Manute
Mutombo *finger wag*
Theo Ratliff
Trae Young 😤
Wilt, if we’re being honest
Theo Ratliff
Wilt
Wilt. But if we can’t use people twice, then Bol or Ratliff.
Manute
Wilt. They didn’t count blocks back then, but the estimate was ten a game.
It’s Theo
Theo averaged 3.3 bpg over 4 seasons with Philly
Mutombo 2.45 over 2 seasons
Bol 2.66 over 3 seasons
Blocks unfortunately weren’t a stat when Wilt was in Philly
It has to be Wilt and his 23,924 rebounds and his would definitely be a record if they counted blocks when he played
Embiid. Look you can’t just go by blocks. There’s more to interior defense than just blocks. Joel has less blocks because his defense keeps people out of the paint. Bol would get cooked in this day and age. Mutombo could have been but he barely played here and when he did he was already past his prime (although still far from cooked). Ratliff perhaps? But still Embiid just changes the entire complexion of the game with his defense in a way that Ratliff never really did.
Dikembe
Recency bias says Joel
Wilt.
Wilt
Wilt
embiid manute or wilt but let’s be based and give it to theo ratliff
Richaun Holmes
Wilt
I’m just going to put this out there. And mosr of these are at the end of his career.
i guess im late commenting this but the amazingness of the simmons picture almost makes up for the wilt picture being from the wrong team
Wilt the Big Dipper
Embiid recently
Embiid has a very good case for this. Wilt was known to chase blocks. When healthy, embiid is one of the best rim protectors in the league every season. His block numbers aren’t high but guys just don’t attempt many shots at the rim when he’s in the game.
Theo Ratliff.
Would have been prolific had he not gotten injured.
Mutumbo
Manute Bol
Embiid.
Spencer hawes
Wilt Chamberlain by a massive margin
Sam Dalembert
Hear me out on this one. Iverson averaged .02 blocks per game as a sixer. Hersey Hawkins .04 per game. Therefore since Hawk was twice as good as Iverson he deserves this.
Yall wilt only played for the Sixers for like 3 years. Dr J was easily the best rim protector. People forget he was more of a rim protector than Moses was
When Dr J retired I think he was either #2 or #3 all time in blocks
