The NBA didn’t count blocks and steals back then so we don’t know what his official numbers were. On that day, however, the belief is that Wilt Chamberlain dropped 53 points, 32 rebounds, 14 assists, 24 blocks, and 11 steals in just a single game.
scores were higher in MJ's era than most of the last 20 years. From 2003-2015 scoring dropped a lot due to the introduction of zone defense (elimination of illegal defense). Kobe would've gotten 100 that night if his team could run isos all day like they did for MJ and those cats in the 80s and 90s.

Thanks for another great video, Jxmy! Jordan's 69 point game was the game that started my love of basketball. I was a bored 14 yr old on a weekend afternoon that was trying to find something to watch on tv. At that point I knew nothing about basketball. It just seemed like a really boring game in general. While flipping through channels the excitement of the commentators caught my attention. They were so excited about this Michael Jordan guy. Because of their excitement I had to see what the big deal was. I became so engrossed in the game that I hadn't realized I'd watched the rest of it. After that I was hooked. I was an instant Jordan and Bulls fan. I watched every Chicago Bulls game that I could find. It is so cool to know that my 1st game was a very historic one. Sorry about my rambling and thanks again Jxmy!
I’m glad that you were able to witness greatness in an era of basketball that was with the mindset that defense wins championships. The fans of today’s NBA have no idea how tough they played the game. When Jordan retired there are plenty of my friends that quit watching basketball. Today’s NBA is geared towards scoring and the rules reflect that. When you have a player that can just stand at the top of the key and go full steam ahead and either get fouled or have the lane open let’s you see how the game has changed
"In the modern nba. Who has the highest/best/most...." "Michael Jordan" "you didn't let me finish" "it's always Michael Jordan" "...yeah it's Michael Jordan"
@@Chevy-hw6lw At least I know before that the rules were different. Put one of those players from older nba in today and their stats would be lower. and if you put a modern player in before the rules changed, theirs would be higher (mostly). So I don't know what you're trying to say with delusions. Also "modern" being when the stats started being counted, not saying wilt wasn't good, he was just of a different era. You wouldn't compare the specs of a spitfire to an f16 would you. So let's not try to sound like a pompous dick with "delusions" alright.
Asrar Farooqui I believe the only stat missing from that game is blocks. In the beginning of the video he said it has to be a game that recorded all categories. I wonder if you have Wilt zeros for the categories not recorded, what would his score be.
The Man did You work it out? I was planing to work it out today but did not fint the time. Dang!!!! That is without all his blocks... . Now I know why the team is called Philadelphia 76ers ;)
Fun fact: If you take Wilts 100 point game and assume every stay that was not recorded at the time was as bad as it could be for Wilt, his game score would still be higher than all others. Meaning let’s assume he had NO blocks, NO steals, NO offensive rebounds, and TEN turnovers. He would still have a game score of 66.8, the current highest is 64.6 by MJ.
Everyone talking how Wilt was playing against 5'7 janitors 1. He was playing every game except for one time when he got ejected 2. He was playing against Kareem + blocked some of his sky hooks, Bill Russell and so on 3. He is the strongest and most athletic player to have ever existed, he beat the fastest football player in sprint discipline, lifted most weights in the gym according to Arnold noone was not even close to him in strenght 4. He was an absolute beast in game, broke a player's toe with a dunk, dislocated a shoulder with a block and is even said to have at times stopped himself from dunking due to fear of hurting his opponents Wilt would've without a doubt dominated any era he played in plus imagine the technology and knowledge we have now, in my opinion he is the best center WILT>Kareem> Hakeem/Shaq But we all know they can't match the pure strenght if the GOAT beetlejuice, height- 6 feet 11 foot, weight- at least a lot
Let’s not forget the average height for centers during Wilts career was 6’10”. He wasn’t just bullying little guys. He was utterly dominant during his career

This is without question the best hoops content maker there is. My dude you are insanely talented and your videos are so well made and entertaining. I appreciate your work!
i think people need to actually rewatch those games back then. I mean my god, defense was actually terrible, while at the same time, they were fucking slow.
