Wilt's 48 inch vert always sounded insane to me, but a 40 inch vert is still pretty damn insane for a 7'1 player and he was a true 7'1 (measured without shoes). I was always impressed by how easily Wilt launched himself into the air. A lot of big men really have to exert themselves to get airborne, but Wilt did it so effortlessly.
I vibe with this comment. I recently saw a video of a roughly 6'5" 240lb body builder do an extremely acrobatic back flip, dude had like a full extra second of air time he probably could've done a second flip. Insane to me to watch huge guys like that move around so well.
Wilt probably had some of the densest fast twitch fibers in human history tbh
He has a video of him doing a 6’6 high jump
@@YAPPS600 high jump measurements don’t count because it’s a different style of measurement and most of the highest leapers in the NBA haven’t competed in high jump and therefore don’t have that measurement

The Heat weren’t the first “super” team, they were the first “super” team that was entirely formed by players, not teams. The Bulls and 80s Celtics were mainly formed through the draft and team led trades
Arjuna Bazaz facts!
Exactly
Not the second 3 peat bulls and that’s the only bulls he was talking about.
@@timrettig8457 i dont get why people consider that bulls a superteam. I'm a Rodman fan. He's one of my favorite players ever. I have a collection of his jerseys. He is a hall of famer. But he was not exactly a guy known to change a franchise. He had just com from Spurs where he did not have such an impact and he wasn't exactly sought after. In fact he was traded for Will Perdue. Not exactly an NBA shaking move.
And the numbers support that. He was more hustle than technique. Thats why I loved him playing, but that hardly makes a super team.
The Warriors also bother me. Their big 3 were drafted and had a 73 win season before adding Durant. That not a super team in the meaning I get for that expression. That is a very well managed drafting. Not hired for millions in order to stack with talent.
Anyway, all this is subjective, I suppose.
Thats because free agency didnt exist so it doesnt really makes and the celtics would still be the firat
The story with Wilt reaching the top of the backboard actually involves him grabbing a quarter, so using that we can assume his max reach is actually closer to 13'1.5 or evenhigher
Crazily it’s actually around 13.3 ft!
What would that mean his vertical was?
The mythological story you mean. 😂
This man can come out and say:
Here's why Joakim Noah is the REAL G.O.A.T.
And yet he'd still have quality evidence for it
Boy, I tried to make the case in my mind but...it all falls apart after DPOY and 2 ASGs;)
He was really good for 4 years and shite ever since
YeeSoest he also was top 3 in MVP one year during like 2011 or 2012 I think when D-ROSE was injured

40-41 inch vert is still crazy thing when we're talking about 7'1'' giant
I believe that was his point at the end when he made the Miles Plumlee comparison.
Not to mention 41 inches jump by Wilt were done using only a standing vert .. not a max vert.
@@legendaryblood1937 Not true. In those days they measured how high someone could get above the rim by touching a spot on the backboard, usually with a running start like Jerry West does here. czcams.com/video/Oj9jbyUlsPU/video.html
They never measured standing vert nor even max vert the same way we do today.
His 40 inch is a myth. Its a 52 inch verical chase down thank you. Afterall, he touched the top of a back board with a standing jump
It's hard to believe that its actually 48 inch

This is 4th quarter stats. Far from what “clutch means”. Case in point, Robert Horry.
He should have called it crunch time
@@justainternetwonderer1273 exactly we are talking about the biggest, playoffs/championship, pressure-packed, do-or-die type of games, not those last 6 minutes 4th quarter regular season games sheesh, This channel almost always skew the truth and turn it to myth and vice versa. Same as the superteams, there should be an asterisk with player-induced superteams and team-induced superteams, 2 different things.
@@jordanthedoge535 If you actually looked into it, even in the most pressure-packed moments and do or die moments, the better shooters normally will still shoot better, even if they are regarded as not clutch. Clutch is a completely biased narative. Statistically, steph is one of the most clutch shooters in history, no matter what way you are trying to bias it
My take: being clutch means NOT having a worse percentage, when shots start to matter. Clutch performers aren't getting better - they just stay as good as they are. Others don't.
Funny enough, there is a stat that claims that Lebron only hit 20% (!) of shots with 5 seconds or less on the clock, to tie or win a game, during his career... he’s great and ice cold, up until this very last possession... and if you've watched him over the last seasons, you know that he almost never takes the last-possession-shots, anymore...

