The apologetic quote by West was stated 20 years ago in 2003. Why is this being written about now?

This subreddit wants Bill Russell to not be considered a top-10 all time player because he played against grandmas and amputees but somehow Wilt is a top-10 player because the game of basketball is played to amass stats, not win games.
