I loved Maravich back in the day but the guy shot the ball an incredible amount of times and still played on teams with losing records.

Wilt averaged 38 points against Bill Russell for his career. Pete played against an almost all white SEC.

Wilt also owns 70 other NBA records. No comparison and certainly not the "single greatist feat in sports"

OK... But how many times did HIs team[s] win a title over Russell??????

That's great, BUT.... He was 7'1 playing against mostly 6-5 guys... Think about it... IMO Kobes 81 points in one game is more impressive than Wilts 100.........

Do you think Wilt could have done all he accomplished with the same birth defect The Pistol had?

Pistol's autopsy revealed the cause of death to be a rare congenital defect; he had been born with a missing left coronary artery, a vessel which supplies blood to the muscle fibers of the heart.

Actually the fact Pistol Pete was able to run up and down the court playing basketball at a professional level might be the greatest feat so far mentioned in this thread.