Just to tell you how crazy a 48" vertical is for those who don't know but if Tacko Fall had a 48" vertical he'd be jumping about 6.5" higher then the BACKBOARD.
The backboard would become a hurdle
Nice video. Wilt's highest measured reach is 13'3 so he had a max 45 inch vertical. During games, Wilt was a one-step leaper and he could get to around the top of the backboard. When you get measured for the vertical leap, you get a running start.

I'd like to see clutch stats for the last 2-3 mins or so because I think most people consider that to be clutch, not the whole fourth quarter.
For real and on top of that you you have to factor in the hype it brings to your teammates, the assist, the blocks, the steals. Not just the shooting percentage. Being clutch isn’t only about scoring.
G C when you look at the last 10 seconds in playoff games LeBron still has a higher fg % than MJ and Kobe
G C Michael Jordan: 7/15 (47%)
Kobe Bryant: 5/22 (23%)
LeBron James: 12/23 (52%)
the last 10 seconds stats
I agree. Take away layups and make the shooter is being guarded. That’s how I see a clutch shooter. Everyone knows you’re getting the ball, no layups or dunks. straight jump shot.
@@jago103182 So only jumpshots make you clutch?!?!?! ASININE! The pressure of you and everyone in the building knowing the ball is coming to you for the shot... if you get to the rim, you are not only smarter and more efficient than the jumpshooter, you are CLEARLY better to be able to sift through the defense and get the best possible shot! You guys are comical with your takes!
In respect to the "Clutch" player thing: The calculations were based on the last 12 minutes of a game, but many examples come to mind, that really don't impact the game that much in the 4th quarter overall, but for instance in the last 2-3 minutes they make one or two super crucial plays or make the game winning shot or score in rue of taking the lead and the momentum. Basing it on 12 minutes tells the average and not really the whole story, I think.
Also, I believe there is a thing like certain players being more prone to get hot in crucial moments. If you look at the averages over one or more seasons, that phenomenon might be statistically invisible, if a player has one of those games now and then, but also has a number of games in which he performs subpar in important minutes or even the whole game.
yeah the clutch part he kinda butchered. The last couple of possessions are where you can see the best player being forced into a bad shot, on a defense that uses everything to stop you. This is also where people really get to play with nerves, that can seriously affect your ability.
The last 12 minutes is too much time, that's a whole quarter if the score is less than 6 points apart, what if the team was losing by 8 points and get back at the end? Weren't those first 2 or 3 points made in clutch time too? We know that it's arbitrary, but 12 minutes is too much.
Worse definition of clutch I've seen.

So much more respect for Wilt's numbers. I thought most centers in his time were shorter.
Average height of centers back then was 6’11 same as today. What you talking about. IDC anymore your just gonna bring up another excuse like they weren’t skilled enough or possibly there were 8 teams.
@@greatdane1991 bruh he just said he had more respect for his numbers since he learned they were the same height
@@greatdane1991 Lot of people just don't do research into the era they hear myths about.
It’s quite probable that Wilts standing vertical jump was marginally better in a test scenario vs in game. But stretching from an estimated 40 (in game) to 48 (test) is a massive leap.
I mean it would not be crazy to say he had best vertical in history, but almost a quarter of a jump from the next guy is most defnitely not true. we cant say for sure, but we aso cant say that there was not ever a guy who could jump 80 inches but lets be real, chances for that are next to none. same with Wilt
@@nbassasin8092 almost a quarter of a jump? the record isnt 36 inches its 48, he would just tie the record
@@smoceany9478 highest recored jumping center in history has 40 in this video, if Wilt was theoretically 48 it means he has 8 inches more, 10 would be an exact quarter more so I rounded and said almost a quarter more, stop being overly pedantic
@@nbassasin8092 oh you meant center,, well yea alright, makes sense
@@smoceany9478 Well that is a big factor, you cant compare otherwise, it is biologically impossible, what I was trying to do is put this myth into a perspective, 2 inches more than highest one doesnt sound that much, especially since it is Wilt and since he was special it is plausible for some, who dont take into consideraiton how height influences jumping negatively after a certain limit. Hell 8 inches more than highest center sounds plaussible as well for some, because you dont have perspective and reference of how big of a difference that is, 8 inches can be relatively big or small number. But when oyu say almost a quarter more than the next most capable person in that regard, we aint comparing him to average person in that category, but the next best jumping center, that is how you put it in perspective and make it obvious how it is impossible that it was truth. because 8 inches doesnt tell you much, what if the next best guy had 100 inch vertical, then 8 inches would be 8% and while still impressive margin, it would be possible. But almost a 25% difference in any category would have to mean he had some genetic or in other way biological anomaly, its not possible for a normal natural human beign to have that advantage over the next best one
Edit: this was my original train of thought, but since it is a youtube comment seciton I wanted to make it concise as possible so I wrote it the original way I did

