[@juliothom2408]

With respect, Kareem was just as dedicated to longevity. When Kareem went into the NBA he was 4 years older than LBJ was. You can appreciate LBJ’s greatness without disrespecting Kareem’s.

[@fortynights1513]

Kareem’s longevity is certainly impressive.

[@I.am_Groot]

@@fortynights1513 Absolutely. Kareem played until he was 42 and started out in Converse All-Stars during an era where sports medicine was not advanced and load management meant you played 78 games @ 40+ minutes per... All LeBron did is join the Kareem club. He didn't 'pass him up'

[@ray101892]

Also Kareem made a grand total of 1 3 pointer for his entire career while lebron is in the top 10. That means his scoring record was much harder to obtain.

[@ryanlucca5324]

@@ray101892 This doesn't make sense. Kareem shooting more of his shots closer to the basket does not make his scoring harder, actually logic would suggest the opposite. But his career is absolutely insane, especially due to all that he had to go through to play up to 42 and be impactful in that era

[@kingdeedee]

​@@ray101892 that argument really only holds water if LeBron was a good 3 point shooter his whole career. He's been an average at best 3P shooter for most of his career and only shoots 34% which is low enough to actually slow down his career scoring pace slightly vs if he converted more of those 3 point attempts to 2s. Especially since Kareem shot at above 55% FG for much of his career largely from near basket attempts. LeBron's career FG% from inside the arc is also remarkably close to Kareem's as well (56% for Kareem vs 55.4% for LeBron).

[@ianwellhousen8213]

I don’t see any player ever having the same longevity of greatness that LeBron has had. This is a Wayne Gretzky/Jerry Rice record that won’t be broken. Have to remember LeBron could very well play another 2-4 seasons while averaging 20+ppg, only adding on to the record.

[@fortynights1513]

Two other words to you: Load management. Chances are he played more games per season in earlier years of his career than some players today end up playing. Careers may go longer due to medicine and sport science, but due to load management, the record may be tough to beat.

[@jnmc2498]

The amazing thing with the record is not the amount of points… but the longevity. He might even be a top player in the nba as a 40 years old. Unique is the word that describes him as a basketball player. The way he has handled his body so professionally, and with some luck to avoid major career threatening injuries… that to me is what makes this record so impressive.

[@deseanmathieu239]

Thats what makes him the goat

[@Marlowe10100]

And also the minutes he plays at this stage, and how he (Lebron) has managed his minutes all of his career. What I mean, is he NEVER plays 20 minutes in a game, he either plays starter minutes or sits out. He has never been ejected of a game. He is playing a lot of minutes this recent years despite all the losing. For example, Tim Duncan played less than 28 minutes a game since he was 34 and also reduced his shot attempts, he made that because was that was the best for the team. Carmelo Anthony, last year avg 13 pts in 20 minutes, if you gave him all the touches and minutes he wanted, he would score 24 pts a game but of course the team would lose all the time….Well, same is happening with Lebron, he scores a lot and efficiently during the first 3 quarters but has shrunk all season during clutch time. Lakers are in 13th place.

The biggest factor is luck. Not only do you have to be an GOAT level scorer which is hard enough to do on its own, you have to avoid any significant injuries. Do you know how easy it is just to go up for a layup and just land wrong? A potential ankle, achillies, or leg injury could completely change the the trajectory of your career. It's a testament to his dedication to keep himself in shape and I'm not sure if these guys really have it.

[@arrowgantonegreen839]

Just in case anyone was curious (because I was) Wilt Chamberlain broke Bob Pettit's career record of 20,880 points to achieve the record. I remember Kareem setting the record, I just never remembered hearing whose record Wilt broke.

With all the emphasis on load management, I dont see the record being broken by a current player (or even someone entering the league in the next few seasons). But i won't say it'll never be broken. Nobody knows what the league will look like 10, 20, 30 years down the road

[@I.am_Groot]

Good point. Guys now think of 65-70 as a 'full season' and often play closer to 30mpg vs 40 so that alone makes it nearly impossible to see anyone getting to Kareem/LeBron level

Bro, Wilt isn't getting pushed out of the top 10 for scoring all-time for decades. Melo himself wasn't able to break through to the 30K points mark. An extremely small percentage of people will be able to do it going forward. I could see him keeping his position for 25+ years

[@johnpallow6697]

The John Stockton assist record will never be broken

[@HoopEnthusiasts]

Lukas body won’t let him since he is already quite chubby

[@JHouston62]

Keep in mind Bron averages 27 a game for his career, which as of right now is the 5th highest average ever and if he averaged 0.14 more a game he'd have the third highest average, in NBA history. It takes more than just durability to get close to the record

[@mrleemrleeohmrlee]

Right, this is about consistency, but also health and good fortune. Remember, 20 years ago, most people thought it was going to be Karl Malone to break Kareem's record. He had averaged 25-plus in 18 seasons with the Jazz and never missed more than two games a year. Consistency and health. But after one injury-plagued season with the Lakers he abruptly retired, with just over 1400 points behind Kareem, a total that would have been easily eclipsed in any of his seasons with Utah. But it didn't happen, because even if you take care of your body the best you can, you can't control everything.

