where's that one story where some 6'10" 240 center's coach told him to really get up in Wilt's business. Just play him physical and try and wear him down.

He thought he was doing well and wearing down Wilt until Wilt finally just picked up the 240 pound dude and moved him out of the way -- with one arm.

One one hand I feel you bring up an excellent point and agree 100%.
On the other hand I say athleticism is important but may be overrated. Bruce Jenner was one the best athletes in my lifetime. My guess is he would be a horse shit NBA player.

Bruce Jenner also wasn't 7'1" with a 7'8" wingspan

Which ‘experts’?

Well, I'm using the term "experts" loosely...

The most recent ESPN top 10 ranking that came out yesterday or the day before had Wilt at 6.

Whatever that's worth.

(Edit: sorry didn't see others responded to this already....posting and golfing is hard)

Are you in Illinois? If so, where the fuck have you been golfing this morning? Where ever, good for you!
We've had some BAD weather in the city.

Haha we started EARLY....then got heavy rain for a while so I went to pick up stuff from my daughters school and home for a bit....now we are back out here for an afternoon 18.

...but yes a bad band of storms came thru here...the morning stuff was a little north. I could see on the radar the Chicago was getting slammed for a while.

he’d probably be horse shit because he wasn’t a basketball player

don’t you think his athleticism helped him in the sports in which he participated?

i mean, i doubt Bo Jackson was a phenomenal swimmer, even though he excelled at football and baseball

Absolutely I feel Jenner's athleticism helped him in the sports in which he participated. Just as I believe it helps most if not all professional athletes - in the sports in which they participate.
The point I was trying to make (poorly) is exactly what you pointed out. That being a great athlete in one sport doesn't necessarily translate to being a great athlete in another.
Anyways, I'm having a difficult time explaining myself and I am not disagreeing with you - so let's please move along.........

Man, I had a Bruce Jenner action figure when I was a kid.
If I still had it, I guess I could swap the head with a Barbie head

Jordan scores no more than 10-12 on me. I foul his ass six consecutive times outside the paint. Then I talk Jason Bennett level shit. I leave the game with an assist and two points I got on a flop and friendly bounces.

Gutter with the nonchalant 4 phone humblebrag.

In other words, you’re Gerald Wilkins.

Ha!
