position was even better. His career was magnificent though obviously too short. He was the Sandy Koufax of basketball as far as career analysis goes in regard to injury. I loved listening to him when he did a college game. Ultimate team center but could take over if it was needed. His Portland team was not as talented the year they won the title but Bill's play and Jack Ramsay coaching allowed it to get done.
IMO he and Wilt were the two most athletic centers ever but Bill's body control in the center