Regarding the "clutch" myth... I'll just say sometimes the absence of context can effect the impact of stats.
Yup, doesn't matter when you pull off a clutch moment early in the season compared to playoff games.
Also, 12 minutes aka a quarter of the game isn't clutch. That's usually last 30 seconds. And also, shots should be counted for when the team is DOWN in points not in situations where the team is up.
@@samraizshoaib585 not necessarily. Daggers are clutch no?

@@giaxd405 fair enough
I love how even if Wilt didn't have a 48" vertical, he still likely had the highest vert of any 7 footer in history
Just copy and pasting one of the comments I said earlier when someone said he doesn't have a 45 inch vert.
Think about how they were placing him at around a 40 inch vert by just watching him play sports, he is not even jumping as high as he can, he has to also focus on playing the game, we have no idea how tired he already is(he plays every minute), whether or not if he is sore, and he is not just solely doing a jump at full capacity. We don't have enough information to even prove that he doesn't really have a 48 inch vert. And just based off of him getting a 40 while just looking at a random jump from his games I wouldn't doubt he at least has a 45 inch vert. And maybe he really did have a 48 inch vert at some point, we didn't even get to really see his prime.
AceMcKnight you realize how big the difference between a 40 and a 45 inch vert is mans chest would be at the rim and that random clip is the one everyone shows because that’s the highest he’s been filmed jumping and your argument that he never jumped as high as he could is stupid how would you never once in your career jump your hardest to block a show or something like that claim is actually so pee brained for you to even think
@@winstonshepard7410You literally just backed up my statement when you said that's the highest we've ever filmed him jumping, we barely even seen his career. And did you really just say pee brain while not considering the many factors that go into a jump, he has to time the jump to make it to the ball in time, he doesn't have time for a full force jump, he didn't prepare for a single jump and a single jump only, like do I really have to re say everything I just said, it's almost as if you can't read.
@@winstonshepard7410 Pee brain Lmao, I can also tell you clearly have no idea how to jump correctly, you don't even know the difference between a random jump mid game (tons of factors) and a actual measured jump with nothing else in the picture, you can have perfect form, no fatigue, no soreness, nothing to think about but that single jump, and with them in their prime, there is a huge difference.
@@XENOX-777 Is there even any proof that he had a 48 inch vertical?
Jimmy has some wild takes in the beginning of his videos, and then whips out 50 million charts to prove him right
Minimal Interest but, they’re literally numbers....,.and they aren’t, lying?
Minimal Interest how do you lie when you pull up 3 different types of charts all proving your claim?
Lmao accurate as fuck
Guys he has minimal interest. What do you expect
Those charts don’t prove him right. If you torture numbers enough they will confess to anything. He’s cherry picking and basing his entire argument on stats.
The transitions in this video were so smooth that I didn't realize that he went over every myth until the end. That's just genius
I think you're painting with a broad brush on the first point. Numbers don't lie, but clutch is more than your percentage. Clutch is heart. Clutch is "I can be 4-16 from the field and I'm going to shoot this last shot like I've been getting buckets all game." Clutch is a mindset that no matter what I'm not rattled, I embrace this moment!
If that mindset doesn't translate to gameplay then does it matter though ?

