    Yes he had a huge stride. In one step he could cover a lot of ground.

    I'm sure that most fans here are not aware of the fact that Chamberlain "cushioned" his "slam dunks" from the late 60's on because he was afraid that he might injure someone, as well as preventing unnecessary exertion. There were no Sport Center highlights back then, so most players scored as easily as they could.

    Phila, this dunk has actually been seen before on the GSL documentary on Wilt as a highlight from a different angle, I've been editing the footage of this game and swore I saw several of these plays before from this game at least a few times before and I was right, the GSL special on Wilt contains several plays from the game, all from different angles than the original ABC broadcast but def the same plays.

    The dunk against Reed at 19:50 is what I had in mind when I watched this one.
    And now it seems to me that it actually is the same dunk.
