It's interesting, Wilt seems ranked too low IMO on most of those lists you see.

Here is another Warriors center who is way under-appreciated. One of only eight players with at least 3 NBA scoring titles and 3 All-NBA 1st team selections.

As I recall he retired before he reached 30, what happened there?

Yeah, I am looking for a nice Johnston. One day a tiny percentage of these new boom collectors will want to look back.

I spent the first of the year trimming my upper 70s to bring these two grail cards into the Holy Trinity (joining Wilt). I'm dead broke but it had to be done.

Nice cards and great choices. Mikan was as dominant as any player ever was in the game. And Russell has more rings than fingers.

I agree. He was the greatest offensive threat in history.

PPG 30.1 (#2 all time)

RPG 22.9 (#1 all time)

ASTPG 4.4

Career Triple-Doubles 78 (#6 all time and #1 among centers)
