Wilt Chamberlain, though. The NBA actually had to institute rule changes such as prohibiting throwing the ball over the backboard on inbounds plays because Chamberlain was too dominant and could not be stopped. Gretzky was awesome, no doubt, but Chamberlain should have been the guy IMO posed in the original question instead.
