Wilt Chambelain was the greatest NBA basketball player

I will now refute the arguments posted by my opponent. This constitutes with no doubt that Michael Jordan was the best player to ever play in the NBAContention 1: Difficultya)The addition of the 3 point line didn't make it easier for either party to score. The 3 point shot is the lowest percentage shot the offense can make. Wilt made most of his shots from mid-range and close to the basket. This means that Jordan had a greater ability as he was able to make longer ranged shots. Secondly, shooting free-throws at a 50% level is a terrible NBA percentage. This means that Wilt only made 1 out of every 2 shots, meaning within a 1000 shots he would miss 500. Compare this to the free throw shooting ability of Jordan 84%. This shows Jordan would have made 384 more shots than Wilt did with the same amount constituted. b) Whether or not the result of the tip ins were bad officiating or not, it still gave Chamberlain an advantage over Jordan. If you watch every single game played by Jordan you'll never se him commit an offensive goaltending penalty that wasn't called. Compared to Wilt who had a large amount of offensive goaltending tip ins.c)The fact that Wilt had an average of 8.5 assists is irrelevant, as his team still played for him. Missing free throws on purpose, so Wilt could score more was not an ability that Jordan was able to experience, which gave Wilt Chamberlain an unfair advantage over Jordan. This demonstrates that the game was easier for Wilt to play, than for Jordan, and for them to have the same scoring average per game shows that Jordan was greater, because without this assistance he accomplished the same thing 30.1 ppgContention 2: Minutes PlayedA) This doesn't adequately show that Wilt was more durable than Jordan by any means because B) To start off, Wilt being a center and never fouling out is irrelevant. And I understand that Jordan got tired, and or was in foul trouble. But in 36 minutes played for both players Jordan scored around 5 points more in that time spent on the court. Showing that he was a better offensive player than Wilt.C) This argument is also irrelevant, as the length of time away did more harm than good, as Jordan lost a step on the competition, and as I stated before had his 2 worst seasons after retiring. Showing that the rest was not rest, but him losing an edge.Contention 3: Scores of some gamesA) When you watch an All-star game now, not much defense is played, as players play this game strictly for fun until the later minutes, and this leads to the highest amount of points scored in the whole season. When you look at any All-Star game the score has never reached the total amount of some of the games in Wilt's time. This shows that defense was substantially low compared to Jordan's playing time, as he squared off against some of the greatest defenders in NBA history.The age of the player having surgery, doesn't have as much effect on the player, as the player's ability to bounce back from the injury. Take for instance Greg Oden and how young he is. There is no correlation between age and the playing ability after knee surgery. Kobe had surgery on his legs, but is still performing at a very high level in his 30's, no correlation. You say there was no complete package like Wilt, but 1. Jordan finished with more assists than Wilt, 2. Wilt does have more rebounds but he was 8 inches taller than Jordan, so that is expected, 3. Jordan like you said led the league in scoring the same amount of times as him making this null in the debate, 4. As far as accomplishments go, Michael outdoes Wilt here too.Michael Jordan: Six-time NBA champion (1991-93, 1996-98); NBA MVP (1988, '91, '92, '96, '98); 10-time All-NBA First Team (1987-93, 1996-98); All-NBA Second Team (1985); Defensive Player of the Year (1988); Nine-time All-Defensive First Team (1988-93, 1996-98); Rookie of the Year (1985); 14-time All-Star; All-Star MVP (1988, '96, '98); One of 50 Greatest Players in NBA History (1996); Two-time Olympic gold medalist (1984, '92). Jordan was also added to the NBA Hall of Fame in 2009Wilt Chamberlain:Elected to Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame (1978); NBA champion (1967, '72); NBA Finals MVP (1972); NBA MVP (1960, '66, '67, '68); All-NBA First Team (1960, '61, '62, '64, '66, '67, '68); Second Team ('63, '65, '72); All-Defensive First Team (1972, '73); Rookie of Year (1960); One of the 50 Greatest Players in NBA History (1996). Looking at these accomplishments alone, Jordan made the All NBA first team 3 more times than Wilt, made the NBA Defensive team 7 more times than Wilt Chamberlain, led his team to win 4 more titles than Wilt, led the USA to 2 gold medals, and won 5 NBA MVP's to Wilt's 4.Jordan is obviously shown here as the greater "package" than Wilt Chamberlain was through his accomplishments. With that being said I now turn the debate back to pro.
