Good luck beat lbj u have play 20years ave more than 27.2 points a game not miss more than 219 game . 2season he didn't miss game strike year and year lbj left Cleveland
In order for someone to break the record, they’d need to LeBron and more. They’d need to: -Be drafted out of high school at 17 -Drafted to a team without a star already on it -Be a star the moment they step in to the league -Freakishly athletic and skilled -Remain virtually injury free -Have the willingness to evolve their game and work on their weaknesses -Be able to score efficiently from anywhere on the court, in any way
@@raven4475he literally said be drafted out of highschool , your just trying to make a point out of nothing, Lebron averages 27 for his career. Kareem averaged 24 , and 10 in his last year. Bron was passing it regardless
If LeBron really does play 2-3 more years, that should put him well over 40,000. Every record is made to be broken, but it may take just as long if not longer than Kareem's 30+ year run as the leadings scorer.
@@leojr.7022 i been arguing with some buddies at work about stockton and Bron having unbreakable records... people have no sense... Lebrom just did so is obviously gonna happen again🤣🤣🤣 a record 40 years old finally was broken and he's probably going to continue for 3 more years maybe 4... literally no active player rookie included can catch up luka had a shot but hes said he doesnt plan to play that long and he got hurt anyway... 27ppg for 20 years is tough
I think the part that people are missing is the fact lebron is like 5th all time ppg. So not only do you have to stay unrealistically healthy, but you have to average 27 while doing it
Exactly. Its not just longevity. You can play 20 years but if you avg 10 pts, you aint breaking that record 😂 his endurance and his drive to be great is his greatest skill/attribute.
How the logo is still rockin' is such an inspiration... love that man and his deep knowledge of all the nuances the beautiful game of basketball is build around...
I throughly enjoy listening to Jerry West, because of his basketball mindset. The way the NBA game is played now, and the advancement/resources with helping to keep players healthy, the scoring record will not stand as long as it had in the past.
Record won’t be broken and if it does it will be 50-100+ years down the line. 1. He’s not done playing so he can push the record to 45k. 2. Season might be shortened from 82 games within the next decade. 3. Injury free career + near 30PPG average through 20 years + mindset to play that long. And if Lebron hadn’t gotten hurt the last couple years he woulda passed kareem a year or 2 earlier
It’s gonna take another 25-30 years but somebody will unintentionally end up getting close and then go for it. I just don’t think this up and coming and current generation of stars want to play 20+ years to catch it but eventually someone will
It took 40 years for Kareem’s record to be broken! And LeBron was iron man for 15+ years and barely missed time (until he hit old age). You think these new school players who prioritize load management will break that record? Keep in mind LeBron just finished year 20 and is still playing! Possibly 2+ more years of consistent scoring.
@@steel148 that’s why i think it’s gonna be a kid from a whole different generation than what we’re seeing now cause these current guys and the younger middle school and teenage guys they’re mentoring don’t wanna play that long. It’s gonna take a decade or two for him to be born but there’s gonna be a generationally talented kid that’s gonna learn about what lebron did and how he did it and strive for longevity and go for it.
He was the youngest to hit all the milestones. So if someone would have been breaking it in the next couple of decades, we would have been hearing "youngest to 20k points" etc etc, by now. But we haven't heard anything. So I don't know if anyone would be beating this record for at least the next half century.
@@jrtg5758you living off the hype that dude not playing 20 years and averaging 27 lmaoo. For everyone who is currently living we will never see the record get broken
Jerry West might have the best nba life ever he’s seen every era from his to now & counting & on mostly maybe always spot on with everything about basketball…
We all have to remember the record is still "On going". If Lebron crosses the 42k Point, that record will not be broken in our lifetime! Presently, not one player is on pace and closest to it is Luka whom has to go atleast 15 more seasons in a row without injury scoring at least 27ppg ! Wish him luck with that....
The fact ppl think this record that stood forever is going to be broken ever again is INSANE. Only active players close but not really are Steph Kd Russ James Harden. All of em have 12000 less points😂😂😂. Shyts not being broken EVER. Got to literally dominate your entire 20 yr career. Hell imo none of those guys are going to play 20 seasons. Also Bron still playing. This record is truly untouchable
Lebron's record is going to be very very hard to beat. Load Management is so scientific these days. Players just dont play 82 games anymore. I thought Durant was going to outscore Lebron until he had the achilles injury, but it will take a guy like that, that can stay healthy till he's 40.
There's going to be a superstar eventually who's entire game revolves around volume scoring and nothing else, just constantly averaging the most shot attempts per season and trying to keep a career average of 35ppg. Idk it may have to be Wembanyama but that would make him significantly less valuable as a big man.
this "who's gonna be healthy for that long" take is just Ludacris....health is just one important aspect, but health alone will not give a player to break this incredible record. You gotta be DOMINANT for 2 decades as a player and perform on a very high level to have a chance to even come close to breaking it. Vince Carter, Parish, they were healthy to extend their careers into their 40s. yet they were nowhere close to their prime self in the last 6-8 years of their career....someone can play 23 seasons in the NBA and not even be in the Top 25-50 in scoring. Lebron's 1 of 1 ability is that he is still a top 5 player even in his 20th season and his production has not dipped a single bit, only his athleticism. GOAT
No there has not been a player that’s as consistent as Bron 🐐 prob never will. That record won’t be broken for some time and no other player will lead BOTH finals teams in points, assist, steals, blocks, and rebounds. That’s hard to do on a video game let alone against the 73-9 team best shooters ever back to back mvp and pace and ball movement from that warriors team was 🔥 draymond always a top 5 defender.
