The Warriors won the game 169–147, setting what was then a record for the most combined points in a game by both teams. The game is most remembered, however, for the 100 points scored by Warriors center Wilt Chamberlain. This performance ranks as the NBA's single-game scoring record; along the way Chamberlain also broke five other NBA scoring records, of which four still stand. As Chamberlain broke several other scoring records during the 1961–62 NBA season, his 100-point performance was initially overlooked. In time, however, it became his signature game.

Wilt Chamberlain's 100-point game 2 Prologue Chamberlain, the Warriors' star center, was on a unique scoring spree. He had already scored 60 or more points a record 15 times in his career. On December 8, 1961, in a triple overtime game versus the Los Angeles Lakers, he had set a new NBA record by scoring 78 points, eclipsing the previous mark of 71 held by the Lakers' Elgin Baylor.

Brought to you by | University of Toronto-Ocul Authenticated Download Date | 3/2/16 11:03 PM A Starting Point for Analyzing Basketball Statistics Justin Kubatko, Dean Oliver, Kevin Pelton, and Dan T. Rosenbaum Abstract The quantitative analysis of sports is a growing branch of science and, in many ways one that has developed through non-academic and non-traditionally peer-reviewed work. The aim of this paper is to bring to a peer-reviewed journal the generally accepted basics of the analysis of basketball, thereby providing a common starting point for future research in basketball. The possession concept, in particular the concept of equal possessions for opponents in a game, is central to basketball analysis. Estimates of possessions have existed for approximately two decades, but the various formulas have sometimes created confusion. We hope that by showing how most previous formulas are special cases of our more general formulation, we shed light on the relationship between possessions and various statistics.

  • Why Wilt Chamberlain Was the Greatest NBA Player by Steve Smith / February 26, 2009
    archived as http://www.stealthskater.com/Documents/Basketball_07.doc (also …Basketball_07.pdf) => doc pdf URL-doc URL-pdf more sports-related articles are on the /Sports.htm page at doc pdf URL Why Wilt Chamberlain Was the Greatest NBA Player by Steve Smith / February 26, 2009 One of the most common types of articles on this site is a comparison between players and teams. Which can certainly be a fun way to pass some time. There have been numerous articles (generating thousands-upon-thousands of comments) contemplating who is the better player. Kobe Bryant or LeBron James. There have been an even greater number of articles wondering whether Kobe deserves to be ranked with Jordan which at times sparks so much controversy that it makes you wonder whether those commenting on it all are even out of grade school. Most of the questions on the “Short List” are comparisons just such as this (one of them asking “Jordan or Russell?”) And there are even some articles questioning who is the greatest player of all time with Michael Jordan being the de facto answer of a majority of those that I see. Other players are always mentioned when a list of the greatest players in NBA history are worked up including Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Oscar Robertson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Hakeem Olajuwon, and more recent players such as Kevin Garnett, Allen Iverson, Paul Pierce, and Tim Duncan. While there are valid arguments to be made that all of these players should be considered among the best players in NBA history, their accomplishments one-and-all pale in comparison to Wilt Chamberlain’s who is (hile mentioned among them) relegated far too often to second-string.

NBA players Julius Erving and Wali Jones will be among those dedicating the Wilt Chamberlain Forever stamps Dec. 5 at halftime when the Philadelphia 76ers host the Oklahoma City Thunder (tip-off at 7 p.m.). A video of Chamberlain’s accomplishments will highlight the ceremony. All 50 million stamps, available nationwide Friday morning, can be pre-ordered now. “When it came to determining the first NBA player to be honored on a stamp, Wilt Chamberlain was a slam dunk,” said U.S. Postal Service General Counsel and Executive Vice President Tom Marshall. At 7ft. 1 in., ‘the Big Dipper’s’ physical stature, athleticism and talent helped him to dominate the NBA and to put an indelible mark on the NBA record books. We decided to portray his dominance on the court with two towering Forever stamps depicting Wilt in the uniforms of two of the NBA teams for which he played.

On the bus, the players were teasing each other about who knew the most famous people. The debate raged on and Michael remained quiet. Someone yelled,“How about you, Michael? Who do you know who’s famous?” MJ said, “Who do you want me to call?” Someone said, “How about Janet Jackson?” MJ placed a call and said,“Hi, Janet. This is Mike. Give me a call.” Someone said, “Aw, you’re just faking it.”Thirty seconds later, the phone rang. It was Janet Jackson.
