Wilt Chamberlain is the best ever. The GOAT. He has more NBA records than anybody and he scored 50 points for the whole season average. Nobody even comes close. He could also benchpress 600 pounds. I don’t think Michael Jordan could do half of that.
Wilt doesn't get any respect. I think he's the greatest of all time. Jordan statically doesn't have anything on him. Plus in jordan times there was 3 point shot. Wilt didn't have 3 point shot. Even though I don't think he would have shot many 3's
Wilt had almost as many *50* point games (118) as Kobe had 40. Wilt had more 50 point games IN ONE SEASON (the famed 50.4 season, had 46 or so) than Jordan had in his CAREER in second (31). He had something like 65 40 point games in that season - about enough to make the CAREER Top 10. And don't try to give me the "plumber" lie - he faced BILL RUSSELL during 12 games that season.
Realistically there's only two players who could be deemed the greatest player of all time (goat). Wilton Norman Chamberlain and Michael Jeffrey Jordan are the two players. 1. The only player to score a 100 points in a game ? Wilton Norman Chamberlain. 2. The only player to average 50 ppg in a season ? Wilton Norman Chamberlain. 3. The player with the highest ppg career ?

Wilton Norman Chamberlain 271 Michael Jeffrey Jordan 173 Not even close Wilton Norman Chamberlain. 6.The player who the NBA change the rules to make the game more difficult for that player ? Wilton Norman Chamberlain. 7.The player who the NBA change the rules to make the game more easier for that player ? Michael Jeffrey Jordan 8.Didn't factor championships because that a team accomplishment. But if factored, Bill Russell would get that point. 9. The 60s, 70s and 80s were the best competition for NBA with great teams and great players such as Julius Irving, Magic Johnson, Elgin Baylor, Larry Bird, Bill Russell and so on, LeBron James and Kobe Bryant would have been role players in this Era. 10. There's a small group of players who would have dominated in any Era and at the top of the list would be Wilton Norman Chamberlain. No more talk, the greatest player of all time ?

Individual accolades, let's see percentage of team wins.
Wilt blows everyone out the water but Jordan Mike still has the highest ppg than anyone including Wilt.MJ the 🐐.
It's not even close. Go ahead and look up 50 point and 60 point games. Wilton Norman Chamberlain has more 60 point games than the rest of the history of the NBA combined! Wilt: thirty-two 60 point games. The rest of the NBA: twenty-four 60 point games! What.....?!😳
KOBY TOP 3
Luka hasn’t even been in the league close to 10 years yet and look at all the hall of fame players he’s already surpassed geez!!
Wilt Chamberlain is the best ever. The GOAT. He has more NBA records than anybody and he scored 50 points for the whole season average. Nobody even comes close. He could also benchpress 600 pounds. I don’t think Michael Jordan could do half of that.
Wilt doesn't get any respect. I think he's the greatest of all time. Jordan statically doesn't have anything on him. Plus in jordan times there was 3 point shot. Wilt didn't have 3 point shot. Even though I don't think he would have shot many 3's
All advanced stats has Jordan ahead. Plus you know winning too.
What's crazy is that MJ put up those numbers during the toughest defensive era AND won.
my idol James harden
This video is ridiculously slow even on 2x speed.
Wilt had almost as many *50* point games (118) as Kobe had 40.
Wilt had more 50 point games IN ONE SEASON (the famed 50.4 season, had 46 or so) than Jordan had in his CAREER in second (31).
He had something like 65 40 point games in that season - about enough to make the CAREER Top 10.
And don't try to give me the "plumber" lie - he faced BILL RUSSELL during 12 games that season.
So, would there be a BOTTOM NBA players with most 40-point games list?
All of wilt numbers drop in the playoffs that is a slight knocked on your legacy
271 40 point games what the hell
Jordan 100 games more that LeBron on almost 10 seasons less played that him ..
Realistically there's only two players who could be deemed the greatest player of all time (goat). Wilton Norman Chamberlain and Michael Jeffrey Jordan are the two players.

Wilton Norman Chamberlain.
2. The only player to average 50 ppg in a season ?
Wilton Norman Chamberlain.
3. The player with the highest ppg career ?
Michael Jeffrey Jordan 30.12.
Wilton Norman Chamberlain 30.07

4. The only player to score 4000 points in a season ?
Wilton Norman Chamberlain.
5. The player with the most 40+ points per games career ?
Wilton Norman Chamberlain 271
Michael Jeffrey Jordan 173
Not even close
Wilton Norman Chamberlain.
6.The player who the NBA change the rules to make the game more difficult for that player ?
Wilton Norman Chamberlain.
7.The player who the NBA change the rules to make the game more easier for that player ?
Michael Jeffrey Jordan
8.Didn't factor championships because that a team accomplishment. But if factored, Bill Russell would get that point.
9. The 60s, 70s and 80s were the best competition for NBA with great teams and great players such as Julius Irving, Magic Johnson, Elgin Baylor, Larry Bird, Bill Russell and so on, LeBron James and Kobe Bryant would have been role players in this Era.
10. There's a small group of players who would have dominated in any Era and at the top of the list would be Wilton Norman Chamberlain.
No more talk, the greatest player of all time ?
WILTON NORMAN CHAMBERLAIN.
Carmello
Russell Westbrook hell no 😅
LeBron can play 50 years and never catch Wilt Chamberlain
Another reason why Jordan is the GOAT
They down wilt because of rings.