I feel like REAL clutch ness is within the last 5 mins. Curry, lebron, Damian lillard, kawhi, Klay. All of these players in my opinion have been the most clutch in those last 5 mins in this decade (10’-20’)
RIP Kobe, he was clutch
@@glorp7833 clutchness should partially be ability to lead a comeback or pull away, hit a game winning or tying shot (anywhere), and have great overall performances through the whole game in important games. (Lebron, 2012 ECF game 6)
Funny how despite being a legend, Wilt is still somehow underrated. Give the man at least a 40.75 inch vertical, so Wilt can be #1 on the list of 7 footers jumping ability. He was also a world class volleyball player. P.S. My grandfather held the Canadian high jump record for a few years, using the same "Western Roll" style we saw Wit successfully employing. Crazy they had to land on sawdust! My grandfather paid the price in later years for all those hard, punishing falls. P.S.S. Great job on the video. Peace out.
Great content - and I agree some players get a clutch reputation that is unwarranted but some players definitely choke or perform better under pressure then others.

The term “defence wins championships” is because most young players only want to score and slack on D.
Big fact, many of our eldest fan our just a bitter and younger fan is a show off
Also, it wasn't a good comparison when he said "the highest rated defense won 12, lost 8; and the highest offense won 12 lost 8"-- because obviously the same team will be higher in off and def. Obviously a much more accurate comparison would be, how many times did the highest rated def beat the highest rated off, when they WERE NOT the same team.
Ayyooo slack on d

Bro, you are the GOAT NBA analyst. I wish ESPN would hire you!
I love how after the fact, when player's stories are written, one can just go back and assume that these were super teams. When in fact many of these players turned into hall of famers only after so many years winning. It was never obvious at first. No one knew Pippen, Rodman, would be superstars their first three or five years in league!....but everyone knew there were a strong possibility wade, LeBron and bosch would became superstars right after their rookie years.

I think there's a solution here: we need to get the right definition of "clutch" because NO ONE means the last 12 mins of the game when they use the word "clutch"
Clutch is basically scoring the ball or bringing your team back into contention in Desperate moments.
That’s what I said.
Young Love yeah but he’s using this narrative to dimish the greatness of MJ , and while yes he was known for having a great 4th quarter he was more known for converting on the final possession of a game
@@taskmaster6129 actually, no he's not. He says Jordan may be the most clutch player in that regard. I disagree with him. Jordan is overrated. No one ever points out Jordan's flaws such as when he used to be a selfish player before Phil Jackson came along or how Pip6made clutch plays to keep them in the game resulting in Jordan being able to take the final shot and clench the win. There's times when the Bulls bench stepped up while Jordan struggled. But when it comes to everyone else they got excuses for why they're not clutch. "Ray Allen and Kyrie irving saved Lebron's career." "Kobe took too many shots and they don't count the misses." "Jerry West only has 1 out of 9 champions." As far as I'm concerned, Reggie Miller is more clutch than Jordan. He doesn't have as much skill and versatility as most shooting guards but his clutch gene compensates for all that an is a primary reason that he was a superstar as opposed to an All Star. And that's just one example of many.
thats the only reason why lebrons pecentage is so high

Jxmmy starts charting:
Me: Ahh sh*t here we go again
Okay I’m not trying to hate but since when was the last 12 MINUTES of a game considered “the clutch”
ikr
Shouldn’t the last 48 minutes of the game be considered “the clutch”? Bc every shot you make or miss will help or hurt the chances of you winning the game. There’s more to a game than just the last 5 minutes.
Science I'm guessing
Personally, I think it depends on the game whether or not this criteria should be used. Game 34 of the regular season? Who gives a shit what is or isn't clutch. Game 7 of the Finals? Hell yes those last 12 minutes can be considered "clutch time" if it's a close back and forth game.
Also, whole games can be considered "clutch time" depending on the situation. For example.....LeBron in the 2016 Finals in the last 3 games with his Cavs down 3-1 in the series.
Nah you wildin, there is definitely a clutch factor 🤣
I like how he just forgets who Tim Duncan’s Spurs were

