This is a podcast episode featuring Clyde Frazier, a former NBA player and current commentator, and Josh Jackson and Jalen Brunson, the hosts. In this episode, Clyde Frazier talks about his favorite NBA players and shares his insights on what it takes to win a championship.
Here are the key points:
• Clyde Frazier believes Wilt Chamberlain is the GOAT (greatest of all time) because of his incredible stats, including averaging 50 points per game for a whole season.
• Clyde Frazier says that Wilt Chamberlain’s dominance led to the introduction of new rules in the NBA, such as goaltending.
• Clyde Frazier says his favorite team is the 1967 Sixers because they were so physically dominating.
• Clyde Frazier chooses the 17-18 Golden State Warriors or the 72-win Bulls as the best team post-1990.
• Clyde Frazier believes analytics are important but shouldn’t solely determine game decisions. A coach’s intuition and feel for the game are also crucial.
• Clyde Frazier says that coaches don’t always get enough credit for the tough decisions they have to make.
• Clyde Frazier says his favorite players growing up were Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant.
Walt Frazier says Wilt Chamberlain has the best case for the GOAT (greatest of all time) because he brought more people to the stands and promoted the game.
Here are the reasons why Walt Frazier thinks Wilt Chamberlain has the best case for the GOAT.
• Wilt Chamberlain was the only player people knew in 1970. People didn’t even know the Knicks back then.
• Wilt Chamberlain’s records are ridiculous. Nobody comes close to his scoring records.
• He changed the game. The lane used to be three feet, they moved it to six feet because of Wilt. They added the goaltending rule because of Wilt.
People say his 100-point game wasn’t real, but Clyde Frazier says it was.

Agree that Wilt helped pave the way but he is nowhere near the GOAT

Walt is incorrect

Yes Wilt Chamberlain is the GOAT over any players
— Willy (@BlackWillyX) April 30, 2024
seems like every generation has his own GOAT
1950s: George Mikan
1960s: Bill Russell / Wilt
1970s: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
1980s: Magic / Bird
1990s: Michael Jordan
2000s: Kobe Bryant
2010s: Steph Curry— Cesc VR (@cesc_vr) April 30, 2024
This is why I don't get why ppl take the GOAT debate so seriously. It's highly subjective based on the era u grew up watching and was able to appreciate the most.

The man seldom dunked, lead the league in assists one year, is in the pro volleyball hall of fame, was a track & field all American… you could go on and on.
Even if you think he did all this playing plumbers (untrue) he's still gotta be in the GOAT ATHLETE discussion.
