PAC Hoops out of all people, you commented on a Wilt Chamberlain video

@@Ehh-nx7nk LMAO

ProtectedSouls4 Elgin Baylor top three all time

Top 3 probably but Dr. J has an argument and Durant or Hondo is 5

@@jamesmeuwissen7823 they're all in the discussion. Barry too.

@@jamesmeuwissen7823 dr j has no argument over baylor

He had a great career, but wasn't quite the same after about his first 6 yrs. Knee injuries cut his prime and career short. Much like Bird with back issues. Sad in both cases cuz a LeBron will have greater totals with his longevity and skipping college.

Along with Oscar, they expanded the game into the next phase.

@@Amick44 Took it above the rim and further away from the basket.

Im Lakers fun feom 80s but when Lebron came I dont like my Lakers anymore,I always looked at Lebron as Kobes rival I cannot root for him.

Most overrated player in NBA history IMHO

Facetious comment I know but, Russell played a pseudo zone. He was praised for that kind of disciplined defense (ignore the outside guys, focus on inside) by Veterans. H'd often let the big men or guards that switch out shoot - his job is to prevent high percentage layups first and foremost. He made the right play, Baylor was cruising backdoor if he'd have come up on Wiley he'd have lost the ability to cover ground and stop a potential Baylor bucket at the rim.

Wilt Chamberlain Archive these people don’t know basketball man

@@WiltChamberlainArchive Boston actually played a switching defense Russell guarded 1-5 idk what you are talking about

It bounced off the ground and into the air once before Russell caught it.

+Kris Klekosky Oh ok! :D

Tyler Hingleton I know. And he was still awesome. But before his first injury, he was insanely good. Boston had this mentality: Baylor will get his points no matter what we do, we have to limit West's scoring🤣 Which says more than enough about how awesome Baylor was.

So your saying Elgin Baylor should have really been the logo🤔

Plus a lot of people didn't know the guys that are playing today are playing run and gun ball just like these guys were in the sixties, but they were more focused on the outside shooters like Curry. Today's players would make it with the 60's and 70's rules due to the style of ball they play today which is pretty much similar, but won't make it with the 80's and 90's rules. Today's players who want to test their skills using the 60's and 70's rules had to be very careful when in possession with the ball because palming rules were more strict back then.

Plus, the NBA of today is starting going back to this type of basketball which is run and gun. The pace has increased and the ppg had skyrocketed this season compared to last. I guess fans want to see high scoring games instead of defensive borefest that the 90's had which lowered the ppg back then.

He drove and shot left handed on the first points of the game!

Ralph Menar Go and watch hours of Jordan, Iverson and Magic highlights and tell me how many times any of them take more than three consecutive dribbles with their left hands.

Ralph Menar uhm. Do you know why old timers mostly used one hand to dribble? The ballhandling rules were actually being enforced back then. The hand had to be on top of the ball at all times. Which meant no carrying, no crazy direction changes and constant bouncing. It was a loooot more difficult to dribble that way. Baylor said it in an interview, that what today's players do when they dribble would have been violations in his time. So I laigh at young people who think that old timers couldn't dribble. Any dildo can dribble today? Because you can carrtmy the ball and put your hand bellow the ball and cgange direction and pause the bouncing. Try it if you don't believe me. I had an old school coach and he busted my balls because I dribbled like MJ. It was muuuch harder to dribble the legal way.

kiikiikhan. Exactly.

If u watch a little closer you'll see he does dribble with his left. drives to the left and spins to the left. lol idk what ur watching.

A good portion of these players would be NBA players today. They're all tall and strong humans that are best at basketball. The difference is time and the game, not the people. And no question Russell would be a dominating big man. Top-level shot-blocker, defender, rebounder, and passer. He's one of the best ever for sure.

the all timers would fair just fine imo. ppl doubt that b/c they don't see the rippling muscles or breakoff rims, and obviously the disparity in the dribbling rules.

@@Frilleon There's no way any of these guys could play today, they have no tattoos and their basketball trunks are too short! 😁

Imagine a team with Russell at the 4 and Wilt at the 5. Nobody's scoring inside of 15 feet on that team.

ProtectedSouls4 The stars, yes.

Sooo close a coupla times.

he could guard you..

@@df550 I doubt that i'm waaay too quick for him

@@ricwatt maybe against 94 year old Bob Cousy Prime Cousy smoking you 999 to -1

Not until 1979

More like Magic Johnson n LeBron James game style looks like his

He had a nervous twitch, is that what you're talking about?

Yes! I figured it was something similar... wonder if it effected his game.

Apparently the only thing it affected was his opponents, who said if they reacted to the head twitch he'd blow by them lol

Perhaps it was simply a ploy to effect opponent game.

He's admitted in interviews he never even knew he did it, that he went to a doctor about it after the players or coach told him and the doc said he was fine it was just a nervous tic

Whoops forgot to put it in the title - 1963
