In today's tribute to Wilt Chamberlain, the clip comes from the 1st quarter of game 5 of the 1972 NBA Finals between the Los Angeles Lakers and the New York Knicks. At 3:06 of this clip, Chamberlain makes a great spin move en route to a reverse slam, showing that even with injuries to both hands, he still could dominate the opposition! The Lakers beat the Knicks 114-100 to win the series 4 games to 1 and win their first NBA title since moving to L.A. in 1960 (first title since 1954), with Chamberlain winning Finals MVP. |
