1975 Finals Game 3 1st half

For anyone that says Wilt and Russell are GOATs..
Look I love Wes unseld but 85% of these guys would have no chance in todays NBA. The athletic ability, preparation, training and skill is on another level. And this is the 70s imagine the 60s

So many strong hairlines.
Literally not one of those nikkas was bald / balding at all.
What happened to black people between then and now? What did they do to us, brehs?


Edit: Oh and at 70's basketball.

I don't get what you're trying to prove here.

Wes Unseld was great but he was seeing neither Russell or Chamberlain. IDK how Bill would fare in this era but I'd bet everything on Wilt dominating in any era. His combination of strength/athleticism would give anyone problems and he was very gifted for someone his size.

In what era would a 7'2 300 lb champion high jumper who ran a sub 11 second 100 yard dash in the 1950's and who also happened to have basketball skills out the ass not dominate?

Dude was one of the greatest athletes ever and Russell while he didn't have all of Wilt's physical gifts was also a terrific athlete and one of the smartest of all time.

In 50 years if society is still around people are gonna be saying this same shyt about Bron, Kobe. MJ, Shaq, Duncan etc. He was great but look at the era he played in. Players from way back then couldn't compete with these modern day beasts.

A great basketball player is great no matter what era he's in. Look up that video of Russell going coast to coast jumping over a man and softly laying it in and tell me he wouldn't be great in today's nba.

Wes Unseld was one of the best defensive players ever and one of only players to win Rookie of the Year and the MVP in the same year

Elvin Hayes

But they got swept and only won 1 'chip in 3 attempts.

Wilt won ROY/MVP as well.
