Baylor was Doctor J before Doctor J, but a better rebounder.


I've heard greats call him OG Jordan.

John Thompson grew up in Washington close to where Baylor grew up and saw him on the park courts when he’d come home from school or his early nba career and said without a doubt he was the best he ever saw.
He was nicknamed Rabbit and there are pictures of people sitting on top of buildings and numerous people looking out every window overlooking the park just to look down and watch him play. Said sometimes he played in dress shoes and still dominated.
