Saw Wilt at a charity meeting one time this was late 70s or maybe early 80s. He was giving a local tv station interview you know, United Way or something.
Anyhow the guy asked him who was the best player he ever saw.... Wilt said "Meadowlark Lemon."
I've also read I think in one of his own books, #13 said when he was a Globetrotter old Meadowlark would shoot a no-look hook shot from half court..... and he'd make that shot every darn time! lol

Inb4 Deuce comes in and turns this into a straw-man argument by trying to suggest Wilt fans all once "believed" that Wilt sank blind full court hook shots with his left hand on a regular basis during games - and that this video is actually proof we are all fools for believing all of that because this clearly isn't during a game and is only right handed from the corner
Re: Wilt Chamberlain swishes four 3-point range hook shots in a row
just noticed something verry strange about this wilt video. if you look at the other laker player's mouth when he says "this is the one i'm talkin about for 5 dollars"
it almost looks like its shopped in. looks verry strange.
watch from 0:19 to 0:21
might be fake now that i saw this. his mouth looks stretched and weird like a guy was making his lips move with a computer...

Nah, he'll just post the famous Bob Cousy dribbling gif, aka, the argument to end all arguments.

What's your point? That he actually never opened his mouth? That he said something else? Provide evidence.
BTW, there had been a user many years ago in another forum (the insiders and later RealGM) who had claimed he had viewed a video of Wilt making exactly such types of shots. Probably he was talking about the same "fake" footage that almost anyone here is looking for the first time.