@@Amzingred I would call Jimmy Butler great, so that’s a poor analogy. Also, defense was much better then than it is today. I suggest you go back and watch them. I’m old enough that I actually watched them live.
@Ramses Stafford Actually, Wilt could dunk from the FT line sports.stackexchange.com/questions/16974/could-wilt-chamberlain-dunk-from-the-free-throw-line But he was a bad FT shooter.
Well that does it for me. After seeing dozens of your videos, and learning so much about basketball and the NBA, I can say now that I understand how Michael Jordan was the best player ever.
jordan with two in both categories, no one else even close. go figure. love when advanced metrics just keep on confirming jordan as the greatest. amuses me to no end.
It must be incredibly discouraging to every MJ wannabe - it's an impossible task just about, for anyone to eclipse MJ. Given the dynamics of the game now and exposure from HS to college etc I cannot see anyone dominating like MJ did. In retrospect Kobe tried, but that wasn't his natural persona to be ruthless, for MJ it was in his personality. Its getting fucking tiring though to hear 'the next michael jordan'. I don't think a single player has just owned a sport so badly as MJ - nobody in recent memory is close.
KD just achieved a 50.4 game score (49|17|10) in Game 5 against the Bucks in the 2021 Semis. Didn't pass Chuck but he's the second player ever to get a 50+ game score in a playoff game. Pretty impressive stuff
It is impressive, but 2 weeks before that Damian Lillard scored 55 pts, 6 REB, 10 AST, 3 BLKS, 1 STL with only 1 TO on 70% shooting and 12 3PM on 70% from 3 plus 90% FT% AND carried his team to the second overtime only to lose by 7
i agree but i think they also take in consideration the time period back then and so do i..wilt definitely would be probably the top 5 spots at least..but does it really count? i mean of course it does for the history of the game, and its not his fault he was so much more dominant than everyone else..but his stats show how lopsided shit was..30pts/22 rebs career...50pts a game for a season..100 pts in a game..before his time indeed, but those stats need an asterisk next to them. thats why at the highest hes 3rd best all time behind mj and kareem
Listen. There is 4 letters why mj is the “goat”. E.S.P.N. ESPN wasn’t round when wilt played. All we have is some games,film,and stats. Wilt holds 71 records. (Not 72 anymore,Russ broke one) When espn started. All that was on was mj. Mj also played in a league where it was a bit laid back. In wilts era it wasn’t easy. I’m not saying Michel isn’t one of the greats but his greatness is exaggerated a bit. Plus after wilt was beat down and broken up,he play PROFESSIONAL VOLLEYBALL. Mf played another sport after he retired and his knees were fucked. He ran track in college. This man was a BEAST. The only thing that I will say is wilt wasn’t aggressive. He was afraid he would hurt people. Back to how great wilt is. He averaged MORE MINUTES IN A GAME THAN THERE IS MINUTES IN A GAME. He never sat out ONCE in two seasons(pretty sure but he did one season) His domance was through the roof. Y’all can shit on me all you want but you can’t debate mj or Lebron. You guys can debate wilt or Lebron.
I actually tried to do the game score based on recorded stats. Since a lot of the stats were not available I made some adjustments. Like all 25 rebounds counting as DREB. His stats were 100 points 36/63 FGA/FGM 28/42 FTA/FTM 25 TREB, 2 AST and 2 PF. Steals and blocks were not tracked back then. I can’t believe that he did not have a few of them. With all known variables plugged into the formula I came up with a game score of 80.
i would think Hakeem and his quadruple doubles would have been high. Or hell, his night of achieving 38 points, 17 rebounds, 12 blocks, 7 steals, and 6 assists. Or his 32 points, 25 rebounds, and 10 blocks game.
@@aidanb1129 uh...no. The "Game score" formula that this video is based off was created in the 2000s ;) The 1978 that you are talking about, is the fact that what the "game score" is based on, it can't tell what players did before 1978, because the specific stats that are needed weren't tracked before 1978.
