Wilt Chamberlain would play in any era

What's interesting about Wilt Chamberlain was his orignal intentions when entering the nba was to be a player like Bill Russell but better!
Mainly a defensive specialist with the capacity to score 30 plus points against anyone when needed!
But he accepted the role his coach suggested and become the most dominate offensive player in nba history and was arguably in the top two for defence as a centre.
What's scary is if he had done that he probably wouldn't have damaged his knees and could have played until 45 maybe 50 and that would have been a player that would have won more championships than anyone, scored more points had more defensive titles than anyone?
But he did what his coaches wanted and if he played his own game he wouldn't just have 60+ records in the record book, he would be the record book, if he played to 45 or 50 his points total 55, 000 to 64, 000 and that would be without the 3 point line?
His defensive record would be remarkable, and his records would be untouchable because you cannot tell anyone who watched basketball that Wilt Chamberlain couldn't either with finesse or sheer power couldn't make 8 points every 12 minutes in a basketball game!

Chamberlain was bigger, stronger, faster and a higher leaper than anyone who's ever played in the NBA. Tell you what, though, basketball aside. Find ONE NBA player that can clear this 6'6" high jump pole.

WILT CHAMBERLAIN. Only played 14 years. Most Rebounds, Most Blocks, Most Assists, Most Points per Season, Most Points per Game, stats go on and on. ONLY player to block Kareem Jabbar's Sky Hook (Many Times). Could Dunk standing from the Foul Line. NBA had to change court spacing and rules because of Wilt. List goes on and on. Retired 50 years ago, Held 90 individual records and still holds 9 to this day. Sure, Jordan has more Championships and Russell has more Rings. But those are TEAM Awards. No one comes close to Wilt Chamberlain's INDIVIDUAL Achievements! And if that's not enough, was better looking too. This is an Absolute No-Brainer. OH, And WILT WOULD EAT Lebrons LUNCH. Period.
