In 1962, Wilt Chamberlain missed eight minutes the entire goddamn SEASON and that was because he got ejected one time. He was so worn out by the workload he averaged 50 points and 25 rebounds per game while fucking 33% of the people he met that year. Load management my ass.
@Super70sSports In high school he ran the 1/4 mile in 0:49 and the 1/2 mile in 1:58
@Super70sSports There were 9 teams in the NBA then. Only one in the west.
@Super70sSports Probably the best individual season in basketball history
@Super70sSports It’s the milk. These kids today don’t drink milk anymore and look what’s happened to ‘em.
@Super70sSports The man was a decathlete after all.
@Super70sSports Because of overtime, he averaged more minutes per game than minutes in a game.
@Super70sSports He also did wearing Chuck Taylor’s, which are the equivalent of playing basketball in sandals and wreak havoc on your legs.
@Super70sSports Forget back-to-backs. At one point Philadelphia played FIVE straight days. Not only did Wilt play every minute of all of them, he averaged 55 points and 25 rebounds.
