I know that's just a commercial & they're trying to be funny, but there is some truth behind that. If you have some plays, they can make you look immortal.

In every sport you have guys that dominate but there's always an opponent out there, where you can't dominate like that. Where things get edgy. Pressure. You know that one play can decide the faith of the whole game. It's never so easy. That's why Lebron was beasting and cruising the whole season last year, until Dallas showed up in the finals and they couldn't just dominate like that. That's when his true colors had shown.

On talent, Chamberlain was heads and shoulders better than Russell, but Russell just always beat Wilt. You can't explain it.

Yes you can lol. I can't speak on that because I wasn't relatively close to being around then, but to compare it to today, it's like how the Lakers always beat the Kings in the playoffs. The Lakers just had more talent. It's a team game. If you pin winning & losing on one player from the winning team beating one player from the losing team, you're lost already.
I mean you guys are all Laker fans, so it makes sense for you guys to be more entrapped in this "alternate world" where people play better in the last thirty seconds than they do for the other forty-seven and a half. They've thrown Kobe & all his highlights at you for years. It's good for business. Take away Jordan being larger than life & Nike isn't where it's at, the Jordan brand is no bigger than Chris Bosh's shoes (exaggeration, relax) & the NBA doesn't have a name to market for future players to live up to being. I guarantee that in the late 80's people were saying the same thing about Jordan, how he isn't Bird or Magic. MJ won rings, hit a few shots for highlight makers to throw at you making you think he shots "better" in the last seconds than he did for the rest of the game & now you have the face of the sport. They're doing it it with Kobe & then if LeBron starts winning, him & then Durant & so on. It's so simple, but they know people become so connected with these teams & players & you'll ride to the death before you listen to someone like me. Facts are just facts, they shoot similarly & in most cases worse in the closing minutes than they do for the rest of the game, it just comes down to who has the most in order to market you.

This has to do with Russell beating Chamberlain? You are trying way too hard with this.
