    You'd think with all this amazing nutritional science we'd have at least one 7 footer in the NBA with half the athleticism of Wilt.

    I'd give Dwert the label of half as athletic, but calling him 6'10" is charity.

    The Sporting News article from the 50's says that Wilt had a 25 inch vertical..pretty unimpressive, tbh..
    That's already been addressed as a fallacy. It has been do ented for decades. Even stiffs in the league has a higher vertical than 25 inches. He's a won the State Championship High Jumper in college...with poor techniques and form.

    Wilt Chamberlain won the 1957 Drake Relays university / college high jump at 6' 6 1/4"

    That's why athletic freaks like DeAndre Jordan and Gerald Green are dominating the league today.

    It's unfair to compare teams from two vastly different eras. Even this years Kentucky Wildcats roster would demolish any NBA team in the 60's or even 70's.
    Well this year's Kentucky Wildcats roster would demolish the current Lakers so...

    And in all of that you don't have anything constructive beyond to say that steroids are better nowadays. I won't disagree with you there. Pharmacology is good science.
    You're focusing on the wrong thing. It's not just the pharmacology, it's the methods of implementation.

    There's a lot of ignorance with the general public regarding steroid cycles, post-cycle therapy(PCT) and steroid stacks in general. Athletes in the 30's-80's/90's were guinea pigs. The science was minimal and it was almost strictly trial and error in the field of bodybuilding/fitness training. Athletes today are benefiting from that trial and error as well as the advancements in science.

    The guy who referred to "steriod muscle" as water (resulting in ostensibly strong and athletic freaks who are nothing more than chiseled weaklings), sounds like a assclown. The athletes aren't just visibly more impressive, they are considerably stronger and faster, which is supported by data.

    We have a lot of people on here touting Chamberlain as the prime example for comparable and even superior athletes half a century ago. We have a difficult time pulling accurate data from the 80's for 40-yard dash times and standing vert. If you're willing to accept numbers from the 50's then so be it. Maybe he was truly a superior athlete capable of transcending decades/centuries. Good for him. He was playing against some white, 6'3" centers. He should have put up stupid numbers. DeAndre Jordan in the 50's would also be regarded as one of the greatest of all time now. What about everyone else? Take the best sprinters, powerlifters, etc. from the 30's-80's with their olympic times/measurements, and lets compare them to now. You get Jesse Owens, I'll take Usain Bolt. The steroids have gotten better, the science regarding cycles and stacks have gotten better and the training methods while using PEDs have also gotten better. Usain knows what roids to use, how to use them, how to train while on them and what kind of diet he'll need to break world records.

    Oh and and just one for you to get buttfrustrated over because he flamed out of the NBA recently. Yi Jianlian. A Chinese dude woulda dominated the NBA back then.

    For a guy that spends so much time posting on the Soccer forum I thought you would know a little bit more about the game, then again you think Zidane is the GOAT so... smh with a facepalm.

    Coming from someone who thinks Messi is as great as Diego and that the 70s World Champs would need proper nutrition/training to beat Getafe

    eh, sports evolve over time, "new brilliant" strategies, techniques, and training regimens become commonplace. it really doesn't make sense to compare a 1965 version of Wilt to a 2010 version of an NBA center (even though centers suck today).

    same applies for just about everything. Isaac Newton is considered one of the most brilliant men in history, but look at how his theories/equations have been expanded upon and improved. it would be unfair to time warp 1700 version of Newton into a 2014 quantum mechanics class and expect him to ace an exam on the spot.

    you have to take everything in context. if you want to compare Wilt to today's players, then you should also take into consideration either:

    a) how much better Wilt would be if he was born in 1990, and trained just as hard as today's players
    or
    b) how effective today's players would be if they were born in the 40's and only had access to those training techniques

    if you refuse to do that, your comparisons are moot, and all the greats of the past in anything: sports, science, literature, politics would be scrubs today. doubt thats accurate


    but this is one of the better troll threads in a while
