Basketball Purists Questioning The Authenticity of Wilt's 100 Points

[Koolaid_Man]

face it, there's no video evidence of it...you had old guys not properly record taking...could barely see and willing to inflate Wilt's stats to get him the record against the smaller white guys.

Kobe's 81 is far more impressive according to Espin...




You'll recall, sadly, that there's no footage of Chamberlain rumbling for triple digits in Hershey, Pa., on March 2, 1962. Which makes it tough to commission an in-depth analysis comparing Wilt's feat (scoring 100 of his team's 169 points that day) to Kobe's (81 of 122). But there's really no need. The folks who did see the 100-pointer and the game's historians would be forced to tell you that the entire fourth quarter was a back-and-forth scramble between one team trying desperately to get Wilt the record and another trying to keep him from getting it. Wilt himself is quoted on the Basketball Hall of Fame's Web site as calling that fourth quarter "a farce."

Ah saltiness

[unforeseen]

The Washington Generals are better than the Toronto Raptors that year.

I have yet to see a video of Kobe actually leading his team to a title

He led his team to the "Biggest Failure in Sports History" title this past year, tbh....

[Clipper Nation]

This > Kirby's stat-padded, ballhogged, and ref-aided 81 against a shitty Raptors team....

Boiled Down::

100>81

Let us proceed

[CitizenDwayne]

But there was still a team trying to stop him from getting the record...and he still did...

those teams he padded his stats against, those teams are horrendous with alot of records scored against them, so if anyone having a career night against any of these teams is nothing to gloat about

[racm]

Kobe's 81 was scored against a Raptors team that started Matt Bonner at the 4/5 and would win the 2006 Draft Lottery (which they used to pick Andrea Bargnani; :lmao Colangel:loll)

some of my other favorite kobe moments

18 y/o kobe dropping pippen's # on jordan :lol

30 in a single quarter

man, kobe has a plethora of 50-point explosions and a litany of playoff conquests. this guy is absolutely amazing.


the Lakers were playing terribly. they were behind 63-43 at halftime and looked lifeless, but then young kobe took over, carried shaq's ass away from humiliation. bryant scored 33 of his 38 points in the second half schooling mcgrady and the magic

[RsxPiimp]

and we all know this is one of the reason why dwight left, kobe baptized him when he came to the league (kobe also basically nailed dwight's coffin by taking dwight's only chance to win an nba title as an alpha in the 2009 nba finals:lol) but yeah, this was a jarring reminder to which dwight couldnt ever accept

speaking of baptism, how about "the Dunk" on Yao? funny thing is people focus on the dunk alone completely overlooking the fact that kobe also had 52 pts 8 rebs 7 assts :hat

In unrelated news, there are holocaust deniers because all history older than 15 years is fake. In fact, the world was created in 1867, when the first motion picture recorder was created. Anything that happened before didn't happen because there was no video evidence.

Scored 60 or more points in a game:
Wilt 32x
Kobe, Jordan 5x
....

[Ozzy]

Ah, and there is also this...


He was exceptionally high-earning as a professional athlete. When playing for Philadelphia, he commuted from New York. Typically he awoke at noon and stayed up late into the night. Moving to Los Angeles, he built a magnificently luxurious residence in Bel-Air, yet he rarely hired a housekeeper, cooked his own food and washed dishes by hand.[147] He reported 20,000 sexual relationships with women and never married or had children, completely per his intention.

[Sportcamper]

Strange comparison IMHO...That’s like comparing 60’s cheerleaders to 90's cheerleaders…
They were both the best of the best in their day…

^ that just further proves my point....Wilt having 32 - 60 point games proves everything back thing was a joke and also he faced no real competition in those days

Come on! Wilt was just an average Joe back then...

Proof!