I'm a Spurs fan and imo, the Spurs is like the 04 Pistons. The difference is that their coach is not Gregg Popovich.
Warriors were also a "superteam" in performance, but not in means of assembly. Only KD was a free agent. Klay, Draymond and Steph were relatively low draft picks with Draymond going in the second round.
Every time I click on his videos I get sad when I don’t hear the trap sax
Same man
Who cares just focus on the video
Akame ga kill??
Lebron Jamek THANK YOU jeez just look up trap sax music if you wanna hear it so damn bad
Wilt is such a freak of nature his whole career sounds like a myth, I love that
I hope he played in the modern era
Rayene Boussetta *wished
IKR lmao 🤣
That’s not surprising at all
Why isn’t wilt chamberlain ever talked about in the greatest alive
The thing with the heat superteam in 2011 was that it was the first superteam where players made the decision on their own and not where organisations orchestrated the whole thing
I never want these videos to end
Maaan the amount of work that went into this video!! Great job on the storytelling, but then the graphics which I know how tedious they can get 😃 Great video Jimmy ✌
Heat Check hi heat check
Imagine if tacko had a 48 inch vert👀👀👀
@Ethan Zambrano That's why he said "Imagine"
@@JimmyButlersdreads he heard you lmao that's why he said he REFUSED to even IMAGINE the THOUGHT of the POSSIBILITY of such a HORRIFIC reality
25 blocks pg
@Ethan Zambrano i think he has 27" max vert
@@ye-3026 yeah 2 foot 3 inch vert
Also, I always thought the concept of a super team arrived when superstar players started seeking out teams with other superstars; in order to increase their chances of winning championships. If a team's management acquires multiple superstar players by offering them good contracts, they might have a stacked team; but that's just business as usual. So my assumption was always that the formation of super teams was player driven. But maybe that sort of thing was happening in the 60s, 70s and 80s too, but wasn't as well known....
Jimmy’s “well kinda” is like blackyspeaks’s “Now”
Wilt was 7’1, if he had a 48 inch vertical his head would be at 11’1. that’s 13 inches above the rim dawg. never happened
U gotta realise that all those pictures he showed are standing verts not a max vert, when wilt was in his prime he couldve maybe jumped that high
40 still good tho
Lucar S. Exactly standing his arm was at the top of the backboard on a block and it was a standing jump
wilt was trynna score not jump as high as he can
@@Dankestkey u slow, his standing reach was only 9' 7". His max reach was the top of the backboard.
Jimmy- shows charts and math, and stuff
Me trying to keep up- Yup, uhhhh ok clutch, kobe, charts and Miles Plumly is the goat
lmao

