    Default Who's the next player to end up Top 10 all time in points and assists?

    Harden/Westbrook/Giannis/Simmons?

    Great longevity...

    But Magic averaged 5 more assists per game and MJ averaged 5 more points per game, so nobody cares

    Per game is the real record and the real measure of how much someone dominates games..

    Heck, if lebron played long enough, he'd pass curry in threes.. but again, no one would care

    But has anyone averaged MORE points and assists than LeBron?


    Like Jordan got more points, but he only averaged 4 rebounds and 2 assists to compensate

    Lebron might be the only guy to average 7 rpg and 7 apg for a CAREER

    That's more impressive to me than his career totals

    Bird average 10 rpg and 6.5 apg, so I think he's closest

    But mj's formula proved to be the most winning and successful method - the only guy with 30/5/5 career averages..

    And btw, I think lebron's time of possession somewhat nullifies his stats and puts a limit on his teams, but the mainstream doesn't know about that stuff, so his 7 and 7 will mean something

    the funny thing is lebrons agenda to collect both points and assists actually ended up being his downfall ...had he focussed on one or the other his teammates/coaches would have benefited more from his style because then there wouldn't be any stagnating/ball watching/confusion and total chaos when lebron goes out of the game or doesn't play. the total reliant nature of his offensive systems on a ball dominant stat padder was a detriment to every team he played for and its more than likely the reason he has such a failed career minus bail out shots

    Westbrook needs 3-4 years for assists and 6-9 years for points.
    Harden needs 6-10 years for assist and 5-8 years for points.

    Magic's assists were worth more because they didn't reduce teammates' assists or the team's - the Lakers were #1 in assists every year

    But lebron's assists come at the expense of teammate and team assists - teammates see their assists decline alongside lebron, so the team has low assist rankings and a brand of ball that can't compete well on the championship level

    That's why you have to look at everything - stats and winning
