Luka Doncic has the physique of a pastry chef. Unless he starts taking care of his body the same way Lebron did throughout his career, Luka will be lucky to make it to 30,000 points.
This. I hope the kid grows up and start to man up. Take things seriously and dont waste his monstrous gift.
Same thing I been saying...dude body ain't gon hold up
That makes me think he’ll last longer though because he doesn’t rely on super physical abilities. Usually players that rely on their athletics don’t have super long careers guys like MJ, LeBron, and Karl Malone are all outliers who managed to still be elite into their mid thirties.
@@tapeab1e how many non athletic people lasted that long. He not good enough of a shooter to just rely on that an when he can no longer get by folks he in trouble. Dirk wasn't athletic but he tall tho. Everyone in the top 10 are athletic except for dirk an maybe Moses Malone.
Luka won’t be playing for 20 years at peak level promise you that
To remain at peak for 20 yrs is truly truly amazing . You are great Lebron
As impressive as Lebron's regular season scoring record is, his regular season + playoffs point total or hell even just his playoff scoring alone is on a whole different level. That is something that truly may never fall. For that to be broken, someone would have to consistently play in the finals for the majority of their career.
Yeah, exactly. People don't talk as much about his playoff totals.....those are also records that will never be broken
When you on a team good enough to go deep into the playoffs it helps
@@oneillt100take him off all those teams they barley or don’t even make the playoffs though so there u go
@@And.One.Hoops1 that's because MJs playoff stats are more impressive.
@@cman04 they aren’t but you do you
Incredible accomplishment. Lebron will have generated 70,000+ points counting his assists. GOAT 🐐
and thats the bare minimum because its no way to gauage how many of those assists were 3pts lol
Not quite
His accolades are not that good compared to Kareem and MJ 🤷♂️
@@jorgedelgado8177 It actually is bud. Most of those two better accolades are team achievements - much like with Bill. And the thing with the accolades debate is it's dumbing down the conversation. LeBron is a swiss army knife that does everything and anything. If you do everything, then it's almost impossible to be a leader at something. He's not a specialist yet when it comes to counting stats he's up there with everybody - fuck he's at the apex now.
@@chickenoil8663 Actually they aren't, Jordan has more accolades period and both Jordan and Kareem have better records. Lebron is a faulty swiss army knife. Doesn't play defense, misses games, free throw percentage is terrible. Being able to run a marathon doesn't make you the fastest in a race and thats a fact. Lebron played longer yes, cause Jordan didn't have to, 2 three peats, 10 scoring title, 1 DPY award come on. Jordan can do everything Lebron does and had the mentality and drive to win. Lebron calls himself the goat the world calls MJ the Goat and that is the difference.
Let's be real with this one. We're probably not going to see another physical athlete like Lebron with the disipline to workout and being healthy in our lifetime in the NBA. This is one record that can only be broken if the NBA makes adjustments to make it possible to be broken.
Nothing but facts stated OP
There will be adjustments. Bron has broken Kareem's record due to the same adjustments in the game. And it's not like NBA made adjusment so that Kareem's record could be broken. It's the natural evolution of the game. It's not a demerit to the next one who will break the record, the same way it's not a demerit that lebron benefitted from the changes for several decades.
@@gregrodrigueziii8075 the changes of the league also worked against him for the first half of his career. He almost never gets credit for being one of the best scorers in the slowest era of basketball since the shot clock despite the fact that someone like Kobe does. He played in half of the 30 lowest-pace seasons ever, while Kareem played in 20 of the 30 highest, yet LeBron still managed this record and will have completely shattered it by the time he retires.
@@BlueGrovyle Bron do gets the credit as its universaly accepted that he is one of the greatest in basketball. He did play in one of the slowest era, but he also played in an era where he can jack up 3's and and era with undersized front court. You see all this "this era has more advantage /disadvatage" talk has always been irrelevant, as players adjust in their own era. You cant give demerit or credit to a player for being born in an era, so it all even out in the end.
