Looking at the numbers re points its amazing how shitty of free throw percentage shaq and wilt had, especially when compared to the top 50 all time scorers. If they shoot the same percentage as Kareem, they both jump score just shy of 2500 additional points in their career, which would put Wilt behind Malone. Interestingly of the top ten scorers, only two have played less than 1100 games, that being Wilt and MJ. MJ and Wilt are the only two to average more than 30 a game.

And MJ took off during his prime for basically two years, and also drug his career scoring average down with his two AARP seasons in DC.

None of this changes the magnitude of the achievement of passing Kareem. I'm letting him have this moment.

A bit harsh. LeBron has principles and morals and empathy
I may disagree but he stands for what he believes
LBJ fans want to be cool with all other fans and let them have their moment.
Just what I’m hearing.
MJ > LBJ fo' sho'.
And kudos to Mike for upgrading on wife v2.0. She used to be Julio Inglesias Jr's main squeeze.
sing the glory of China forever!
35 years later and I don't think I can name another player on the LA roster beside LeBron.
How times change.
