re: Best scorer of all time. (NBA)

Wilt’s averaged dropped to around 22ppg once the lane was widened to the modern size. He’d have still been great but not like he was when he could just stand under the basket.

Uh, no, it didn't.

He averaged just under 35, then 33, then 24, 24, 20 and a half, and then 27 at the age of 33 before tailing off because of age-- but all in seasons with the widened lane.
