Actually, Mikan was involved in the most important rule change in basketball - the shot clock. The rule was made after a game where the opposing team dribbled for minutes without attempting to score so that they didn't have to face Mikan at the other end and the game ended 19-18. The shot clock made the game so much more popular and is the reason why we're all talking about basketball right now
This is a great one and I really appreciate seeing it up here. However I may or may not be mistaken but the nba was also greatly influenced by different dominant college athletes, it was already being discussed by the ncaa rules committee at the time; the nba instituted the rule in 54 before those egregious examples in college with Wilt playing for the Jayhawks but it was still happening in the ncaa. Te ncaa didn't institute a shot clock until 1980 I think, which is just ludicrous allowing something that unsportsmanlike and detrimental to the game for so long. One really interesting example where Wilt actually did cause an nba rule to change as a college player is the rule against players jumping past the free throw line during a free throw attempt; up to that point you could make jump shots and even jump past the line so long as you started somewhere in the semicircle behind the line. Wilt got an idea in practice and as a college player was dunking from the free throw line by just getting in a couple of steps from the top of the semicircle and leaping from there to the rim. A member of the ncaa rules committee happened to see this during that practice session and brought it up with the committee; they were concerned that not only would Wilt erase the difficulty of free throws but that he and other players could even just leap close enough for a layup or really short attempt. So they changed the free throw rule and the nba almost immediately followed suit as they were anticipating Wilt and a couple others doing this. You often hear about them not allowing Wilt to just bounce it off the backboard and essentially pass the ball to himself but this is one aspect of the free throw rules you don't often hear about and trust me you can confirm it all yourself a young Wilt in college was dunking from the free throw line without hardly any space to get a running start. That kind of athleticism would seem unbelievable if not for film of Chamberlain being that young and grabbing a ball right out of the air around the same height as the top of the backboard.
You know, I thought Mikan might be forgotten because most of these YT yahoos think the NBA didn't exist until Magic and Bird arrived on the scene. Even I had forgotten the 19-18 game, but that happened in 1950 and the shot clock wasn't instituted until 1954. Syracuse Nationals owner Danny Biasone was a big fan of the shot clock, and had worked out the math on the optimum time with his GM Leo Ferris. When the per team scoring average dropped below 80 in the 1953-54 season for the first time since 1949, the talk about adding the shot-clock turned into action. There had been some noise about a 20-second clock in the mid-2000s when that same average was below 100 for several seasons, and scoring didn’t improve until 2008-09. Fortunately, the league office showed proper patience and allowed the situation to work itself out. A growing reliance on 3-pt. shooting due to analytics definitely helped.
George Mikan was 6'11 in shoes. He had shooting touch and could have played today. He had natural agility and foot work. Just add a free throw jumper. There's always a spot for a rebounder and defender. As Pat Riley said "No rebounds, no rings". Brad Miller and Kevin Love were slightly smaller versions of George Mikan.

I’m trying to understand how wilt could say what he said to MJ when it shouldn’t have mattered if they changed the rules because his first 6 years in the league they only had 8-9 teams. So why couldn’t he produce championships before they changed the rules? Bill Russell dominated when it was 8-9 teams. What’s wilts excuse?

@@bricefleckenstein9666 I didn't say anywhere he dunked them in the NBA, I said the rule was changed in 1956. But you are right saying it wasn't changed at the same time in the NBA and NCAA, but the NBA changed the rule by 1961 (as cited on an article I found from that year). Also he was dunking them on the regular in practice, not just once, the rule was changed because Tex Winter (Kansas State's coach at the time, the other Kansas college) complained to the NCAA (or whatever it's name was back then), and he himself said, and I quote: "he would have a ft percentage of 100. He never missed", right after seeing him do that in practice. "He never missed" is talking about several instances, not just once, but several times. And he didn't turn them into layups because the NCAA changed the rule so that it said, and I quote:"a free throw must be made from inside the semicircle", meaning they had to shoot from behind the line in college since 1956. So Wilt never dunked it in college because back then 1st year students couldn't play on the team, and they banned it before his sophomore season began, and he never made them into a layup because the rule forbid that too, he had to shoot them lke nowadays. Alsohe never tried to lay or dunk themin the NBA because he and his coach Neil Johnston (Warriors' coach in 1960 and 1961) thought it was banned in the NBA as well, and they thought of using it in the 1960 Eastern Division Finals against Bill's Celtics, but didn't in the end because they knew (and were told by a ref) that the NBA would change it almost on the spot so that it woudn't be legal for the next game. So NCAA banned it in 1956 after an opposing coach saw him dunk them several times in practice and rused the NCAA to change it before the season started, and he didn't use it in the NBA because throughout his 1st season he and his coach thought it was banned, but the NBA ended up banning it for his 2nd NBA season. All that is stated in a couple articles I have from newspapers of those years, exactly as I'm telling you here.