Players play their era, you cant judge them for an era that have never existed in their time. Thats why the most fair is always judge them based on era they played in and not cross reference to an era they will never play in. How far is person from the norm in their time.
Bron not being given enough credit is a myth, man is considered by most as the 2nd greatest player ever. That is a very high compliment.
thats what they said about kareem
Another King James record that will never be broken is his consecutive games with at least 10 points scored. He has currently scored at least 10 points in 1140 straight games (and counting). Think about that for a minute.......that is almost 14 straight seasons of never scoring under 10 points in any game he has played. That is mind boggling and will never be touched. Whether you like LeBron James or not, appreciate what you are witnessing because you will never see it again.
This fact is underlooked by lots of people
It's really a shame for Lebron's legacy that these past 3 Laker's seasons have been pretty bad, it's one of the biggest topics you can attack him on during a GOAT debate. His play in the past 3 years though is astounding and it's mind-boggling when you factor in his age. It's very possible that we will never see a player of Lebron's build, with Lebron's durability and Lebron's skillset play again. The GOAT debate will go on forever, but the debate on him being one of the top 2 of all time can not be disputed.
2020-21 LeBron was MVP favorite when lakers 28-14 (AD had been injured for a month) and also top5 DPOY before Solomon hill dove into his ankle and ruined lakers championship odds (favorite).
This year Lakers are +3 when he’s on the court (similar net rating to bucks) and -7 when LeBron off court (worse then Hornets)!
Ummm…I’ve got LeBron at 2, but KAJ could easily be it. LeBron’s 2nd place is disputable
@@johnnyblingg not even close to disputable lebron is either 1 or 2. not even a debate on if MJ and Lebron are top 2. They are the top and will stay that way for a long time
@@ariici Provided no evidence, just more opinion.
@@johnnyblingg you provided no evidence tf you talking about
What if LeBron continues to play at the pace he is currently playing at for another 3 or 4 years? That will be a tough record to break.
Some people point to LBJ’s longevity as a weakness in the GOAT debate, that it took him 20 years to do what Jordan did in 15, but you make a great case for why LBJ’s longevity is PART of his greatness. LBJ is one of the two greatest of all time; the fact that his greatness takes a different from than MJ’s is proof of that. Don’t knock him for being great on his own terms.
@marcblanc3432 What took LBJ 20 years to do what Jordan did in 15 ??????
@@showofhands8214 Rings are A team accomplishment, DPOY & SCORING TITTLES are jordan's accomplishments.
With those scoring tittles mj couldn't get that all time record, so LBJ has the all time scoring record and he's fourth in assists.
Lebron = GOAT = NEW metric of gold standard = Continuous Substance Excellence = Perfect On & Off the court performance, hunger, and spirit.
LeBron = Self-proclaimed GOAT = Worst finals record 4 - 6 = Stat pad in order to break records = only player to experience 2 finals sweep (GSW and Spurs) = 2 times bronze medalist in the Olympics = Turn over king = 20 years of consecutive flopping! Theres the stat of the goat
@@vibewithkeppin3006 I'm not trying to convince the naysayers, thank god we have freedom of speech.

@@vibewithkeppin3006 lol Forgot first to comeback from a 3-1 deficit, First to win a championship for Cleveland, First to lead team in all categories while also winning the NBA Championship, First to win on 3 multiple teams, First to exceed expectation from High School right out the gate, First to achieve Billionaire status then any other NBA player, First to reach 5,000-20,000-30,000 points not to bad as a pass first kind of guy ;) There a lot more but stat's doesn't matter right. You act as if other GOATS don't have flaws.
The fact that players have to AVERAGE 30ppg for 14 SEASONS just to pass him is unreal.
Absolutely mind boggling
Playing every game!
That is why MJ would have been the scoring leader if he never retired. He average 30.1 ppg for 15 seasons. Higher than Lebron.
@@cman04 Actually if you calculate the math on his 10 years when he won the scoring title and add the last 5 years total and you have 35,282 I highly doubt even if he continued to play that he would have gotten the record. He averaged 20 points per game towards the later part of his career.