So I decided to look those games up and have come up with some answers. Simple answer is: poor shooting percentages, high fouls and turnovers, and lastly 0 three-pointers. Your first example he achieved a 44.4 GmSc (Larry Bird was 44.8 for 100th spot at the time of the video) and went 48.3 FG%, 71.4 FT%, 5 PF, 4 TOV. Second example he achieved a 34.9 GaSc and went 55.6 FG%, 60.0 FT%, 4 PF, 5 TOV. A point to note, a 2-pointer will net you 1.7 points towards your GaSc, whereas a 3-pointer will net you 2.7 points. Those 2 games he went 0 from 0 at the 3 point line, whereas today 3's are far more prevalent. Also a miss for a 2 or a 3 will cost you 0.7 to your GaSc regardless of which one, so there's potential to earn more through hitting 3's than 2's as the punishment is the same for missing, yet a whole point extra in GaSc if you get it. Bonus fact: ORB are worth much more than DRB, and his 25 TRB game he went 6/19. Bonus bonus fact: steals are worth more than assists and blocks. Bonus bonus bonus fact: on the wiki for the formula it says it only applies from 1978 onwards, however the stats on the top 100 list only apply from the 83-84 season onwards. This doesn't affect Olajuwon though
When you factor in all of the allowed physicality, hand-checks, and illegal Ds in Jordan's era, you can't help but appreciate how much deserving he is of the GOAT status.
Damian Lillard now has the best game score for a playoff game and the 5th highest overall game score for his game 5 vs the Nuggets in the 2021 playoffs.
Just watched 6/7 of the '94 Rockets-Suns WCSF series, and can confirm this. He's the original freight train, unstoppable force in transition. Barkley's low post game was excellent too, he had the strength, the moves and he always found the open man when double-teamed.
CPGoat #3 and what’s the problem with free throws? Points are points. As long as they come efficiently, then they’re fine. There’s nothing wrong with scoring free throws
@@ryanelkadi3196 dont speak before u understand what I said. I was referring to his LACK of made fts. Thus the reason why I said EXCEPT his 100 pt game where he made all those fts.
lebron scoring 50 against the warriors in the finals is the best thing I've ever watched. It took 5 hall of famers in overtime to defeat that guy, for me mike is the goat, but I've never seen something like that. lebron is still the 2nd best, but that game was just insane.
@@lenekraturner87 Which means nothing when you have 3 other all-stars surrounding you. Think barkley wont win a ring with either KD or Steph as his teammates? Let alone BOTH of them? Chuck is an all time great for a reason.
Honestly at this point, whenever I watch one of these record videos, Im surprised when its not MJ. He definitely just looked at every record and thought "ima set that and no one will ever beat it"
Steve Griffey Average height back then was 6”5. Today its 6”6. And they were measured without shoes back then. Theres a bunch of hall of fame centers back then. Wilt did so much more than just stand under the rim.
It’s funny how with analytics , all the new #’s & new ways to continue to understand the game deeper & better than ever ...and Jordan still just keeps getting better the deeper we dig. No doubt The GOAT. Jordan didn’t just change the game of basketball, Jordan changed The Game of Life. Now you really know what Fly is.
Kobe’s 81 will always be the best for me. That shit was legendary to watch live, although being a diehard Lakers fan during that year was depressing for me 😂
When Kobe outscored the Mavericks by himself through 3 quarters. That was the best game I've seen Kobe play in my opinion. Even better than the 81. I think he had like 63 through 3 quarters and didn't even play the 4th. If that game was close and he had to play the 4th I believe he would of beaten his own mark of 81.
That's something people don't think about, yhey played to win, not to look good while winning or losing, the fact that Harden scored 60 and they still lost, shows that he didn't carry his team like they used to.
well, for the "stat maniacs" who says LBJ's stats are better than MJ's, thats because they don't put the negative stats on LBJ's stat line, but they put it on MJ's, now if you show this gamescore which add every stat line available including negative stats, MJ still owns LBJ.
