I have his autobiography, entitled "Unstoppable". He was.
Many times I have discussed the topic of who was the greatest basketball player of all time. Obviously, it is impossible to compare players of different eras objectively, however there is one method I feel comes close. That's to take the top player of an era and try to measure how much better they were during their playing days than the second best player of that same era. If you use that method, Mikan was the best ever. He was so much better than anyone else that played when he did that it would be like comparing the difference between Michael Jordan in his prime with a backup guard on a .500 ball club.
