With players like Walker, Jones, Billy Cunningham and Luke Jackson surrounding Chamberlain, the 1966-67 Sixers had an overwhelming amount of firepower. They had the right coach in Hannum, who was firm with his players when necessary. And they had all the requisite motivation after being the bridesmaid for so many years. Greer told the Philadelphia Daily News, “We had everything. We knew we were going to win most of our games — it was just a matter of by how much.” Those Sixers went 68-13 in the regular season, which was then an NBA record. They triumphantly dethroned Boston in five games and then still had to face the tricky task of the NBA Finals against Rick Barry’s and Nate Thurmond’s San Francisco Warriors. Philly would go on to win in six games, and Greer led the Sixers with 27.7 points per game during the postseason.