There have been quadruple doubles in nba history but none are in the top 10. Judging by the looks of the list I'd say points are more important than other stats
Andrew Lee most times when players are hot in general throughout a game they could get it, for example lebrons 60 point game he couldve got it if he played more and alot of those games where a player scores alot in one quarter they could get 100 but teams never try to
*looks at game scores expecting MJ, Kobe, James harden* 1. Wilt Chamberlain 100 points 25 rebounds 18 blocks, 3 assists, 6 steals 2. Wilt Chamberlain 53 points 34 rebounds, 11 steals, 24 blocks, 14 assists 3. Wilt chamberlain 78 points 43 rebounds 12 blocks 5 steals 6 assists Yeah you get the point, steals and blocks aren't confirmed by the NBA but there's a lot of witnesses saying those are pretty accurate to what they saw
Wilt has more 60-point games than Jordan has 50-point games, and he has more 70-point games than every other NBA player in history put together. I think it's safe to say Wilt would have about 100 of the top 100 games, especially if you counted the pro games he played while in high school under a fake name when he was averaging more than 50 points per game and more than 70 points per game in the playoffs at 16 years old.
DantjeVanAskeBE * he needs to make a vid bout wilt and bill’s dominance if steals and blocks were recorded. Heard they had almost 30 blocks in a game each, multiple 20+ block games, and wilt may have had 2 quadruple doubles. Though I ain’t 100% wit all that cuz I never watched his game
After going through some of these videos I can't help but think David Robinson is criminally overlooked when we talk about the greatest players of the nba.
LOL! IKR!? I always thought MJ was simply the best I had ever watched. But when I dove into the numbers, I saw that even the numbers supported the eye test. I was like "WTF" !?
@@hersonbermudez476 Wilt didn't play in the modern NBA though. He would probably still break records today, but the physical advantages he had back then were enormous!
@@udgame1789 NBA teams were offering a 50 years old Wilt Chamberlain contracts to play like a starter in the NBA... so you can say he almost played in MJs Era.
@@udgame1789 you cant compare two different players based on how they would perform in a different era, what you can measure is just how dominant someone was in his own era. everything else is just speculation and has no scientific value. wilt would be no1, what you think about it is your decision, but thats just a fact.
The averages for his top 5 are 79 pts and 27.2 rbds on over 60% FG. If they counted blocks they'd have probably been around 10 bpg. Old Wilt matched up well against Artis Gilmore and Kareem, both of whom played well in the 80s including against Olajuwan. Prime Wilt in the 80s-90s? Who knows? Kareem had 40 against Ewing in 86.
The average pace in 1990 is not that far away from todays pace. It was slowing down from the absurd pace of the mid 80's but the peak of the slow / deadball era is the late 90's early 00's.
Just put in Wilt Chamberlain's stats from his 100 point game and got a game score of 76.8. I didn't add blocks, steals or TOs because they weren't recorded. I also assumed all of his rebounds were defensive. But most likely got a few offensive boards (offensive boards are worth more than defensive board). But im certain if they did record those stats back then it would most likely be a higher game score.
I'm a newer hoops fan but watching Luka drop 43 points 17 rebounds 13 assists 2 steals and a block on the Kawhi and PG led Clippers, probably the best defensive wing duo in the league, in the 2020 playoffs and get the buzzer beater 3 is one of the most incredible things I've ever seen. I've watched all your videos multiple times and they never get old, always something to take away.
Kevin Johnson triple OT game in 93. 21 of 22 from the line. 62 of 63 minutes. Mid range for months. Favorite performance of my childhood. He was a beast. Barkley was a King
In the 2 season stretch between 1987-89, MJ played 163 games with 13 of them being top 100 games (roughly 8%). This means that during this span if you had a match against MJ there was a good chance he would drop one of the greatest games of all time on your head.
@@dylanpatton8375 Considering he's a 20 year old and putting up numbers that most veterans could barely get. He's going to be atleast top 20 if not top 10
"Morphed into Prime Wilt Chamberlain" *Gets 6 Rebounds Son, you dun messed up there. lol I wouldn't be shocked if Wilt never played a game in his career with less than 10 (Unless he didn't play the whole game)
In addition to his other statistical accolades, Wilt almost always played the entirety of the game, with a career average of 45.8 minutes playtime (there are 48 minutes in a regular game). He never fouled out of game in his career, not even once. One season his average minutes per game was 48.5, longer than a normal game (because of OT minutes dragging up the average). Truly a freak athlete.
