So, assuming he's healthy Lebron is definitely going to finish with 35k plus points, 10k assists and 10k rebounds right?

That's insane.

Okay if one could theoretically have Matt Bonner sign any item, what would it be? Not sure if it'll pan out, but I've got an opportunity and right now I'm thinking a pair of new balances.

By the end of this year Lebron will be 5th all time in playoff games played. Possibly 4th if he goes to the finals again and doesn't miss any games.

He has won 143 playoff games, which puts him at 5th all time. If he gets to the finals this year and is swept, he'll be tied for 2nd all time in playoff wins.

Seems like reaching 10K rebounds is the safer bet. If he reaches 10K assists he'll easily be the best old non-PG passer. 35K seems realistic. 40K is the big number though.

I guarantee you wilt and Kareem had 46/15/7/7 games

I'm more skeptical on Kareem doing that as he wasn't a big single game scorer. He reached 46+ points nineteen times and we have data to eliminate six of those games so there's only thirteen potential games where he could've done it. OTOH, Wilt had 168 games with 46+ points and we can only eliminate five of them.

13 vs. 163.

A basic estimation says that Wilt may've had nearly 500 career triple doubles if blocks and steals had been tracked from 1959 onwards. Wilt's the only guy to reach 100 points but also no two players together have ever reached 100 points either. Kobe Bryant + Smush Parker still doesn't reach 100 points. 66,005 ABA/NBA games and Wilt's still the only one.


In Kareem's NBA debut he was playing strong D right through the end.

Today's millenial NBA players would be raging about that block at the end of the game with a nine point lead. KD would log onto Twitter and talk about sliced bread after KAJ blocked him.

LBJ will soon pass Karl Malone and then only Kareem and Wilt stand in his way.

You don't have to get into the fight but pretty much everyone at least pretends to stick up for their teammate. It's not a big deal at all, but you don't usually see someone just walk away like that.

It's possible to avoid a suspension while still at least kinda looking like you might care about what happens to a teammate.

He played like a 90s pf at Utah and had a much worse handle. He's worked hard and improved his handle, and the Lakers' fluid offense is perfect for him.

Yeah he didn't need to run in throwing punches or anything, just like, grab your teammates shoulder and pretend to pull them off or something. Don't turn your back like a loving rear end in a top hat and walk away.
