[Highlights] Elgin Baylor highlights
Such a unique player and you can see it in these highlights, where he was the face-to-the-basket mid-range king.
This wasn’t an overpowering physical player, not a superior athlete relatively other than great hang time, not someone who punishes people in the block. But they had a hard time stopping him scoring.
One of the greatest, for sure.
The Celtics got more rings, but the Lakers franchise history is ridiculous - take their all time top 10 and you’ve probably got 40% of the NBA all time top 25.
“The Major League of Basketball”
I wonder if this is how they referred to the ABA + NBA for a time? or just a off the cuff term for pro ball lol
