Wilt was a better basketball player than Russell. Russell had players like Cousy lead the scoring on his teams.

He literally immediately 3 peated after Cousy retired lol, and won 5 of the next 6 rings.

So what about the finals where the old man Celtics went up against the much more stacked Lakers who had the logo Jerry West averaging 38ppg? Oh yeah wilt averages 12ppg while getting locked up by Bill and losing the finals.
