    In my opinion, players are stronger, faster, and 5times more athletic. Could Wilt average 50pts in one season in today's game? Could Oscar get as many triple-doubles against today's players? Or Russell win 11 rings like he did back then? I don't think so, even minus the rule changes. Not to say they wouldn't be great in today's game, because they'd prolly still be superstars. But to say Wilt would dominate anything remotley close to how he did against somebody like, say Shaq, is hogwash. Is there anybody who feels like the old school players could dominate today's game as well they did in their era?

    Todays players would dominate and I doubt Wilt would even average 30+ pts per game.
