Tell me what I Ced
Re: How many points would you average in the Wilt, Russell era?
I am 6'4", in my prime I was a semi-pro, and could do lame 360 dunks. Played point guard, and athleticism/ defense was my calling card.
I'd probably be Lenny Wilkins without the scoring ability, maybe better D, and probably average a lot of blocks.
One thing I wonder is if these old guys would upfake the **** out of all of us. Old guys are crafty at rec centres, imagine this, a whole league of crafty old guys in their primes. Scary shit, I might rack up the fouls - but you could punch players back then, so maybe not.
I'm gonna say I'd be a 4-5 time all-star, and make some all-D teams. I'd lock down scrubs like Twyman and Sharman. Big O, and West would pose problems for sure, until I force them both left
My stats probably:
12 ppg on 40% shooting, 50% FT
12 rpg
10 apg
4 spg (but who's counting)
4 bpg (but who's counting)
Probably best guard defender right after William Russell

Wow. I am 6'5 with a decent mid-range game, quick feet, and quick hands. I was more of a defender in high school, so I think that I could maybe get 8/10/2 ...8 points, 10 boards, and 2 steals a game.

Good High School Starter
Re: How many points would you average in the Wilt, Russell era?
I'm 5'9 max with the thickest sole shoes, so I think I could put up 2ppg today. But back then, maybe 15/10/10.

Re: How many points would you average in the Wilt, Russell era?
How about this...
put this kid, who was playing college ball in the mid-60's...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dfkalgtZraE
in THIS college era, where a Tyler Hansborough, who basically can't shoot, dribble, rebound, pass, or play defense...wins a CPOY...
and what numbers would HE be putting up?
And then think about this...
A PRIME Wilt was MUCH more dominant against the same centers (Reed, Imhoff, Dierking, Thurmond, and Bellamy) that a PEAK Kareem would face a few short years later.

And it was a steep uphill, both going, and coming back, too. Not to mention the 40 mph winds that blew in both directions, as well. And the schools didn't have roof's or walls, either.
