One could give various reasons or excuses on why he was so dominant but some of his stats are just crazy

Should probably give LeBron’s 3 gold medals and Olympics MVP some weightage then too.

Yes we all know the crazy stats and we all know the reasons.

Kareem sure, the other two, no.

Does he surpass MJ with that?

The difference between basketball and cricket are multiple.
1. The further back one goes, they almost "deduct points" for playing in a less professional or competitive era. Wilt was playing as a giant among mortals.
2. The sport in general (as with football), fairly or not, focuses on winning more than individual accomplishments. And Wilt got his ass handed to him by Russell a few too many times in finals.

I still think 2 and 3 are toss ups, but MJ is still no. 1 for me. 6 rings in 8 years is insane.

Pretty cool to see how much ahead MJ is in the best 5 year stretch exercise.

I mean Jordan has 2 Gold Medals too, and wins MVP in 84 if it existed. Could argue 92 MVP just based on 4 steals per game lol tho it probably goes to Barkley. Then again LeBron would probably win it in 08.

If LeBron wins a championship this year, I’ll rate him higher than Sachin
Hopefully he sees this post and it motivates him

I’m sure he’s extremely concerned about Sachin comparisons.

Haven’t seen the video. But Wilt had no block/ Steals being tracked. If it did, MJ would have no chance at all. Wilt blocked more shots than anyone ever. Those records only started to record once Wilt retired, at least someone else other than Wilt would have few records.

Wilt was like 1.5 inch taller than Shaq, running tracks, quicker than MJ, strong as hell. Anyone giving excuses that Wilt wouldn’t have all the records despite the era is smoking crack. The faster play of his time made the record even more ridiculous which would have been anyway in any era, even now.

Wilt was a giant among giant. Just look him and Shaq next to each other. Shaq makes everyone look small except when he stood next to Wilton Norman Chamberlain. Then average height has barely changed at all. They get to play with bums lot more now or in MJ’s time they did at Wilt’s time.
