Good.......I'm glad you're in agreement


Only somewhat though.

It still doesn't change in any way what I said in #316

Based upon the data I've acquired from the sources I've already mentioned on this forum.

Your sources don't have the full numbers for all players before 1974. It's silly to be "with 100% certainty" sure when you have such a fragmentary data. Your sources are very incomplete and far from 100% credibility.

Smh well 70sFan, after all I've posted on this forum, past & present, if you still don't deem my source 100% legitimate, even with your extensive archival footage you've recently acquired from the source that I know you've acquired it from, then, I'm sorry to say, maybe there's no future hope for someone like you.

I've said this then & will repeat it here & now:

All my unofficial blocked shot data that I choose to post on either this forum, on twitter & on Quora, is with 100% honesty & accuracy.

But NBA don't know who lead the league in blocks either... They don't have all seasons from the 1960s on the tape and they don't have hidden stats. Even if they had all the stats for Wilt (they don't), it means nothing because we'd have to know block numbers from Walter Dukes and Gene Wiley as well.

1. "But NBA don't know who lead the league in blocks either" Well, I believe they do, but don't wish to publicly disclose it.
2. "They don't have all seasons from the 1960s on the tape and they don't have hidden stats" Wholeheartedly disagree
3. "Even if they had all the stats for Wilt (they don't)" Well, actually, yes, they certainly do have all the stats for Wilt.
4. "It means nothing because we'd have to know block numbers from Walter Dukes and Gene Wiley as well"
Well 70sFan, for your information, I have block numbers from Walter Dukes & Gene Wiley; that is, if you're interested.

So you imply that the league has all games on the tape from all 1960s seasons? You are not the only one who speaked with people from the NBA. Prove me wrong.

Also, please post block numbers for Walter Dukes and Gene Wiley.

1. "So you imply that the league has all games on the tape from all 1960s seasons? Back til about the mid '50s, actually.

You are not the only one who speaked with people from the NBA.
I don't believe I am the only one, however, at this point I'm convinced I do have more data than most, including, I'm sorry to say, you, are either willing and/or able to believe.

Prove me wrong." I already have, by the unofficial data I've posted on here several times.
If you of all people still haven't determined that by now, then you must've been residing in some type of cave the last few years.


2. Also, please post block numbers for Walter Dukes and Gene Wiley. If you insist:

Dukes career RS numbers

between 5.6-5.65bpg(26.3mpg)

Wiley career RS numbers

between 5.8-5.85bpg(18.9mpg)

So you don't know the exact numbers for them, which means they don't have all stats. From how many games do you have block numbers in this case?

"So you don't know the exact numbers for them, which means they don't have all stats. From how many games do you have block numbers in this case?"

First of all 70sFan, I only gave you the above numbers because I thought you'd be satisfied with that.

Looks like I'm wrong here.

I could give you the seasonal data for both players if that's what you're searching for, vs career.

Second of all, they DO have all the stats, I've just only inquired primarily about seasonal data from this affiliate, vs game-by-game.
I have certain block totals for games from the 2 of them, but mostly career & seasonal numbers.

It's not that I'm uninterested in game-by-game data for the 2 of them vs someone like Wilt & Russell; I absolutely aim,
particularly Wiley, because of the shot-blocking he did in the limited minutes.


For example: I do know that Wiley's highest bpg season was his rookie season.
I would wholeheartedly love to obtain a game-by-game block total for all his games, instead of merely a subset,
but that might take somewhat longer than I'd like, yet at this point I do know it's completely possible.

That's fascinating. So you know block numbers for all teams of the 1960? If so, would you like to post team numbers?

I want to apologize for my rude tone, but I am very sceptic about anything like that due to my own experience. I could be wrong, maybe the league has all games from all seasons... which makes it even worse given they give us nothing.

I do wish the nba would release all the footage and info they have but the most annoying thing about Wilt is all the extra myths and ridiculous takes people have about him rather than letting his game speak for itself

I agree, this doesn't help Wilt's reputation at all. His game is good enough to speak for itself.

We are nerds. We want minute by minute tracking of every number ever tracked and some that never have been but could have been for every player that ever played including the original Celtics and the Washington Generals. :tooth

To my understanding, I was told the earliest season of complete full games(or close to it)would be Mikan's final NBA season.

Smh, many of us are.

But I DO have additional things to motivate me outside of this on a daily basis.
Nonetheless, this is at, or near, the top of my daily list.

Smh, so true FlyingScotsman, I 100% feel where you're coming from & even more so, BEFORE I discovered what I have the last 2 years.
But because of folks like me & others, on this forum & elsewhere, the actual truth about Wilt & others from this era is slowly, but surely, being unearthed.

There's additional similar data from this era, for example, that one might think is 100% accurate, but upon further discovery, is filled with numerous discrepancies.

Another thing every Wilt admirer everywhere must know if they wish to obtain complete Wilt Chamberlain NBA footage:

The NBA Archives/Entertainment affiliate that obtained the footage told me privately that the only avenue of obtaining it is through knowing Wilt's family members personally; the affiliate would obviously know, he fought tooth, nail, & floorboard convincing them to release the footage to him.

Something like turnovers per game for Wilt and Russell would be much appreciated.

By the way, I just got message yesterday from another man who collaborates with the NBA and he said the league doesn't have full 1960s seasons on the tape, or even close to it. It seems we have to wait until they release something.

Sorry 70sFan, I don't have data for either one; however, for the time being I would suggest checking the www.whatifsports.com
website, as they would have estimated unofficial turnover data for both.

Well, I don't know who that man is, but I'm certain I know who he isn't.

And I won't say publicly whom I believe it to be, either.

Did he say anything about film and/or DVD?

How exactly did the conversation proceed anyway, at least according to your personal recollection?