@@TV-fx9ui you mean when he was 40 and older than Lebron? Even with his 20pt average, he still has the highest PPG average in 15 seasons at 30.1 - higher than Lebron. So no, you can't assume a decline, because he retired during his peak...twice. Not to mention that he played in the defensive era. No way in heck that Lebron would average what he has averaged if he played in the 90s.
A true goat of the game. Unbelievable
What's crazy is thinking about how many more points he would have at this point if he wasn't such a great and willing passer
This. Lebron has said it himself that he could have lead the league in scoring every year if he cared about scoring. I think he could have been averaging 30+ ppg since his 2nd season if he wanted to.
@@ge8198
Yeah I know right, I could only imagine if he had that mentality that it's all about me getting mine and not getting teammates involved how far he would be putting this record out of reach. I still think it's going to be tough for someone to beat even though we don't know when LeBron will hang it up. I just hope he stays on this path and keeps avoiding father time because I've had a lot of fun over the years watching him play 👌
Hahahahaa
I don't think we can say definitively that it won't be broken. Because there still is a chance that another elite scorer with insane durability and longevity will play in the NBA. It probably won't be broken anytime soon, but I feel like eventually it'll fall, though it'll definitely take a long time, longer than it took to surpass kareem
I'm 27 and I can bet one of my balls that it won't be broken in my lifetime.
I'm sure there is a good chance that it will be broken at some point. With fitness, health, and medical technology advancements, especially stuff like reverse aging, players in 20-30 years will have a wild advantage over players now.
@@christianmorningstar5098 it will be broken within the next 20 years unless they change the rules to make it a more defensive oriented league. The league is becoming more and more offensive friendly and the only way I don’t see someone breaking it will be if Lebron plays into his 50s and get to like 50k points. Either way that record doesn’t really matter or changes anything especially when you had players the spent half of their careers or all of their careers without a three point line and now even a terrible shooter like lebron is chucking up 8-9 3s per game. It’s literally going to get to the point where it will be like a sharpshooter(similar to 2k my player) that will literally only shoot 3s and will shoot about 15-20 per game
@@samkellman Nah, players nowadays get injured easily. I mean some of them are already load managing.
@@zacheryseymour7297you wrote all that when you could’ve saved everyone’s time (your own included) by just saying : “I’m dumb and don’t know basketball”
This was a great watch. Thank you.
...there is nobody right now who`ll be able to come close. kareem played 80 games in his 19th season, lebron had is second highest scoring avg in his 20th season. and lebron will pass the 40,000 points mark, which looks insane even writing it. thats like the 11 nba chips by bill russell in which it requires greatness over a long period of time, and not just for 1 season (like avg a triple double...)...👏👑
Great comparison! It will be as hard as Bill Russell record
Bill Russel's 11 chips arent going to be broken only because he played in a league with 8 teams.
I absolutely loved this video. It put a lot of things into perspective. Hate him or love him, you have to admit what LeBron is doing is admirable and amazing to see.
Pretty sure some stats were shown by Shannon sharpe saying: Someone would have to play over 90% of all games averaging 40+ points a game to beat lebrons record. For 20+ years straight. Madness! KAJ averaged this and played 80-85% of all games/minutes played Lebron beat the record by playing 90% of them. In any game/sport that is ridiculous!
Luka dont pass the ball and ball hog. With all the pass Lebron did, it makes this accomplishment even more insane. It like as if Magic Johnson had the most points in the league history. Insane.
Lol Luka has way more triple doubles at his age than LeBron did. You're argument is hilariously invalid.
@@joshuacalvert4917 and what is your point? Russel Westbrook also had a bunch of triple doubles, does that equal efficiency or an avid passer? Many stats can account for triple double. Luka is an extreme ball hogger, no wonder he has triple doubles. Ask Russel Brunson and Kristaps Porzingis why they left Dallas.
Luka is not a ball hog, it's just his team sucks. Now with Kyrie he'll drop his usage.
@@RafitoOoOhahaha u will learn the truth in the playoffs. Luka is a iso player 😂 u will see it’s not enough.