Looked it up. It happened 12 times in his career. Most of these were in his later years; the only two that occurred earlier than 1968 were games where he played less than 10 minutes.
Hearing that Bird game is the top 100 gatekeeper immediately shows you how much isn't accounted for on a stat sheet, because what BIrd did that day is probably in the realm of a top 15 or top 10 performance

But to be honest, the same goes for a lot of players. Like Michael Jordan's 48 in 3 quarters, Klay's 60 in 3 quarters etc. But yeah it'd be amazing.
people say that if he had played the 4th quarter he would have scored way more but he must have been really fatigued after cranking that many shots. people don’t realise that these guys are still humans even though it may not seem like it lol.
@@thepeacekeeper2338 i was thinking but you said klay..see i forget about 60 in 3 quarters..i was thinking id like to see the highest quarter rating..i know the rest of the stats probably werent so impressive..but 37 pts shooting perfect from the field???

Thanks for another great video, Jxmy! Jordan's 69 point game was the game that started my love of basketball. I was a bored 14 yr old on a weekend afternoon that was trying to find something to watch on tv. At that point I knew nothing about basketball. It just seemed like a really boring game in general. While flipping through channels the excitement of the commentators caught my attention. They were so excited about this Michael Jordan guy. Because of their excitement I had to see what the big deal was. I became so engrossed in the game that I hadn't realized I'd watched the rest of it. After that I was hooked. I was an instant Jordan and Bulls fan. I watched every Chicago Bulls game that I could find. It is so cool to know that my 1st game was a very historic one. Sorry about my rambling and thanks again Jxmy!
I’m glad that you were able to witness greatness in an era of basketball that was with the mindset that defense wins championships. The fans of today’s NBA have no idea how tough they played the game. When Jordan retired there are plenty of my friends that quit watching basketball. Today’s NBA is geared towards scoring and the rules reflect that. When you have a player that can just stand at the top of the key and go full steam ahead and either get fouled or have the lane open let’s you see how the game has changed
They found a new way of ranking players and MJ gets his top spot. What a player
This game score thing came out in the mid 2000s but yeah.

“Modern “ nba. Yeah you better put that in there, wouldn’t want the truth about Wilt being the best ever to cover your delusions.
@@Chevy-hw6lw At least I know before that the rules were different. Put one of those players from older nba in today and their stats would be lower. and if you put a modern player in before the rules changed, theirs would be higher (mostly). So I don't know what you're trying to say with delusions. Also "modern" being when the stats started being counted, not saying wilt wasn't good, he was just of a different era. You wouldn't compare the specs of a spitfire to an f16 would you. So let's not try to sound like a pompous dick with "delusions" alright.
Imagine Wilt Chamberlain 100 points being turned into game score
it would have been like 100 pt 26rb 5 assist 4 steals 6 blocks on 65 percent shooting
Asrar Farooqui I believe the only stat missing from that game is blocks. In the beginning of the video he said it has to be a game that recorded all categories. I wonder if you have Wilt zeros for the categories not recorded, what would his score be.
@@Lance1Woods blocks, steals, turnovers and offensive vs defensive rebounds all missing. But his 100 point game works out to about 76.
The Man did You work it out? I was planing to work it out today but did not fint the time. Dang!!!! That is without all his blocks... . Now I know why the team is called Philadelphia 76ers ;)
DahWordSmith he had his 100 point game on the warriors btw
Fun fact: If you take Wilts 100 point game and assume every stay that was not recorded at the time was as bad as it could be for Wilt, his game score would still be higher than all others. Meaning let’s assume he had NO blocks, NO steals, NO offensive rebounds, and TEN turnovers. He would still have a game score of 66.8, the current highest is 64.6 by MJ.
