    28 &14reb on a off night.Equivalent to Embiid offensively,minus the free-throw shooting.And would certainly lead the league in rebounds,decisively.

    Wilt would be way more dominant in today's game. The league favors offense and who the hell is going to stop him. As far as shooting threes why would he do that when he can feast in the paint. He could average 40 to 50 points per game and still rebound about the same. The only thing in his game that would suffer is his blocks and steals and the NBA didn't count those anyway.

    There might have not been many 7 footers when he started, but several came along after 3 or 4 years into his career. In his prime he was a human cheat code. After his prime he still was, not quite as fast, but still fast enough, with no loss of strength. I don't have to watch all of this to know he would dominate any time period. If he could have ran over defenses, like O'Neal, which I am glad the game was officiated much better, back then, there would be no viable argument against him being the greatest, by far. He averaged 40 ppg and over 20 rebounds per game, all of his first 6 seasons, anyway. I don't believe he would have played like that, even if allowed to, unless somebody made him mad.

    wilt would domiante today. yes. in fact the three point line thing. wilt was known to have been seen making 20/25 baskets from half court in practice, there is a video of him making 4 three pointers in a row (i mean it wasn' a three point line but he was standing at the edge of the court paralell to the basket which is the hardest one to make) on a 5 dollar bet. someone recently said that he actaully had 10 in a row before the video een started so yeah there was noone defending im but that shows he had the skill to also be a three point shooter. not to mention he never fouled out of a game in 13 years in an era where they called a lot of offensive fouls. plus he would have the access to modern doctors, travel , diet , shoes, etc... and knowledge, they were allowed to double hand check in his day, and was often triple teame . so yes wilt would dominate today just fine

      I seen the film you’re talking about as well, but you’re actually wrong about the “never fouled out of a game” part. In 1962 he played every minute (48 minutes) in every game of the season EXCEPT for the last 6-7 minutes of the last game of the regular season he got a second tech and was fouled out.

    Wilt Chamberlain would be a superstar/hall of famer no doubt. I’m not going to say he was just the best as everything ever, but the man is my goat. Damn near everything about him sounds like a fairytale but I mean hey there have been taller people, and his strength sounds absurd, but when people like Andre the Giant exist and we’re about as strong it makes sense.
    He said in the video he thinks Wilt would average Giannis-like stats. I think this is an understatement. He would most undoubtedly average AT LEAST 20 rpg probably over his career. Now I would expect him to stay healthier but still play around 14-17 years as a top 10 player for 10 years. Sounds reasonable enough to me, the man is basically an alien 👽.
    So yeah that’s my opinion, I won’t appreciate any hate, but I will respect opinions. Have a good day

      Talking about wilt average 20 rebounds, laugh,laugh,, scoring maybe 35points average games, wilt would've learn new low 📫 post scoring points moves like tornado 🌪 or wheeling toward the basket 🧺 unstoppable

    If he played less minutes , he would be fresher and more dominating. Since his competition was less, he didn’t have to work as hard and at times, maybe was complacent. It’s impossible to say how good he would be today but he was a track star in college, weight lifted absurd amounts and was an all star type volley ball star. I just don’t feel that any other basketball star was or is in his league!!!!

      What centers today would stop him? These none athletic, boney lanky centers nowdays would get dominated by Wilt. Rudy Gobert vs Wilt? c'mon In the 90s where there were more HOF centers than ever in league history, would be a different story.

    13 teams. 12 players each. 156 spots, not 30 x 15-20 like today, or 450-500 spots available. No centers? Russell, Thurmond, Unseld, Reed, Kareem, Cowens, Lanier, Bellamy, so today we have better centers? You can look those guys up in the same place I did, The HOF. You let me know when you have two centers that are high jump champions, since then. I suggest you do a bit more research as to the quality of the competition, and Wilts abilities. Your selling Wilt way short.