@@RafitoOoO he lost to the timberwolves with kyrie LMFAOOO
For me, LeBron became the 🐐 when three HOF'ers went and grabbed a fourth because -- to quote the best defender in the group -- "WE NEED YOU!" (to beat LeBron). That said, this scoring title just solidifies his status at the top of the game.
on that note,.. didnt lebron also needed those hof caliber players to win him some chips?
@@NikoStark1 lebron had more all stars on his team than anyone ever? When? Who were they? I hope you're talking about the team that had d wade, d rose, and IT because if you are, I'm going to send you a screenshot of their ppg that season alongside the avg. ppg. of an all star that year.
@@uhlechxzs961 you're missing the point. Draymond begged KD to come to Oakland so they could beat Lebron together. And KD did it after he was one win away from the NBA finals with Russ. These are Google-able facts.
@@bryantbest8372 werent the warriors already champions before kd? and who did they beat? wasnt it lebron?
@@NikoStark1 You can't lose finals that you never even made it to. The flaw in that argument is that Mike played 15 seasons. Even if you exclude the 2 with the Wizards (which you shouldn’t) because they missed the playoffs, that still leaves 13 seasons.... meaning seven times he failed to even REACH the finals. LOL
Great video! I think as the game moves forward there will be more injuries with longer stretches of time to heal those injuries. Not to mention load manamgement and players not wanting to play to pressure a trade. In short games played will be the metric that keeps the record from being broken.
Very professional type channel. Def deserves more subs
Thank you! Really appreciate that 🙏
The hard part about breaking the record:
- Have to play 20 years
- Have to be performing at all star level for those 20 years
If a player can do those two, the record will be broken. More points are being scored in the NBA than ever before, which is something that started booming in the later parts of LJ's career.
The way people play now with load management and everyone getting constantly injured I don’t see this record being broken ever, but perhaps with the way 3 the point era is but who knows
You got to love it! And give king a big respect! 🎉long live the king!
There are multiple factors that make it very hard to beat (and I do not see any current player breakink it):
1) Lebron came out HS already putting +20 as a 18years old. Even the most talent guy will come at 19 or 20 it is very hard to have this kind of impact.
2) This one is the most absurd to me: playing 90% of the games available for that long. Players can't stay health playing like that. Eventually you will get hurt. You gotta have a very unique kind of body and an absurd amour of luck, because injuries just happen.
3) This one is equally absurd as the previous: there are few players able to sustain this average for a long streatch. Putting 27 points for 8 seasons demands a very rare talent. Putting this for 20? Man... this is insane.
If the game changes for 14s clock and 4 points or somenthing like that, having much more points in the game and becoming easy to have seasons like Wilt, ok, maybe someone not born can have a chance. But I do not see this happen.
Lebron stamina, durability, dna, talent, little luck as well, made this record too unreacleable. The dude will easily beats the all time seasons played record (by Vince) playing all of the in an absurd level. We could say he can play until he is 44 and even in his last 3 or 4 seasons he would put 15ppg. But I believe Lebron will keep playing just if he can do it in the highest level (and I think he can do it for more 3 years).
Maybe Luka can come close but I cant see anyone else currently in the league having a chance
big lebron fan here , and i’m sad to say to that eventually, maybe not in this lifetime, but eventually maybe in 100 years or 200 years , someone will break this record , no matter how many years it takes the nba is here to stay. the day will come
This is a great video 😀
Thanks! Glad you liked it 🙏
People said noone would ever average a trpl-dbl again. People said noone would ever break Kareem's scoring record. At this point, I'll never say never. However, I'll say that someone breaking this record, whatever it ends up being, is highly unlikely.
Actually, I will say never on Wilt's 100 points.
There will still be countless wilt records in the year 3062

@@kingrat738 Nah, he shot 50% from the foul line. Trash. Worse than Shaq. The GOAT can't be trash at anything. #LeGOAT.

Thanks!