Apparently no one wanted to hear that.
wilt is a fraud and his numbers dont count

Everyone talking how Wilt was playing against 5'7 janitors
1. He was playing every game except for one time when he got ejected
2. He was playing against Kareem + blocked some of his sky hooks, Bill Russell and so on
3. He is the strongest and most athletic player to have ever existed, he beat the fastest football player in sprint discipline, lifted most weights in the gym according to Arnold noone was not even close to him in strenght
4. He was an absolute beast in game, broke a player's toe with a dunk, dislocated a shoulder with a block and is even said to have at times stopped himself from dunking due to fear of hurting his opponents
Wilt would've without a doubt dominated any era he played in plus imagine the technology and knowledge we have now, in my opinion he is the best center
WILT>Kareem> Hakeem/Shaq
But we all know they can't match the pure strenght if the GOAT beetlejuice, height- 6 feet 11 foot, weight- at least a lot
I agree thank for writing this out
Underrated
Let’s not forget the average height for centers during Wilts career was 6’10”. He wasn’t just bullying little guys. He was utterly dominant during his career
Wilt overrated
And yet he was psyched out by 2 baskets from Willis Reed in the first two minutes of a Game 7?

The Mad Zookeeper wilt would be bette r
You should check to see who has the highest game score where it really matters the most. (That’s the NBA finals in case you couldn’t figure it out)
It must be incredibly discouraging to every MJ wannabe - it's an impossible task just about, for anyone to eclipse MJ.
Given the dynamics of the game now and exposure from HS to college etc I cannot see anyone dominating like MJ did.
In retrospect Kobe tried, but that wasn't his natural persona to be ruthless, for MJ it was in his personality.
Its getting fucking tiring though to hear 'the next michael jordan'.
I don't think a single player has just owned a sport so badly as MJ - nobody in recent memory is close.
@@finngrant234 wayne gretzky comes to mind. but aside form those two, i don't think it's really happened.
Nick Wright would still disagree
KD just achieved a 50.4 game score (49|17|10) in Game 5 against the Bucks in the 2021 Semis. Didn't pass Chuck but he's the second player ever to get a 50+ game score in a playoff game. Pretty impressive stuff
hes the third all time (since game score) lillard is first and chuck is 2nd
It is impressive, but 2 weeks before that Damian Lillard scored 55 pts, 6 REB, 10 AST, 3 BLKS, 1 STL with only 1 TO on 70% shooting and 12 3PM on 70% from 3 plus 90% FT% AND carried his team to the second overtime only to lose by 7
Imagine if they recorded this stuff and blocks and steals in Wilts prime....
LegitPlays exactly
i agree but i think they also take in consideration the time period back then and so do i..wilt definitely would be probably the top 5 spots at least..but does it really count? i mean of course it does for the history of the game, and its not his fault he was so much more dominant than everyone else..but his stats show how lopsided shit was..30pts/22 rebs career...50pts a game for a season..100 pts in a game..before his time indeed, but those stats need an asterisk next to them. thats why at the highest hes 3rd best all time behind mj and kareem
@@gdirty7380 why do they need an asterisk? You didn't provide an answer for that
Listen. There is 4 letters why mj is the “goat”. E.S.P.N. ESPN wasn’t round when wilt played. All we have is some games,film,and stats. Wilt holds 71 records. (Not 72 anymore,Russ broke one) When espn started. All that was on was mj. Mj also played in a league where it was a bit laid back. In wilts era it wasn’t easy. I’m not saying Michel isn’t one of the greats but his greatness is exaggerated a bit. Plus after wilt was beat down and broken up,he play PROFESSIONAL VOLLEYBALL. Mf played another sport after he retired and his knees were fucked. He ran track in college. This man was a BEAST. The only thing that I will say is wilt wasn’t aggressive. He was afraid he would hurt people. Back to how great wilt is. He averaged MORE MINUTES IN A GAME THAN THERE IS MINUTES IN A GAME. He never sat out ONCE in two seasons(pretty sure but he did one season) His domance was through the roof. Y’all can shit on me all you want but you can’t debate mj or Lebron. You guys can debate wilt or Lebron.
I actually tried to do the game score based on recorded stats. Since a lot of the stats were not available I made some adjustments. Like all 25 rebounds counting as DREB. His stats were 100 points 36/63 FGA/FGM 28/42 FTA/FTM 25 TREB, 2 AST and 2 PF. Steals and blocks were not tracked back then. I can’t believe that he did not have a few of them. With all known variables plugged into the formula I came up with a game score of 80.
i would think Hakeem and his quadruple doubles would have been high. Or hell, his night of achieving 38 points, 17 rebounds, 12 blocks, 7 steals, and 6 assists.