Big Shot Bob looking at that clutch shot list with a grin lol
Saying Wilt was in his prime when playing with the Lakers is really dumb tho, it was at the end of his career and attempted way less shots while focusing more on playmaking
Yeah the only thing that stayed around the same was rebounding
@@cipapicipapici5511 I've always thought his range of getting the far rebounds fell off a bit sense he not only lost most of his hops but also his lateral quickness and speed.
His prime literally ended in 1968
ikr and to think he averaged 8.8 blocks in his last two seasons...
unfortunately many awesome defenders like Hondo, Logo, Bill Russell never got their stats in their prime recorded
@@harmanjotsingh4230 Wilt never averaged 8 blocks. They didn't record blocks in his era. Hondo got his steals and blocks recorded in his later years.
"Clutch" shouldnt be defined as the last 12 mins when within 6 points. More like the last 2-3 mins.
Fax
It's always been defined as the last 5 minutes, but that's when LeBron starts to choke, so they had to give him a full quarter.
@@FRodriguez_ found the Bron hater
@@Jsak28 found the Bron fanboy
It also said it was in between a 6 point difference.
"And as always until next time."
-JxmyHighroller
Jimmy.... You are the Myth Buster of basketball... Loved the way you bring facts in the arguments by bringing statistics and reliable data... You are good at this!... WHY NOT PUBLISH YOUR OWN BOOK ON QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH?...
Jxmy: do you think the 3peat Lakers in 2000,2001 and 2002 would be a super team?
You’re trying to put Skip out of business with debunking “clutch”.
I disagree with jimmy cause clutch can’t be a stat in my opinion
@@NikolaJokic23 i wouldn't say that but i think what the concept of clutch that he used was wrong, a clutch shooter like shooter was the type of guy that wouldn't be affected by pressure and hit a game winner in the finals as a guy like westbrook would shot a 30 feet brick with 3 seconda left on the clock, that's what separate a clutch player from a non clutch player imo
john doe ONG THO! I was literally thinking how he would react to this video
@@JulioCesar-zl1km you didn't watch the vid did you
Wilt didn’t need to jump that high in a game... He was just giving them a chance...🤣
he only used his jumping abilities for shot blocking, rebounding, and defense
I just saw a clip where he got most of his head above the rim, so he jumped at least 3ft 6in, or 42in
Hayden Gaming 33333 how you calculated? how much of his head? what video? how do you know how big his head is? do you know how high his shoes are?
Uncle Ben I mean if u got insta I can send u the clip
@@uncleben7306 Well theres claims he was able to jump and grab a quarter off of the top of the backboard, that looks pretty accurate to the example picture that was shown in the video with his arm stretched out and max height
This is a really great video. Thank you for doing the work to make it possible. I do have a question. All the "Clutch" players you talked about in the video were modern players. Where would Jerry West (known as MISTER Clutch) fit into those numbers?
2:30 this is where jimmy was wrong for the first time... no it's right... LOL
When my guy said clutch shooting doesn’t exist I knew I had to strap in for this one
How you didn’t already know that before this video
It doesn’t exist. Like just think about it. Everyone knows the famous game winning shots Jordan made throughout his career. But do you know how many late game shots Jordan missed? No of course you don’t bc those don’t show up on the highlight reels. It’s all bias and made up bullshit. If you’re a good shooter, then you’re gonna shoot well late in a close game. It’s not rocket science.
@@mattschumacher4581 no it's not that simple lol, there's ALWAYS going to be pressure. some people just can't handle the mental stress and their concentration falters. we've seen hundreds of players choke clutch shots or freethrows in boston or philly (2 of the loudest and most violent crowds).
@@anishsattaram3793 why are you saying boston and philly, there are guys now who choke, why you didn't mention them
Anish Sattaram maybe they missed those shots bc they just missed those shots. Steph Curry doesn’t make every open 3. Players don’t choke they just miss shots.
I’m curious how the numbers would be if we looked at the last minute of a close game only
It should be last 2 minutes
Rayene Boussetta stars not taking 10 shots in that time span definitely would be high for a lot of players
Clutch is technically last 5 minutes of a 'close' game. He did a good job manipulating stats in this vid. Seems like hes making it up but ok I guess some of that is sorta true
Exactly! Players can shoot 💯 for the game but if those shots were made during the flow and not at critical points, it doesn't fuckin matter.
Numbers mean everything bc if u have a good FG% u are clutch but people who are clutch has low FG% so clutch is not a thing ?
Clutch Moments is where you define your legacy in the NBA, where you take over or dominate the most important games in your career, it's not just buzzer beaters
Good call...you said it! You nailed it!

