"Did you know Wilt Chamberlain could dunk his FT’s? Jumping from beyond the line? They had to make a rule to ban this in 1956.

I consider people who mock Wilt’s greatness some of the dumbest on @NBA
Twitter".

They also widened the lane in the NBA when Wilt got there to give other players a chance at a rebound once in a while.

Wilt would dominate today if he were playing. Look at the records he holds. Nobody is even close (and he never shot a 3 pointer).

I don't care how good LeBron is, Jordan was...it doesn't matter. Even the fact that the game has gone to "small ball" doesn't matter. If you had a guy who could average 40 a game from 6 feet in, you'd pick him up in a minute and force the rest of the NBA to react.