Or his 32 points, 25 rebounds, and 10 blocks game.
Agreed. Something wrong with the formula if those games didn’t crack the top 10.
@@paulshriver2404 sometimes i feel a lot of the people that created such formulas was just to be whatever formula would make MJ look superior
Amzingred this was made in 1978 before anyone knew who Michael even was
@@aidanb1129 uh...no. The "Game score" formula that this video is based off was created in the 2000s ;) The 1978 that you are talking about, is the fact that what the "game score" is based on, it can't tell what players did before 1978, because the specific stats that are needed weren't tracked before 1978.
So I decided to look those games up and have come up with some answers. Simple answer is: poor shooting percentages, high fouls and turnovers, and lastly 0 three-pointers.
Your first example he achieved a 44.4 GmSc (Larry Bird was 44.8 for 100th spot at the time of the video) and went 48.3 FG%, 71.4 FT%, 5 PF, 4 TOV. Second example he achieved a 34.9 GaSc and went 55.6 FG%, 60.0 FT%, 4 PF, 5 TOV.
A point to note, a 2-pointer will net you 1.7 points towards your GaSc, whereas a 3-pointer will net you 2.7 points. Those 2 games he went 0 from 0 at the 3 point line, whereas today 3's are far more prevalent. Also a miss for a 2 or a 3 will cost you 0.7 to your GaSc regardless of which one, so there's potential to earn more through hitting 3's than 2's as the punishment is the same for missing, yet a whole point extra in GaSc if you get it.
Bonus fact: ORB are worth much more than DRB, and his 25 TRB game he went 6/19.
Bonus bonus fact: steals are worth more than assists and blocks.
Bonus bonus bonus fact: on the wiki for the formula it says it only applies from 1978 onwards, however the stats on the top 100 list only apply from the 83-84 season onwards. This doesn't affect Olajuwon though
MJ only got it because he scored 69. If he scored 70, he wouldn’t have gotten it. Bias

When you factor in all of the allowed physicality, hand-checks, and illegal Ds in Jordan's era, you can't help but appreciate how much deserving he is of the GOAT status.
The illegal defense rule was actually helping MJ quite a lot. Not having to play against help defense is generally a good thing for a player like him.

When Kobe outscored the Mavericks by himself through 3 quarters. That was the best game I've seen Kobe play in my opinion. Even better than the 81. I think he had like 63 through 3 quarters and didn't even play the 4th. If that game was close and he had to play the 4th I believe he would of beaten his own mark of 81.
MJ & Barkley were amazing analytically before analytics were a thing imagine if they played in an analytics heavy era. Godlike tbh.
That's something people don't think about, yhey played to win, not to look good while winning or losing, the fact that Harden scored 60 and they still lost, shows that he didn't carry his team like they used to.
well, for the "stat maniacs" who says LBJ's stats are better than MJ's, thats because they don't put the negative stats on LBJ's stat line, but they put it on MJ's, now if you show this gamescore which add every stat line available including negative stats, MJ still owns LBJ.

The averages for his top 5 are 79 pts and 27.2 rbds on over 60% FG. If they counted blocks they'd have probably been around 10 bpg. Old Wilt matched up well against Artis Gilmore and Kareem, both of whom played well in the 80s including against Olajuwan. Prime Wilt in the 80s-90s? Who knows? Kareem had 40 against Ewing in 86.
Even with the bloated scoring numbers in today's era, Kobe and MJ still top two which is impressive
The average pace in 1990 is not that far away from todays pace. It was slowing down from the absurd pace of the mid 80's but the peak of the slow / deadball era is the late 90's early 00's.
1st place: 69 points.
NICE
Just put in Wilt Chamberlain's stats from his 100 point game and got a game score of 76.8.
I didn't add blocks, steals or TOs because they weren't recorded. I also assumed all of his rebounds were defensive. But most likely got a few offensive boards (offensive boards are worth more than defensive board).