@@pablogonzalo3330 Tex Winters was the head of the NCAA Rules Committee at the time, not JUST the Kansas State coach. You're adding details about the situation that I didn't mention (which is fine), but are agreeing with me on WHY the rule got changed. Wilt in his biography said he dunked freethrows in freshman practices a few times, starting from the half court line to get a running start, but had no intent to do so in a game. He has also stated he only did so ONCE in the practice that Tex was at in at least one interview. He might have done layup freethrows as well though, which would account for the wording of that Tex statement (assuming it was reported ACCURATELY - I've also seen that statement by Tex reported as "he would never miss" not "he never missed".) I suspect you are probably correct about why he never dunked them in the NBA prior to that rule getting changed, and I've certainly never seen anything to contradict that part. He DID do layup and "lob to himself" freethrows in the NBA though, as reported by SEVERAL sources and direct witnesses - probably why the NBA made the rule change before his second year in the league.
@@bricefleckenstein9666 well, his intent for games wasn't specified in the articles I found, but I doubt even he would attempt it regularly, it would have been too tiring. Tthogh if the articles I have found are accurate to Tex's words then he literally dunked them (or it) in front of Tex, but I also heard an interview to Tex in which he states that Wlt dunked at least 1 freethrow (he didn't specify the number). What I find weird is that there is people saying he did lay them while in the NBA but the article I found where they specify when and why was the rule changed in the NBA has a quote by a ref saying: "he COULD get by with it. The rules say only that you can't make contact with the floor in front of the foul line until the ball either hits the rim or the backboard. And his DUNK would already be through the hoop when he landed. I don't see any way we could legally prevent it." So from that I get that he never tried something like that, but there's a possibility he is talking explicitly about dunking, as the reported apparently asked for the dunk in particular seeing that he wrote about a hypothetical scenario where he dunked it, and thus making the layup thing possible, but if the wording of the ref was taken accurately I don't think he ever made a layup from the freethrow or lobed it to himself. And mostly I don't think it ever happened in an NBA game becaause the article I found on when they changed it in the NBA says that they made the rule change because apparently a story appeared in the Daily News that said Wilt MIGHT try this form of foul shooting. And again they use a wording that amkes it seem as it was just a wild idea of Wilt (or the media) and not something that had been happening throughout the last year.
@@pablogonzalo3330 Wilt stated the "never intended to dunk a freethrow in a game" in "Wilt". I've seen more than one reference to Tex stating he SAW Wilt dunk once in a practice - the "more than once" seems to be unsubstantiated but the one time is well documented. The "lay up in an NBA" claim has weak substantiation. I've seen the claim made by a few sources, but I'm not sure if I've ever seen a "direct witness" claim about it. It's possible he did it during the warmup BEFORE one or more NBA games, but not during an actual game before it was outlawed - but there's no question that he was the cause of the foul shot rules change.
I love Iverson and as a teenage i would've probably been on his side but being 36 now i completely understand Stern's decision..like yo this is work bruh not the streets and your being paid millons of dollars a year..u make more for one game than an average person does in a year..money won't change me or my mentality when it comes to many things but if i was an nba player id check myself like "yo you're being paid a fortune to do what u love" and beyond the money it's just professional which is what these guys are supposed to be
I love what Wilt said to Jordan. They didn't really change a rule for Jordan because he dominated the game. If anything they made it easier for him to dominate in an era where the talent level was at its lowest.