The fact LeBron is a pass first player makes this even more mind boggling
hes not a pass first player, a pass first player is like, stockton, jason kidd, steve nash, magic, lebron is a insane scorer with insane playmaking/assisting
LeBron will play at an elite level for another 3-4 years.. and then his decline will be another 5 years. he could honestly get 50 000 points.
I think we all get too caught up in the GOAT debate. I mean let’s be real and just enjoy greatness. This man is in the twilight of his career and given us all amazing highlights, spectacular finals narratives, battled with some of the best modern nba players and won a finals down 3-1 against the best NBA team of all time (record wise). Man is and always will be a legend and people who can’t see that are either old heads or Curry stans
This will end up being Wilt 100 point game unbeatable nobody will ever beat it
All-time leader in all-star game points as well. Although it’s an exhibition game, it’s still his record nonetheless.
Record stood for 38 yrs not 34... kareem broke wilt's in april 1984. Lebron was born dec 30 1984.
Insane
I expect LeBron to get past 40K and that should be enough to keep the record until Androids play or they change the rules to allow 10 point shots or both. If he plays another 100 games it will be very tough. He has more impressive records thou. His record for consecutive double digit games which is well over 1100 now is unreal. It took a great deal of dedication, skill and more than anything LUCK to get that far. It will never be passed.
Such a good video
🙏🙏
Kareem's record was said to be unbreakable. Someone someday will break Lebron's.
I don’t know man, this one is different, he’s gonna pass 40K easily
This must be Skip Bayless' burner account 😅😂
Doubtful, The amount of years you'd have to play at an elite level is just Unrealistic, Lebron is a physical specimen like no other we've ever seen so it'll take a really Really unbelievable athlete to do it
Doubt it ngl. Someone would have to average 30 points a game for 16 years without ever missing a game.
@@IamDMV kareem wasn't an unbelievable athlete
G.O.A.T. James
Nice and I agree with most of your points but you have to consider that Kareems record only could have been broken because of rule changes. With that in mind I say, of course it's possible the new record could be broken sometime. What if the 4-point-line comes? What if the NBA expands and we get more games? What if they make scoring even easier and Luka or someone else averages 40 for multiple seasons? And by the way, of course has LeBron declined: For example, he "only" scored under 1.500 points per season for the last 5 years compared to 2000 points per year the 5 previous years...
While I don't think it is completely impossible for the record to be beat, I think I put LeBron's record into the Stockton assist record category, meaning it is not going to be beat in my lifetime. I'm 40. I do not think there is a single person in the league who could beat the record. The closest is probably Giannis or Luka, but both started in the NBA a year+ older than LeBron when he started. I don't think either will have the longevity. Whoever potentially does it will need to be drafted young, be immediately impactful, score 25-30 points per game for 20+ years while not missing a significant number of games to injury. Maybe medical science gets us there but it took 40 years for someone to beat Kareem. Lebron will probably beat Kareem by a few thousand points. I expect it will be at least another 40 before someone beats LeBron. I don't think I'm going to make it that long.
hopefully you do
I shed a tear while watching this
KING👑
Always first my man! Appreciate it brother!
I GOT NO WORDS
thats what people first said about kareem's record too and yet here we are
Luka already moves and plays like he's 40, so he doesn't have to adapt much when he's actually 40
lebron, ronaldo, messi, and many of other legendary athletes that I don't know of will probably stand very very long at those records.
Simple answer , no one coming out of HS young enough to break this records. Very possible to break. Just come out of HS and play 20 years consistently
I think Luka is the only one who has a chance to catch him. I also feel like people forget lebron is also the leading playoff scorer of all time. i think it's the combined record that no one is touching. by the time he retires it will likely be 50K
if the games in a season in the NBA drops to 72 or whatever they were talking about then it'll definitely never get broken
The thumbnail got me like 🤔
Is that the back of his head?
The more you learn about it the in crazy it feels
I truly believe unless LeBron retires bc he wants to be able to own Vegas/Seattle teams he will end up somewhere between 45k-50k points! He already has 7631 playoff points when 2nd place MJ has 5987! That’s a nearly 22% increase and it will prob go up above 8k!
