6,337 to 5,987: An unbreakable record?

[TheCorporation]

No one will ever pass LeBron's post season points scored:



If 10 Finals, super longevity Kareem couldn't do it
If 6 Finals, I lost three times in first round MJ couldn't do it
If MDE Shaq couldn't do it
If most skilled Kobe scoring assassin couldn't do it

Only one man passed them all

King GOAT James #1

#2 Jordan
#3 Kareem

As it should be

[kennethgriffen]

the thing is ...this actually makes lebron look worse


it just shows how he's had more opportunities than anyone and only has 3 rings to show for it with tons of controversy surrounding them



its like someone bragging about playing in 5 times as many poker tournaments to win half as many bracelets

These are such joke records if you know the history....luckily most dont so espn gets away with it.

You used to get a first round bye as a top seed....later you played a best of 3 first round...then best of 5. Go back far enough there was no first round at all.

Of course someone who played his whole career with more available playoff games would lead in total points.

They changed the rule to 4 seven game series in like 2003 or 2004. Every playoffs of his career had the extra games in the first round and compared to Kareem entire extra rounds since Kareem had the top seed bye. Kareem led a team to a title with 14 total playoff games. Lebron played 22 and lost last year.

You cant compare totals if you even halfway investigate the reasons for them.

Did I stutter? No one will ever pass LeBron's post season points scored.

Let's even give your boy Kareem another 25 points at 25 extra games for 500 extra.

Guess what? LeBron still has more.

That's cool and all, but LeBron has like 700 more points in only 2 more games played. So, unless Cap is capable of averaging 350 PPG in 2 games, you point is moot.

Hell, LeBron can spot EVERY player in league history 500 more points (25 points per game at 25 additional games) and he would still be #1

Let's just pretend Jordan didn't lose in the 1st round three times at 1-9

lebron won't even make the playoffs this year and will get bounced in the first round the next 4 years if he manages to

durant already nearly has 4000 playoff points and is only 29 years old.


he'll f*cking destroy lebrons record you absolute f@cking moron

1970 playoffs, there was no 1st round. 4 or 5 games less compared to format LeBron has been playing in. Kareem averaged 35.2 ppg.
1971 playoffs, again no 1st round. 4 or 5 games less. Kareem's ppg 26.6.
1972 playoffs, again no 1st round. 4 or 5 games less. 28.7 ppg.
1973 playoffs, again no 1st round. 4 or 5 games less. 22.8 ppg.
1974 playoffs, again no 1st round. 4 or 5 games less. 32.2 ppg.
1977 playoffs, bo3 1st round but top teams let pass by. 4 or 5 games less. 34.6 ppg.
1978 playoffs, bo3 1st round. The Lakers lost by 1-2. At least 2 games less. 27.0 ppg.
1979 playoffs, bo3 1st round. At least 2 games less again. 28.5 ppg.
1980 playoffs, bo3 1st round, top teams let pass by. 4 or 5 games less. 31.9 ppg.
1981 playoffs, bo3 1st round. The Lakers lost by 1-2. At least 2 games less. 26.7 ppg.
1982 playoffs, bo3 1st round, top teams let pass by. 4 or 5 games less. 20.4 ppg.
1983 playoffs, bo3 1st round, top teams let pass by. 4 or 5 games less. 27.1 ppg.
1984 playoffs, finally everyone plays 1st round but bo3. 1 game less. 23.9 ppg.
1985 playoffs, bo3 1st round. 1 game less. 21.9 ppg.
1986 playoffs, bo3 1st round. 1 game less. 25.9 ppg.

Assuming he kept his averages over games didn't occur;
1970; somewhere between 140 (4 games possibility) - 175 (5 games possibility)
1971; somewhere between 106-133
1972; somewhere between 114-143
1973; somewhere between 91-114 114
1974; somewhere between 129-161
1977; somewhere between 138-173
1978; somewhere between 50-60
1979; somewhere between 55-60
1980; somewhere between 125-160
1981; somewhere between 50-55
1982; somewhere between 81-102
1983; somewhere between 108-135
1984; somewhere between 22-28
1985; somewhere between 20-24
1986; somewhere between 24-28

If you take every lesser possible number of games, he could have nearly 1250 points more.

This comment is just blatantly ignore his point.

[jstern]

For someone to pass it, they have to be the best player in the league while playing in an all time level weak conference. Thus deeper and deeper playoff runs.

But I will respect Lebron's more because the rules have kept getting softer and softer and so future players will score more points on even easier buckets, despite being less talented.

So multiple people, even less talented ones might even be able to break them.

Bron stans are incapable of this.

Are you high, dude? You just cannot extrapolate like that.

LeBron over the past 4 Finals has been averaging 33/12/9/2/1 on 48% vs the Warriors. Are they "all time level weak" as well?


Man, only when it comes to LeBron do records not count, because " ".

[TheCorporation]

lebron won't even make the playoffs this year and will get bounced in the first round the next 4 years if he manages to

durant already nearly has 4000 playoff points and is only 29 years old.


he'll f*cking destroy lebrons record you absolute f@cking moron

He will definitely destroy Kobe's record and push 12be out of the top 12. Yikes

Are you okay?

Precisely my point. When MJ had all the records it was "0mg!!!1!" But now that he is being passed up it's "Nah, who cares lol"

Missed this gem, KD is at ~3,600 and is 30 and 6 months, you autistic dweeb. For him to pass LeBron, he would need to make the Finals and average 28.8 PPG when he's like 35 years old. Again, this is assuming that LeBron never makes the PO's again in his career.

[Marchesk]

All this means is that Lebron played in more playoff games.
