[@dboii9741]

Yea and I bet that dude is gonna shoot like 15 3’s to get it.

[@hellnahowen]

defense ain’t even that bad it’s the offense that’s overpowered

[@TSG_]

Yeah because the NBA sucks now. No one plays defense, and when they do they get called for a foul. Everyone gonna be dropping 80 in the next 5 years. If a lot of these players played in MJ's day they would be mediocre.

[@martinlaszlojavorics2603]

I feel like Giannis is overlooked in this convo the only reason he never got to 60 is because whenever he dropped 40-50 some he played in the low 30 minutes a lot of the time The guy is more than capable of doing so,he just never had to,because he couldn't care less how many points he has but as far as pure capability goes,he belongs in this conversation

[@ethan7307]

I agree, if he goes against a team like rockets, earlier this season he dropped 44 on them in 28 minutes. Definitely overlooked when it comes to scoring since he can’t hit 3s

[@jeppep95]

He isnt offensivly versitile enough

[@unsolve9162]

Well for that very reason you listed (he always gets subbed out when he has high points), he is less likely to get a super high scoring game, so that’s why he isn’t on the list but ur right he’s def capable

[@ethan7307]

@@unsolve9162 if the game was close he prolly would stay in

[@OK-yy6qz]

Nah i don't think so. If Giannis is destroying you at the paint this badly at some point your team will just hog the paint and let the other guys beat you to at least save yourself the embarrassment. Not to mention it's way more fatiguing for centers to have high scoring games there's no reason to risk injury and fatigue by having Giannis play 48 minutes in an easy game just to break the scoring record

[@clean6089]

Rly good list imo. Embiid can have nights where it seems like absolutely no one can stop him, a red hot klay is one of the most scary things in the nba, Mitchell has been one of the best guards in the league for years, and Dame has to carry the blazers every night with volume. I kinda disagree with Luka though, especially with Kyrie now on the team, and also because of his kind of poor conditioning 😅

book never scored 60, 71 yes but not 60, the blowout game where he scored more than 50 this szn was against chicago, he dropped 51, the closest he got to 60 this szn was against nola & it was a close game, dropped 58

[@notaa6992]

If KD isn’t on this list because he’s playing with Booker then Luka shouldn’t be ok this list since he’s playing with Kyrie

[@hektor7798]

Idk if this list was supposed to be only this season but who knows how long Kyrie sticks around.

[@OK-yy6qz]

KD is 34 though Luka is 23 and Kyrie may not even be in the Mavs next season (and if he is who knows for how long)

[@bubbybuckets8524]

Embiid is a better scorer than Luka. Back and forth for scoring lead but Embiid is on better splits across the board

[@Mwayflowerzz]

No he isn't, Luka has to create way more of his shots than Embiid who can get spoonfed looks from Harden and Maxey. Of course Embiid's splits are going to be more efficient, in fact, they're probably not as efficient as they should be considering how much easier it should be for Embiid to score. I'm not saying that Embiid is just a roll or pop man (although almost all his 3s are just him popping), he's very talented in isolation and create his own shot. It's just that when compared to Luka, who outside of maybe LeBron had the hardest situation of any super star to score in, Embiid has it easy. Also if we factor in playoff scoring, this conversation is a complete joke.

[@ryofdoom7416]

Milwaukee averages 104 possessions per game. If they’re playing a team with no big/injured big(s) it’s not impossible that Giannis could score on 40 of them by just driving and dunking. Especially with a few free throws and maybe OT
