[QUOTE="oddo033, post: 209854, member: 192"] Here is a list of HOF Centers that Wilt competed against in his career. [SIZE=12px][FONT=Helvetica][COLOR=#333333]Bill Russell 6’9″, 220 1956-1969 Kareem Abdul Jabbar 7’2″,225 1969-1989 Nate Thurmond 6’11″ 240 1963-1974 (Wilts Teammate for a number of years) Walt Bellamy 6’11″ 225 1961-1974 Bob Petit 6’9″ 230 1954-1965 Dave Cowens 6’9″ 230 1970-1983 Bob Lanier 6’11 265 1970-1984 Spencer Haywood 6’9″ 230 1969-1983 Jerry Lucas 6’8″ 245 (C-) 1962-1974 Elvin Hayes 6’9′ 240 (C-) 1968-1984 Wes Unseld 6’7″ 245 1968-1981 Willis Reed 6’9″ 240 1964-1974[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE] [FONT=Helvetica][COLOR=#333333][SIZE=12px][/SIZE][/COLOR][/FONT] Here are Wilts career Stats. He had the most dominating 6 year period in the history of the game. With that being said He never averaged 30 PPG after '66. As the size of the players starting catching up with him, his points went down. Notice that out of these HOF Centers only Russell, Bellamy, Petit, Lucas, and Reed (first 2 years. Not yet in his prime) were around for his best seasons. Only Bellamy was over 6'9". (Thurmond was his teammate during this time.) Wilt was in great physical condition and played nearly every minute. He also took a ton of shots. in his best season in '62 he shot 50% from the field. His career % didn't go up till the end of his career when he severely limited the amount of shots he was taking.
