Special fact about Wilt's historic 55 rebound performance

[LAZERUSS]

Dude stop lying, Milwad had old posts of you saying you never watched Wilt and how you thought he was overrated and a product of his era.

And he was a complete liar.

Never said either.

He also claimed that Hakeem never defended Kareem, either (and in a way, he was right.)

Chamberlain's 55-19 margin over Russell in '61 translates to about a 32-11 margin in today's NBA.

It would be the equivalent of DJ outrebounding Drummond by a 32-11 margin.

I think it's closer to 36-13.

I think it's closer to 36-13.

Actually, you are right.

Can you imagine ESPN's coverage in a game in which Wilt outrebounded Drummond by a 36-13 margin?

As a side-note...Russell and Drummond were the same height.

I think it's closer to 36-13.

I wonder how a prime Chamberlain would have fared against a prime Moses?

Chamberlain OVERWHELMED Russell in 75% of their H2H games...and in EVERY aspect of the game. I could show literally a HUNDRED games in which Chamberlain outsored AND outshot Russell from the field, and in MANY by HUGE margins.

:

Lets see Russell was known as the best defender ever, and there is no real stat for defense, so not sure how you are claiming that Wilt overwhelmed him in every aspect of the game..Just shows once again that you don't understand basketball and are like a 12 year old who found a stat book.

By the way are there any stats for blocking shots to teammates to start fast break? Are there any stats for setting up on the high post on offense so your teammates have more room to maneuver? Are there any stats for picks and screens? Are you any stats for what you did when the game was in doubt vs what you did when the game was already over?
