It's an unbelievable achievement. Dirk joined the league early and was a good scorer for many many seasons around 25+ ppg. And he was 21 years in the league for the same team. Unreal. So deserved that he got at least one ring ❤ (BTW, tnx Lebron 😊)
Yes, and congratulations. Dirk was one of the first truly great non-American players. I always wish the Lakers could have landed him- not only a great player, but a great guy, a model team player, and a credit to the sport.

Oscar Robertson, known mostly as a triple double machine, held on for a really long time as 2nd scorer all time behind Wilt, well into the mid 70s. 10. John Havlicek feels like a forgotten great considering he retired as the 3rd leading scorer all time. 11. Kareem was already a top 5 scorer all time at the end of the 70s and still had basically another decade left to play. 12.

@@maelguiraud3568 just why LBJ was able to pass Lew Alcindor for the scoring record. If Lew was able to go right from high-school he would have another 8k points at least
It's obvious that the game has evolved. If only today's rules were the same back then, and their rules were in today's game these stats would be totally different.
40k points would have happened for sure. Lebron is well on his way to 40k points if he wants, which I hope he does. Lebron will go down in history as having the greatest NBA career of all time (isn't close in my opinion) and it's hard to imagine anyone topping it.

You also have to understand LeBron spent a little under half his career in the slowest paced, lowest scoring era since the NBA/ABA merger. 25 points back in 2000-2010 was way more difficult than 25 points now, and he was doing it efficiently too.
@@alexmotts Do you expect guards to shoot 50% from the field or do you expect that from your big men, heck, for a long time shooting 50% or more from the field was an anomaly, very few did it.

@@principecrociato1085then use true shooting percentage, Kobe is still inefficient as fuck, he is overrated like crazy And before you ask anything, the current leader in Lakers all time true shooting percentage is a guard, called Austin reeves

People who have held the title of most points in nba history: joe fulks george mikan ed macauley dolph schayes bob pettit wilt chamberlain kareem abdul jabbar lebron james
Wilt could have had so much more if he wouldn’t have stopped scoring in his last years. And Kobe could have got so much more. Kobe was benched all the time in his first years and the injury’s that held him back in the last few years costed him a lot of points.
Several players lost points due to one thing or another, e.g., Jordan due to his retirement, Bird due to injuries, etc. Lebron and Jabbar managed to stay healthy, which helps.
It takes like 20 years to reach both LBJ and KAJ the 38k point mark. LBJ could reach the 40k point mark. You probably need to start really early on NBA and stay on winning (more playoffs = more games = more chance for points for like every year)
Im here after he hit 40k and people hate on him saying he only has 40k points because hes been in the league for 19 years but so was wilt and he barely got 31k and that because defense didnt really exist until bill russell came in the mid 60s

And then we find out he was never clean. He was doping the whole time. That’s why he has strong runs then some mediocre games during the middle of the season. Think about it the man takes a pill to save his hair. Don’t you think he’s gonna do the same for his career. The man has no heart.
Update it again 👑
When it hit 1984 I was like oh it’s about to go down
Gotta do an update on this video for current times.
If you played in the NBA for 5 years and it took me 10 years to break your record. Is that record really broken? Asking for a friend.
Yes. Be sure to let your friend know
Who is this from?
Did y’all know who Alex English was before this? He was up there for a while in the 2000s
And now lebron has is the nba top scorer of all time
Wich makes him the second best scorer in the world
Can u do most turnovers
How they do this kind of videos?
Who is here after bron hit 50k 👇
This aged well
Why is there a French flag by Niques name?
Lakers have been the go to palace for greatness
If it was like the 70s if someone scored 15,000 points from their entire career, they would be shocked
Glad to see Wilkins is French 🇫🇷 ouiouilkins !! Thx for the vidéo
Dominique was an American. He was born in a U.S. Military base in France but he was an American by nationality.
Also like the little nationality flag on the left. Nice touch
update this now bro
People who have held the title of most points in nba history:
joe fulks
george mikan
ed macauley
dolph schayes
bob pettit
wilt chamberlain
kareem abdul jabbar
lebron james
at 2023 lebron james is now all time leading points record
All-time flop leader, too. Just goes to show, if you play long enough ...
If Kobe didn’t have that Achilles tear he would have been pretty close to Kareem
Durant would too
If if if.....
Please update
Me patiently waiting for wilt chamberlain😂
Dominique Wilkins is born in Paris but he is not french...
Does this lebron dude still play?
What a dubious honor for Karl
Not too sure how accurate this is seeing as the guy who only averaged 10 points was on the list
What?
In 1946? 🤔
If Jordan never retires and does 20-seasons like the rest, he is around 43,000
Wilt could have had so much more if he wouldn’t have stopped scoring in his last years. And Kobe could have got so much more. Kobe was benched all the time in his first years and the injury’s that held him back in the last few years costed him a lot of points.
Several players lost points due to one thing or another, e.g., Jordan due to his retirement, Bird due to injuries, etc. Lebron and Jabbar managed to stay healthy, which helps.
arizin underated
It takes like 20 years to reach both LBJ and KAJ the 38k point mark. LBJ could reach the 40k point mark.
You probably need to start really early on NBA and stay on winning (more playoffs = more games = more chance for points for like every year)
It’s only regular season points
Also doping helps.
Dolph Schayes, and Bob Pettit to me represent the “leap”
Im here after he hit 40k and people hate on him saying he only has 40k points because hes been in the league for 19 years but so was wilt and he barely got 31k and that because defense didnt really exist until bill russell came in the mid 60s