But im certain if they did record those stats back then it would most likely be a higher game score.
If it wasn't less than 1979 it would count and be unbeatable but, it's not :l
pft
Yet Sir Charles doesn’t have a ring. That sucks.
Why? Do you only base your judgement of skill on rings? Charles a HOFer and he didn't need a ring. He let his stats and the eye test do the speaking.
I'm a newer hoops fan but watching Luka drop 43 points 17 rebounds 13 assists 2 steals and a block on the Kawhi and PG led Clippers, probably the best defensive wing duo in the league, in the 2020 playoffs and get the buzzer beater 3 is one of the most incredible things I've ever seen. I've watched all your videos multiple times and they never get old, always something to take away.
Sir Charles is so underrated cuz he didn't get a ring
Kevin Johnson triple OT game in 93. 21 of 22 from the line. 62 of 63 minutes. Mid range for months. Favorite performance of my childhood. He was a beast. Barkley was a King
Imagine if wilts stats were tracked for this 🤯🤯
leo hennessy he could fill out the top 10 if they counted blocks and steals
There was one game when according to Sixers stat keeper Harvey Pollack, he had 53p/32r/21a/24b/11s on 83% fg shooting, good for a game score of 90.
Tj Slater he’d easily have the greatest. He’d also probably have 5 top 10

Wilt played in a 2nd weakest NBA decade (2nd weakest to 1970's)
In the 2 season stretch between 1987-89, MJ played 163 games with 13 of them being top 100 games (roughly 8%). This means that during this span if you had a match against MJ there was a good chance he would drop one of the greatest games of all time on your head.
Wilt chamberlain looking like “ so y’all finna forget I scored 100?”
Or grab 55 rebounds
Or block 26 shots
Lionel Avila yes but actually no
The stat was invented too late
The opposing players ADMITTED to intentionally fouling him to get him to the line more and stop the clock. That game was a hoax!
Luka’s name will be on this list soon enough.
I doubt it
@@dylanpatton8375 Considering he's a 20 year old and putting up numbers that most veterans could barely get. He's going to be atleast top 20 if not top 10
@@dylanpatton8375 bro he arguably might be on the top 150 already with like three of his games. You even know who Luka doncic is?
Dylan Patton do you know who who luka doncic is? He is one of the best Mavericks ever and only 20!
Shiwo if he continues to play like he is right now
It is crazy how disrespected Sir Charles gets just because he didn't win a championship
If anyone is wondering, Luka Doncic’s 73 points is second place with 64.0.
MJ is just in a world of his own🤣🤣🤣
"Morphed into Prime Wilt Chamberlain"
*Gets 6 Rebounds
Son, you dun messed up there. lol I wouldn't be shocked if Wilt never played a game in his career with less than 10 (Unless he didn't play the whole game)
I laughed when he said prime wilt, wilt probably averaged a triple double for his whole career in points, rebounds, and blocks
In addition to his other statistical accolades, Wilt almost always played the entirety of the game, with a career average of 45.8 minutes playtime (there are 48 minutes in a regular game). He never fouled out of game in his career, not even once. One season his average minutes per game was 48.5, longer than a normal game (because of OT minutes dragging up the average). Truly a freak athlete.
@@eamonnbeahan5611 His MPG records are some of his most impressive.
Looked it up. It happened 12 times in his career. Most of these were in his later years; the only two that occurred earlier than 1968 were games where he played less than 10 minutes.
Just to clear this up the rockets didn't lose when James Harden had his 60 point triple double
Also I am surprised Harden's triple double against the Knicks in 16-17 wasn't in the top 10 (53pts 17ast 16reb).

Yes they did
Xavier Mckinney they won and harden made a clutch and1 3 at the end
Hearing that Bird game is the top 100 gatekeeper immediately shows you how much isn't accounted for on a stat sheet, because what BIrd did that day is probably in the realm of a top 15 or top 10 performance
6:05 The rockets still lost. Nope they didn't they won by 7, 114 to 107
1: Wilt’s 100 point game
2: Kobe’s 81 point game
3: David Robinson’s quadruple double
Top 3 in my opinion
