Message: [QUOTE="br801, post: 209953, member: 932"] I'm not sure what point you're trying to make. For the record, he stopped scoring as much because he was playing on more offensively talented teams and made a conscious effort to shoot less. His decreased scoring had nothing to do with other players "catching up with him." The long list of HoF big men he competed against is quite interesting. Remember, there were less than half the number of teams then, so Wilt was facing one of these guys most nights. You should look closely at some of the numbers these guys put up to get a sense of the quality of Wilt's competition. [/QUOTE]