[@I.am_Groot]

If Karl Malone had the advanced sports medicine/nutrition we have today combined with the much less physical style of play his numbers would go up. Kareem and Malone were 22 year old rookies. LeBron logged over 250 games by the time he turned 22. Now King James is in the club but he didn't 'eclipse' the other guys that were already there

[@SonnyK248]

I love how he said players like Trae don't age will. Players like Lebron aren't supposed to age well either 😅 One of Lebron's main strengths has been his freak athleticism. Those players usually start to fall massively in their mid 30's when the athleticism inevitably stars to wane. Luca though. No chance. He's always been a little bit doughy for an athlete and he's a kid now. Imagine him in his late 30's. He'll end up like Harden. Ridiculous numbers for years and then a big drop off while still being a really good player.

[@ilikecinema33]

This is a long shot but it depends on how long Curry plays. His game doesn’t age. I can see him starting up until year 20 then be like Ray Allen and come off the bench the back end of his career for a championship team. But like I said it’s a long shot.

[@nuffsaid9050]

Lebron's playoffs scoring is the real unbreakable record

[@mh-rl4sz]

In whole NBA history there was no player that was that good for 20 years and it seem Lebron has couple years still on high lavel that mean in 5 years he could still play and make 10-15 points a game what is CRAZY. Luka is great but he already had more injuries than Lebron in 10 years in NBA.

[@SonnyK248]

If Lebron plays until he cant play anymore like Kareem. As in he plays until he's averaging about 12 points a game, which in Lebron's case could be when he's 45, then no one will break his record for a long lone time.

Luka’s usage is the most of anyone in league history, he won’t break LeBron’s record because he won’t last long enough. The reason Kareem’s record lasted so long because of his longevity combined with his talent. It’s the same reason LeBron’s record will last 30-40 years

Jayson Tatum has the Body and the skillset to reach it

[@AvantiMusicNJ]

With the way scoring in the NBA has been prioritized, it’s becoming more possible. The thing we have to take into account is Lebron has sooooo many extra games from deep finals runs. Not only did he barely miss any regular season games he was basically a lock to at least make the ECF for years. He’s got 3 entire extra seasons of basketball if you include playoffs. The longevity + deep playoff runs will be hard to match.

Right now, there is no Player, who is on pace to break the record. Luka is already falling behind. If you check the first five seasons of Luka: He played 330 Games and scored 9.100 points. LeBron through his first five seasons was at 391 games (almost a full "Luka season" ahead) and at 10.689 Points. And LeBron was at age 23 at the end of season 5. He turned 24 in his season 6. Luka turned 24 in the middle of season 5. At this pace, Luka is not even close. He would need to play for too long. And play 75+ Games a season. Which he never did.

LeBron is on track to hit 39,000 points by seasons end isn’t he? Say 25 points and 20 points the following two seasons playing 70 games per. That’ll take him to around 42,000+ points at 40 years old. Would take something or someone phenomenal to crack that. Start young take advantage of the three ball and all other offensive minded advantages his career will have over LeBrons and then still remain healthy, durable and elite for ~20 years - that’s asking quite a lot. My thought is if guys like Beal can get $50m per season contracts and guys like Lillard can get $60m today - this future superstar likely to get $100m at some point in their career - and at that value teams will be super careful with their asset. This could counter many favourable terms this guy would have over LeBron. Good luck to whoever it could be and anyone that wants to try for it.

Many players can have a good 10-15 year career. To break lebron’s record, a player will need a 23-25 years career playing and scoring at a star level player with minimal injuries and hope nba lockouts and pandemics don’t have to much impact. This is why the record is so hard to break.

LeBron is a genetic specimen and likely never to be replicated again. Jayson Tatum, Paolo Banchero, Anthony Edwards, and maybe Ja Morant would be players that’ll keep getting buckets-but durability is really going to be the deciding factor.

Luka is playing untill 30 and adio

[@thrbrandao]

Crazy to think that Kareem only had one 3-pointer in his entire career

[@iBladeSwifx]

Nobody will beat it in the League rn. Luka won't be playing in his 40s like Dirk.

[@eyemunchained8968]

So according to pass history... Luka will be in a Lakers uniform if and when he breaks the record

[@phenomito]

edwards isnt candidate to me bcs he isnt disciplined. he wont be able to play long enough and honestly i dont see luka there either tbh

[@philll.1358]

Anthony Edwards wont make it unless he actually starts eatting as healthy and taking car of his body to a much higher degree. His athleticism will wayne in his late 30s which will slow him down because unhealthy habits catch up with age. Trae Young wont make because as you said hes too small of a guard that relies on swiftness. He may have a good start and peak but will fall off probably in his early- mid 30s. Hes also occassional very inefficeint Luka is the only one that has a shot becayse he style of play is slow enough to work through old age. But hes gaining a lot of mileage on his legs early which will test his durability as he gets older.

If You can turd down the injuries like in 2K. KD would be that guy

[@juwanrigby1924]

Really? I mean LeBron isn’t showing signs of slowing down significantly and how can we trust Luka for 1. being in shape 2. Health