If he has 22% more points regular season then Kareem that would be 46,836 points which will be nearly impossible to break!
It really comes down to how many years he wants to play! Getting 50k would be so ill!
Haters crying longevity when he’s essentially tied for 3rd in career POINTS PER GAME with Eligin Baylor and Durant!
that isn't as impressive as the fact that MJ is second with less seasons played. Higher scoring % and better playoff stats.
The amount of points scored in the game today, this record will be broken.
If recent years have taught us anything. It’s never say never
Everything comes down to load management. Yes, players maybe scoring more now than ever, but most of them are also skipping a percentage of the regular season, so their totals get a hit because of it. It ain't impossible yet, but if Lebron puts 5 o 6k more points to it, damn is gonna be pretty hard to be broken.
given how inflated the stats are in modern nba,.. and how offense oriented the league is,.. the scoring title will be broken in a foreseeable future,...
unless ocors the league decides to allow a very tight and physical game play to prevent that from happening,..
They scoring just as much as the 80’s & 60’s lol
Im just waiting for Jordan fans to talk about how Jordan walked on water during his playing days...oh and never lost a game..lol
Actually what's more baffling to me is Lebron's style of play was never meant to last this long. He is primarily a slasher majority of his career and lacks elite jumpshot. History would tell us that those type of players have shorter primes because of injuries and wear and tear. Granted he can now hit midrange and even 3s, but still not above league average level. I really think, his biggest weapon is his basketball IQ. It enabled him to phase himself, play smart and even adjust to the changing style of play of the NBA. He is really a freak of basketball.
LeBron has the "Most points scored on a floor that has the NBA logo on it" meaning regular season, playoffs, and All-Star games all COMBINED.
Absolutely never be broken because this young generation superstars like Luka Morant Zion ATC... Is all of that is front of injuries that was this is never be broken again
lebron scored the most points ever reg season + playoffs months ago but surprised people gave it 0 attention. but hell we are here now.
We all know why Lebron plays so long. For stats and being in the GOAT debate. Longevity King 👑!!
King LeBron James all time sourcing Record 20 season 🙌 👏 👌 💪 🔥
LeBron James is a freak of nature..he is a very strong player at 38 years old 🧓 he average 30 points per game that record will be over 42.000 before LeBron James retired...and injuries are part of anyone trying to come close to that record
Well, its always impossible till it goes on and fcking happens
KD is probably the closest to coming close to LeBron but is way too injury prone
Exactly
At this point, KD needs to play 435 games and avg 27 ppg just to surpass Kareem. LeBron is still playing, and will add significant numbers to that record. Imagine that. MJ is still the Goat to many people but that is more arguable today than ever before because LeBron has reached new heights that no one has ever been to. And yet, we are not yet talking about his playoffs totals which are off the charts.
kd aint doing shit even if didnt miss a year
See y’all in 2050 when some 5th grader breaks it lol
Its already very difficult for pure scorers to break his record now imagine someone breaking his 30k 10k 10k too.. He's also gonna be the first one to get 40k 10k 10k by the time he retires
Because There's Only 1 LeGOAT 😤👑🐐💯🏀🔥
What’s crazy is if KD keeps a high average for the next 5 years he will be right there, but that would be if Lebron retired this year and didn’t play for the next 5 years.
Did they actually stop the game to recognize the feat? Or did a team take a timeout?
Ain’t trying to meat ride or nothing but this dude on record spends like millions of dollars in the offseason to stay at his physical peak, and (God forbid) never really had a season ending injury. To remain consistent for so long especially breaking the record in fewer games than Kareem and still adding on to it everyday, yeah this won’t be broken. At least not in our lifetime.
Luka is young in age/years not in athletic body. Still a joy to watch
Never say never . It can be broken as the league gets more focused on the three esp the new generation
I'm sure Nike will make a shoe to commemorate this.
No doubt in my mind
Maybe one day it’ll be broken, but I don’t see it happening within our lifetimes at all
The league has too much parity for it to be broken at any point in the near future. You know how many deep playoff runs/finals runs you gotta have to come close to that??? Regular season monsters won't cut it
Uhm...Lebron's scoring record has nothing to do with playoffs PTS, it's not included
Great video!!