Hold on one second...
"11 hall of famers, 8 in their prime"
Didn't Bill Russell's Celtics win 11 rings, and 8 in a row?
👀
Bill won 11 rings and 8 in a row. Not the Celtics roster
In an 8 team league in the 60s does it really count ?
@@nothingchannel6402 yes
Nothing channel it’s does he played in a different era that’s why
Nothing channel you have to account that there’s just 8 teams so it not watered down. For example take the absolute best players from today’s game and compress them down into 8 teams. That’s what Bill Russell played through.
The most recents super teams are free agents coming together in the offseason , not being drafted there like in the 60s,70s,and 80s
I was gonna say that, the modern super team is when the all stars come together through free agency or trades, while back then it was more so the became a super team
finally someone said it
I know you said most but GSW
@@no.1trunkstard839 gsw wasnt a super team until they traded for durant, they were a really good team with a new kind of offense that no one was ready for. They became unbeatable when durant joined
What about GM trading for other players, thats is the same thing as a player joining forces, actually its worse because now the players have a choice!
I think it could possible that Wilt had a 48 inch vertical because most of the footage and pictures shown are of standing vertical jumps. There was no running start to any of them except to the one where he jumped into the sand pit.
Lol derozen being called not clutch is funny nowadays
Jimmy, could you please make the "clutch" shooting percentages with 3 minutes remaining, and then with 1 minute remaining? I'm just really curious, btw keep the good content, your channel is amazing.
@G C you wouldnt say he is scared to his face though
Krlllx he would probably never meet him face to face thio
@G C did you really diss a man for passing, that's a pretty important part of basketball. What's next, getting mad at a rebound?
yes! IMO 12 min. is wayyyyy to much to measure clutchness
@@tomtigertimtiger9499 but it's the only statistic out there that we can use to define clutch other than the one that jxmmy used here, unless some one were to go a d watch the last 3 minutes or dobof every NBA game ever that was around 6 points in point differential.
A 40 inch vertical is insane for a 7'1 center who played in the 60's.
The fact that his height was bbare foot aswell so technically 7'2
and in chuck taylors
His athleticism is 50 years ahead of his time 4.5 speed 550 bench press in his 40s 38-40 vert
Huxanator yeah that 550 bench is BS and we all know it. that 4.5 is probably stretched too. maybe 4.6 but not 4.5
@@cooperjames882 Im a solid 90% sure his bench was legit. At age 59 he was still benching 450+
Clutch is an idea, a concept. not a statistical fact. Great video!
Lol @ Karl Malone being on the “choke artists” list
People routinely say he 'disappeared' down the stretch in the playoffs.
Who else found one of jimmys vids and now watches him regularly?
Me
Isn’t that how it always works?
not me been watching for 2 and a half years
I been watching him for a while now
JacobFSU 3yrs miss the 🎷 intro beat😭
"Clutch shooting is a myth"
*Jamal shooting 73% from 3pt in the clutch these playoffs*
"Well, kinda"
lollllllll
I love when people say the Heat broke the NBA so I can then say That Dirk beat a Superteam that broke the NBA
Not to mention he stopped Kobe's three-peat attempt... in a sweep.
This is one of those "stats don't lie but liars use stats," videos lol
I remember one old myth that led me to believe was that left-handed shooters were "more accurate" than right-handed shooters.
Its not a myth
I reckon it’s the fact that they are harder to guard when they’re lefties
there could be some type of explanation. because i've never met a left handed hooper who COULDN'T shoot
@A.A.Ron Davis gotta factor in that due to the lack of lefties in the world, they aren't that many to guard others so their FG% goes up
Its just because most defenders if not all are not used to guarding lefties due to the fact that there are more righties than lefties.
That clutch vs non clutch analysis is so weak I don't even want to get to the details. You cant define clutch time as the last 12 mins to start with, and you also cant just look at the %... It doesn't tell the full story... Come on you are much better than that
@orange juice That's the reason why it was a weak argument, there's simply no data to fully back it up. Sure, it could be proof, but to disprove clutch? No. Numbers can't show what's going on a player's or team's mind while trying to win a playoff game with a big lead to overcome and with time winding down.
@orange juice You can't say a bad statistical category is good because there isn't a better one... He simply shouldn't have included that part in the video, instead of declaring clutch a myth based on a ridiculous definition.
I know man..Jimmy kinda disappointed me in this vid
I like Jxmy's videos, but I have to agreee with you Reggie. He has a history of tailoring his examples and graphs as well to make things look less or more impressive to fit his narrative as well. Where you start an axis on a graph can make stats look completely different on a graph.
Biggest NBA myth I know is whenever someone high/drunk claims they can beat [insert NBA player's name]...
spurs were lowkey a super team ngl
