Wilt Chamberlain

Career playoff stats: 22.5 PPG, 24.5 RPG, 4.2 APG

Accolades: 2 NBA titles, 1 Finals MVP, 4 reg. season MVPs


Wilt Chamberlain is the reason I said Shaq was "possibly" the most dominant player of all time. Chamberlain's dominance is widely acknowledged, and as time passes he seems more and more like a mythical figure. In the 1961-62 regular season, he averaged 50.4 points and 25.7 rebounds. Simply unreal.

Had Wilt accomplished more in the postseason, he would be closer to No. 1. It seems crazy to expect more from a player who averaged 22 and 25, but that's how it goes when you're the most dominant.