I do think you are forgetting one big thing and that is lebrons amount off assist! He is a pass first player and still broke the record for all time scorer in nba.
All the other names on the scoring list are killers, who only have on there mind to score the Ball in the basket! Thats what what makes lebron the greatest off all time for me😎🐐🐐
Aren’t they also talking about shortening the 82 games per season down as well?
Yeah, but I don't see that happening
Whats the average ppg?
If you wanna get technical, what he recently broke was the regular season alone. And yes, I am aware that LeBron is the current playoff scoring record aswell
Nobody will beat it only because the NBA doesn’t allow people to play straight out of high school anymore.
Thats 3-4 extra years of scoring for most players
There will be a dude build like Giannis dominating the zone and behind the line like curry. If this dude shows up the record will be broken.
But After that you need some changes again in the game, like the raining threes from now a days, to break that record
All these records, and yet people forget LeBron is a natural lefty. Imagine if he plays with his dominant hand.
How was it not supposed to be broken? Lol. Player entitlement, offensive Era, worse defense, more 3s....it should be broken. Not taking anything away from lebron love the guy. But it should be broken now more than ever. And yes, it will happen again.
The person that will break the record most likely isn’t born yet . It would take someone that’s so NBA ready at a young age and durable enough to adapt to different eras . Might take 60+ years for it to happen
4 point line👀👀👀
It would take a Jordan level scoring career with no injuries or time off or a 2 decade plus career to be broken.
Well, unless they change the rules again to make scoring easier.
So we often underestimate the advances of medical science. Scientist are currently reversing the aging of mice in labs…those same scientists hope to one day bring that to human trials. Crazy stuff. 40 or 50 years from now we might just have 50 year olds playing high level basketball. 😂
Well, we could never know.
Mice is a good testament of success in science, but to do it on humans may take more year, if not centuries. Also, I doubt that it will be just biological enhancements, it will also be the marriage of machines and humans which is actually cheating and make Lebron's feat much more amazing.
You forgot about one player who might break this record... Im talking about Ben Simmons ofc 😁
😂😂
The almighty triple-single himself 😂
If Ben Simmons continue his average for this year, he will only need to play the next 55 seasons to break the record. Wow. 🤣
Yes it will.
Kids will go to the nba right of elementary school, theyll days many games off and play like 40yrs & have allstar teammates. On the real though it will be broken a few times but there will only be 1 GOAT.

All you gotta do play more, hit more freethrows, play less defense, be on better super team & load manage more. Easy
Basically gotta double the length it took to break Kareem’s. But even in 76 years I still don’t think it will had happen.
The way the game is played now it will not last like it was with Kareem. Before 40 to 60 or 70pts are being celebrated but now it's becoming a norm.
Teams scoring 130-140 are being celebrated, but now it's becoming a norm.
LeBron got quantity/volume but sadly his numbers didn't translate to winning. Bron got 40% win rate in 10 trips, and got 20% win rate all throughout his 20year career on trying to win the chip.
Now that the NBA is zero defense and Load Management is a thing, this record will only hold for a few years. Scoring in the NBA is as easy as it has ever been and it is supper easy to stay healthy when you aren't expected to play back to back games anymore.
Never say never. These dudes are getting pretty good at shooting 3s.
There is no defense in todays NBA, and 3 pointers are far more common now, all that is needed is one player who refuses the load management non sense, and it will be broken
Durant won't catch him but be interesting to see if he can also bypass kareem. doubt it. nevertheless like lebron, he has also averaged more than 25 every single season except his rookie year. amazing stats, they're the only 2 in history i think.
Broke the scoring record but Mike Muscala decided to take over this game 😭😭😭
Man that was crazy, can’t believe they still lost
Yo! Muscala was killin' this game. Looked like he made the difference to me when I checked the box score.
@@And.One.Hoops1 the team clearly did not care to win the game.
Rt if the nba doesn’t take HS players again… it will never be BROKEN