I think they designed the rules to favor offense and a faster pace. Steph Curry kinda took it all to the next level, basically doubling up on what they were trying to do (or proving the rule changes weren't necessary at all). It went from play-driven offense ending in contact-heavy attempts in the post to guys lining up near half court before the defense is even set, and if they do attempt to drive, a slap, real or fake, is a foul.
Its because of traveling being allowed today. Its extremely easy to drive it in when you can travel. The whole point of dribbling is to make the game more difficult. Big freakishly athletic big guys like David Robinson would be getting like 50 points a game in today's league.
Agreed! I wear baggy clothes every single day. Not because I'm black or because I grew up in the projects... But because it's more comfortable & I feel better about myself when I ain't wearing tight ass clothing.
Racist rule? Since when is clothes considered a race? They just did not like what the style represented. For you to say it was racist is kind of racist, because you are identifying thugs as a race. Not saying I agree with the rule, just stating what the nba felt.. However it's alot better than the communist china shills that are there today. That includes popovich.
No, hand checking continued past Jordan. The big rule change he would have had SOME input into was when the Flagrant Foul rule grew TEETH after 1990, but that was more about the Bad Boys Pistons, Laimbeer, and the league in general getting TOO rough.
Actually, Mikan was involved in the most important rule change in basketball - the shot clock.

So NCAA banned it in 1956 after an opposing coach saw him dunk them several times in practice and rused the NCAA to change it before the season started, and he didn't use it in the NBA because throughout his 1st season he and his coach thought it was banned, but the NBA ended up banning it for his 2nd NBA season.
All that is stated in a couple articles I have from newspapers of those years, exactly as I'm telling you here.
@@pablogonzalo3330 Tex Winters was the head of the NCAA Rules Committee at the time, not JUST the Kansas State coach.
You're adding details about the situation that I didn't mention (which is fine), but are agreeing with me on WHY the rule got changed.
Wilt in his biography said he dunked freethrows in freshman practices a few times, starting from the half court line to get a running start, but had no intent to do so in a game.
He has also stated he only did so ONCE in the practice that Tex was at in at least one interview.
He might have done layup freethrows as well though, which would account for the wording of that Tex statement (assuming it was reported ACCURATELY - I've also seen that statement by Tex reported as "he would never miss" not "he never missed".)
I suspect you are probably correct about why he never dunked them in the NBA prior to that rule getting changed, and I've certainly never seen anything to contradict that part.
He DID do layup and "lob to himself" freethrows in the NBA though, as reported by SEVERAL sources and direct witnesses - probably why the NBA made the rule change before his second year in the league.
@@bricefleckenstein9666 well, his intent for games wasn't specified in the articles I found, but I doubt even he would attempt it regularly, it would have been too tiring. Tthogh if the articles I have found are accurate to Tex's words then he literally dunked them (or it) in front of Tex, but I also heard an interview to Tex in which he states that Wlt dunked at least 1 freethrow (he didn't specify the number).
What I find weird is that there is people saying he did lay them while in the NBA but the article I found where they specify when and why was the rule changed in the NBA has a quote by a ref saying: "he COULD get by with it. The rules say only that you can't make contact with the floor in front of the foul line until the ball either hits the rim or the backboard. And his DUNK would already be through the hoop when he landed. I don't see any way we could legally prevent it." So from that I get that he never tried something like that, but there's a possibility he is talking explicitly about dunking, as the reported apparently asked for the dunk in particular seeing that he wrote about a hypothetical scenario where he dunked it, and thus making the layup thing possible, but if the wording of the ref was taken accurately I don't think he ever made a layup from the freethrow or lobed it to himself. And mostly I don't think it ever happened in an NBA game becaause the article I found on when they changed it in the NBA says that they made the rule change because apparently a story appeared in the Daily News that said Wilt MIGHT try this form of foul shooting. And again they use a wording that amkes it seem as it was just a wild idea of Wilt (or the media) and not something that had been happening throughout the last year.
@@pablogonzalo3330 Wilt stated the "never intended to dunk a freethrow in a game" in "Wilt".
I've seen more than one reference to Tex stating he SAW Wilt dunk once in a practice - the "more than once" seems to be unsubstantiated but the one time is well documented.
The "lay up in an NBA" claim has weak substantiation. I've seen the claim made by a few sources, but I'm not sure if I've ever seen a "direct witness" claim about it.
