at individual dominance, but equally regard how that individual's play factored into the dynamics of the team. Part (but not all) of that assessment can be tallied through team wins, playoff record, championships, ect.

Tis why my personal Top 5 looks like this:

MJ
Russel
Magic/Kareem
Kareem/Magic
Bird

Not to say Wilt doesn't deserve to be up there. I've personally only researched enough old games, articles, and statistics to get an outline of the great player he was, so who am I to say he wasn't a Top 5 player? What I do know though, is that the 5 players listed above were great enough in their own right to be considered the Top 5 greatest, ever.

Unless Jordan is your (or anyone's) clear-cut #1 (which he isn't to many, since, even if they have him at #1, they admit it's arguable), he's subject to the same rule. Which means that a few others have a case to be above him. Now, rank all other GOAT candidates above Jordan and you'll get billed a hater.
Some hold Wilt in the same esteem as most fans do Jordan, so for them, having Wilt at #6 (or, even worse, not calling him a GOAT candidate) is a disgrace. And, honestly, I can't say I blame them.

At some point you have to acknowledge the existence of the guy who holds all the records for the sport you're supposed to be a fan of. Wilt.

Pretty much, he should be top 3 but I can see Magic being ahead. But Larry Bird? let's be reality

[no pun intended]

wilt...

[Clifton]

Wilt should take this one in a landslide.

Right?

Who else could it be? I guess Shaq... but when you consider how hard a time Shaq always had staying on the floor, be it injuries, fatigue, weight, fouls, whatever, while Wilt was famous for playing every minute of a game, and considering Shaq's prime was much shorter, you have to give it to Wilt I should think.

After Wilt it should be Shaq. Then it gets interesting... because names like Kobe and Duncan and Lebron will start to come up, alongside names like Hakeem Olajuwon and Oscar Robinson.

Nobody's ever been able to explain to me what makes Magic obviously better than Bird.

[Vertical-24]

Wilt "I F#cked Your B!tch and Your B!tch's B!tch at the same damn time" Chamberlain

[AlonzoGOAT]

Nobody's ever been able to explain to me what makes Magic obviously better than Bird.

This is ISH not the real world


Anyway Wilt is my vote and it's going to be a landslide in this thread so get ready to make the next one op
