1964 NBA Finals 20 minutes of NEVER-before-seen highlights. PRIME Wilt Chamberlain's Warriors vs Bill Russell's Celtics!

Deandre is a tall lanky super athlete who can average 13 pts/game with a complete lack of offensive skill. Cynicism aside, that's pretty impressive.

My whole point is if you gave a tall super athlete like Deandre an offensive repertoire you'd get something like Wilt. But yeah, of course they are totally different.

But also realize Wilt has inflated rebound numbers that are literally not possible in today's game due to pace and shot accuracy (you do realize there were players in his era that were virtually his equal in rebounding, right?). It's not that absurd of a comparison when you actually watch what Deandre is capable of just based on pure athleticism. The dude sucks at basketball and yet is a league leading rebounder every year while scoring double digits every game. He plays basketball like he's dunking on a nerf hoop. You know who else was capable of that? Wilt. Sure, wilt was a better athlete, no one is arguing that, but think outside the box a little and realize that Deandre with an offensive game would mimic the difficulties of dealing with Wilt.
