Poor team = lots of shooting, this was kobe's 35 ppg year wasn't it, lol. Nowadays all the great scorers are on stacked teams so 30+ ppg isn't really necessary

[StateOfMind12]

I remember three players were scoring 30+ in the '05-'06 season and those 3 players were Lebron, Iverson, and Kobe. A lot of individual players specifically perimeter players score in high volume that season and I'm assuming it had a lot to do with the new rule change of no more hand-checking.

Allen Iverson is sixth all time in PPG....
One of the best at creating for himself and one of the deadliest players in NBA history.
Maybe not such a great team player, maybe not the best lockerroom player (although he was loved by most of his teammates on his Philly teams), but an unbelievable talent with the ball in his hands.

Second highest ppg in the playoffs with 29.73, only behind Michael Jordan as well

AI was the man in his time. If he had a playmaker helping him he would've had his ring.

Lebron just posted 30.3 PPG, so you gotta check those stats...

Lebron's post-season average is 28.5 PPG. Which is pretty impressive aswell.

True that, I failed. He didn't say career average, I thought single season.

[Rolando]

A.I. was a weapon. He constantly attacked and, if I remember correctly, played the whole game with perhaps only a 2-4min break.

Great shooter.
Alltime great ball handler.
Alltime great stamina and endurance.
Alltime great passion for the game.

Never even had a side-kick until Melo. At that point it was too late.

a lot of fools who say he's overrated have amnesia.

33ppg on 45% Fg is sick on any level. you put that up in the NBA, you are an elite player.

[Nick Young]

At 40%

the one chucker to rule all chuckers

A Kobe fan with name Nick Young would know all about that.

AI was a machine, no doubt. I have mad respect for the Answer. Its just a shame he can't come off the bench for someone and get a ring.