It's possible he did it during the warmup BEFORE one or more NBA games, but not during an actual game before it was outlawed - but there's no question that he was the cause of the foul shot rules change.
I love Iverson and as a teenage i would've probably been on his side but being 36 now i completely understand Stern's decision..like yo this is work bruh not the streets and your being paid millons of dollars a year..u make more for one game than an average person does in a year..money won't change me or my mentality when it comes to many things but if i was an nba player id check myself like "yo you're being paid a fortune to do what u love" and beyond the money it's just professional which is what these guys are supposed to be
Shaq: I broke backboard
I love what Wilt said to Jordan.
They didn't really change a rule for Jordan because he dominated the game. If anything they made it easier for him to dominate in an era where the talent level was at its lowest.
Wilt Chamberlain is like a Myth
Yes he is but he did what he did! ( paul Bunyan & babe did not!)
All good rule changes
5:22 then why is Billie Eilish being exempt😂
no wonder shaq broke 19 rims. The rims mocked him and they got karma
They disrespected him, and Shaw took a page from MJ, cuz he clearly took it personally XD
Where is the other guy? With the legendary voice
The nba needs to change the rule just to make MJ dominant HAHAHAHA so GOAT😂
They should raise the height of the rim. PLayers are gettring to the rim too easily these days.
I think they designed the rules to favor offense and a faster pace. Steph Curry kinda took it all to the next level, basically doubling up on what they were trying to do (or proving the rule changes weren't necessary at all). It went from play-driven offense ending in contact-heavy attempts in the post to guys lining up near half court before the defense is even set, and if they do attempt to drive, a slap, real or fake, is a foul.
Its because of traveling being allowed today. Its extremely easy to drive it in when you can travel. The whole point of dribbling is to make the game more difficult. Big freakishly athletic big guys like David Robinson would be getting like 50 points a game in today's league.
The Iverson dress code rule change was a very racists rule change.
Agreed! I wear baggy clothes every single day. Not because I'm black or because I grew up in the projects... But because it's more comfortable & I feel better about myself when I ain't wearing tight ass clothing.
Racist rule? Since when is clothes considered a race? They just did not like what the style represented. For you to say it was racist is kind of racist, because you are identifying thugs as a race. Not saying I agree with the rule, just stating what the nba felt.. However it's alot better than the communist china shills that are there today. That includes popovich.
following your reasoning would be racist for a woman to be denied to enter a church in bikini?
Nah bro. Everyone was dressing like they shopped at Walmart 😂
It was implemented after the 2004 Malice at the Palace fight, because it gave the NBA a reputation that it represented thug culture.
This isn’t technically a rule, but Derek Fisher invented the rule the got people saying under 0.4 seconds, that you could only tip it in
I thought Chris Bosh was the reason they banned hand checking.
No one Could beat Shaq in his Prime without Kobe Phill and the Lakers and even that wasn't true
Just like weather people change.
New Era, New Rules
Nice
forget about the flop king rule...hahaha
Yao Ming ? Managed to stop Shaw in his prime
I miss kobe Bryant I still remember him
Day 2 of asking Non Stop Sports about doing the most underrated players in NBA History
Where is the rule against flopping by LeFlop? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
In today's NBA, rules are being put in place because players are flopping too much like rabbits not because of physical abilities.
Nothing just was enough to stop Jordan.... nothing
5:42 says that while the other guy it is literally wearing ai stuff
Btw the hand check was a jordan rule
No, hand checking continued past Jordan.
The big rule change he would have had SOME input into was when the Flagrant Foul rule grew TEETH after 1990, but that was more about the Bad Boys Pistons, Laimbeer, and the league in general getting TOO rough.
What about zaza?
The broken rim tree. Is an art piece which has nothing to do with shaq or rims he has broken. Only connection is the photo.
Shaq was never below 300 lbs He came into league weighing 310
shaq came in to the NBA at 290 lbs.
@@MovieGuy666 No he was 310. I still remember the Sports Illustrated article about him right before he was drafted and he was stated to be 310
The spurs "only" won 3 titles during that run? Thought it was more
With bowen, 5 total for td
James Harden is also one of the biggest floppers.
does anyone in the uk- london who wants to play me in a one on one
im down
