Online Exhibit      Wilt Chamberlain's 100 point game — March 2, 1962 at Hershey, PA  \n   \n\n  Introduction\n\nThe Game\n\nChamberlain bio\n\nThe Boxscore\n\nQuotebook\n\nWho's Joe Ruklick?\n\nChamberlain stats \n\nWarriors in the Hall\n\nWilt's Hall Call\n\nHall of Fame website  \n \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n\n \n Warriors \nvs. Knicks\nMar. 2, 1962\n \n  \n\nOn March 2, 1962, the weather was cold and slushy — a stay-at-home winter Friday night. Neither the Philadelphia Warriors or the New York Knicks were especially thrilled with a bus ride to Hershey, PA for a meaningless NBA game. The season was almost over, and the outcome would have no effect on the standings. \n\nThat night, however, Wilton Norman Chamberlain would score 100 points, a record that celebrates its 40th anniversary this month, and one that hasn't been touched. The reason? Chamberlain also owns the second and third highest scoring marks in league history at 78 and 73 points twice. David Thompson also scored 78 points in the 1978 scoring race against George Gervin. \n\nFrom the opening tap, the Warriors assumed command over the last place and outmanned Knicks. Philadelphia piled up a 42-26 advantage by the end of the first period. Chamberlai, who was in his third NBA season, scored 23 of his teams 42 points. New York's regular center, 6-foot-10 Phil Jordon, was sidelined due to injury, and his replacement, Darrall Imhoff, had a difficult time guarding Chamberlain and eventually fouled out. He was one of five New York players to foul out. (see boxscore)\n\nBy halftime, many of Chamberlain's teammates knew something special was in the air (23 first quarter points, 18 second quarter points). They kept feeding him for an assortment of thunderous dunks, finger rolls, a few jumpers and his favorite shot, the one-handed bank shot off the glass.\n\nDuring the third quarter, Chamberlain made 10 baskets and a perfect 8-for-8 from the free throw line. At the start of the fourth quarter he popped in three quick baskets to reach 75 points. Fans in the arena began a constant chant, "Give it to Wilt! Give it to Wilt."\n\nWith five minutes remaining, Chamberlain had 89 points. He scored five points quickly; points 93 and 94 on a 12-foot bank shot. Points 95 and 96 came on a lob pass from Rodgers. Points 97 and 98 came on an easy layup feed from York Larese. Nearing the century mark, Chamberlain stole New York's inbound pass but his shot went in and spun out. The chaotic last minute went like this:\n\nChamberlain missed a shot. \nTeammate Ted Luckenbill rebounded and fed Chamberlain who missed again. \nLuckenbill grabbed the rebound again and passed to Joe Rutlick. \nRutlick fed Chamberlain underneath the basket. \nChamberlain dunked home points 99 and 100. \nGame Not Over!\nThe 100 point night never ended officially. The final 46 seconds weren't played, because as soon as Chamberlain scored 100, fans stormed the court and no one had interest in continuing. Joe Rutlick claims that the game did end officially and that he missed two free throws during the last 46 seconds, and the boxscore confirms Rutlick's statement. \n\n"It would have been impossible to score this many points if my teammates hadn't kept feeding me, especially Guy," Chamberlain said after the game. \n\nFinal: Philadelphia 169 — New York 147\n\n"A lot of people asked me if it was pre-planned," Chamberlain said. "No, it wasn't. We didn't have a team meeting or anything to purposely go out and doing something like this. It just happened as the game progressed."\n  Campbell's Call \nThe radio by-by-play was done that night by Bill Campbell, a veteran broadcaster. Twenty-five years after the game Campbell told the Philadelphia Daily News, "This might sound strange, but I never had that game in my list of top personal memories. In all honesty, I was more excited the night I did the game when Joe Fulks scored 63. He was

It's silly to make such comparisons anyway. If you argue that Wilt Chamberlain was the best, I'd argue that the game wasn't as developed and the league was less athletic. Also, he commonly played against much smaller centers, including Bill Russell who was only 6-9 and about 215 lbs!\n\nThe game is just different in every era.  But, if I'm going to make an argument about why I think Jordan may be the best, I suppose I'd have to start with his 6 championship rings in 8 or so years during the 90s.  Of course, you'll say something like without Pippen and Phil Jackson he never won a title, in which case i'll list his incredible stats over the years and point out that he was typically a better-than-fifty percent shooter from the field to go along with his million ppg, but then you'll point out how Chamberlain averaged over 50 ppg during one season alone!\n\nThere's really no point because it's all about context.  Jordan did things that no one else had done and he revolutionized the game.  Is he the greatest? It's an irrelevant discussion that people tend to take overboard in my opinion.

The Big O had 1896 pts that season, plus 633 assists.  Sorry, but Wilt the Stilt had more assists that year, with 702.  Hell, Lenny Wilkens had more assists too, with 679 that year, AND he's a guard as well!  And... THREE guards had more points than Oscar that season... Dave Bing, Earl Monroe, and Hal Greer.

IMO there's no definite answer for this. You can't compare Wilt Chamberlain and Michael Jordan. Wilt lived in another era in NBA basketball (competition was not as intense as it is today, factors are totally different since 7-footers like him were hard to come by back then, etc.).

ok...I think that kobes 81 is a better accomplishment. In wilts day he was the only person that was like 7 feet tall, there was no 3 seconds and no shot clock. Those are all factors. In the era that we are in right now there are factors like 24 seconds to shoot the ball and u can't stay in the lane for more than 3 seconds, and kobe is no where near 7 feet tall and back in wilts day he was 8 feet tall. Kobes 81 is a bigger accomplishment in my book