You how it is? Kobe is a High Schooler too. With all those shot he took, basically the man took more shots than anybody in the NBA. But he didnt even get past Karl.
Someone will have to average 28 a game for like 22 seasons at this point... hahaha. Bron basically hit every major scoring mark at the youngest age... Unless he has a career ending injury he'll go over 40k in points. I'll be surprised if he doesn't average 25 again next season.. now the only question is the number of games he'll play each season. Crazy to think how many points he has when you combine career regular season and career postseason. That number will probably never be touched
I can see a young player to come through and score 30-35ppg for a career and play 20 seasons but I doubt many players will play 70+ games for 20 seasons. Injuries, rest, the way the game and health safety is changing.
Unless an alien gets drafted in the future ain’t nobody going to average 30-35 for 20 years. Lebron is so good that he has y’all believing that anybody can do this.
What jerry said about playin playoff and the in season tournament, they’re not adding games & playoff scoring still different category, new in season tournament ain’t adding games either
This is the reason why 80's 90's nba can't compete in todays league. Players are superior physically with unique skills. Even Jerry West says so. And medical sports science has advanced so much. It's like if todays soldiers fought in world war 2, there is no question who would win.
Anything is possible, but if LeBron manages to score more than 45k pts or even reach the peak of a improbable 50k pts, now that's close to impossible to ever be able to catch up.
Lebron been in the nba for 20 years and he’s a scorer. I’m not sure if there’s gona be someone who can replicate that for 20+ years. Nowadays players get injured and miss a lot of time playing
Tbh I can see it… this is how, they come into the league 17-19, they already at a superstar level, they able to stay healthy for the for the next 20 years while averaging near 30 (and that’s the current record of Kareem, by the time LeBron is done. It’s going be well at 42k.) so that means they have to do it for a nearly more 5 years. That’d make that person near 47.
only because of "load management" the record wont be broken? Its not like someone has to average like 25 ppg for 20 seasons while also staying injury free for 90% of your career
@@thakiid8568 but lebron only averages 71 games a season. Load management doesnt make you miss like half the season. The hardest part of breaking the scoring record is to average 27ppg for 20 seasons while only missing 11 games a season on average. The load management will actually help people do that
The way it's going now, maybe another 25-30yrs but who knows. A Wembanyama skilled, Jokic vision, Curry shooting 7'5 monster might come along and dominate. Anyway, the improvement of sports science, drugs (peds/medicines), the right genetics, economy (less family issues - more kids focused on sports and hard work focused on sports only instead of wasting time on family issues/poverty issues), the right tools and templates swt by predecessors, all those will help improve scouting the right players and we'll see better athletes and it might just take a bit less than 20 years for the next player to do it.
Everybody always talks about records being unbreakable. It's simply not true. Every record is breakable and will eventually be broken. Let's see whether it takes 10-20 years or 20-50+ years until Lebron's record is broken.
50ppg, 48.5mpg or 27rpg for a season will be broken? There are unbreakable records and if LeBron plays at least 3 more seasons while setting the record beyond 42k it will be one of them. To score 42k points you need 1400 games of 30ppg which is about 17 seasons or 1680 games of 25ppg (20.5 seasons with 0 missed games).
Nobody is beating John Stocktons assists record because you don’t have pure point guards anymore, every new age point guard wants to be like Steph and shoot 3s rather than assists the basketball, so yeah not every record is breakable.
The 4 point shot won’t change anything. There is so many variables at play and LeBron is at the top or near the top of all of them. Imagine a seven point shot? Steph Curry, the most prolific three point shooter ever, if he was awarded 7 points for every single one of his three point shots he’d have roughly 35,000 points. Still 3k+ short of LeBron.
Let’s think about this y’all Lebron is all time playoff scoring leader all time scoring leader in the finals and all time scoring leader damn I mean I believe these records will never be broken unless the nba allows it Lebron is just incredible
nbas been around for less than 80 years. and we're talking about "ever." please be serious. we have no idea how the game will change and grow in the future
@@maximus3294we have to think about how long bron has been doing this a guy has to come in and by his 2nd year is averaging 25+ and keep that up for 19-21 more years lol
I think that’s all talk, you know how much money the league and owners will lose if they cut the games down to 60 games? You think the owners are going to go for that?
R.I.P Jerry you will be missed. Thank you for contributions to the NBA and Laker Organization. Hopefully the Lakers sell the team and we get a GM that has your mindset and philosophy. You were an amazing ambassador to the game of basketball Mr. West!!!
Not only do you have to get in young, maintain an unreal health status, show up to every game and not get injured....you also have to have the build and iq that he has, and the ability to contribute to any team in anyway imaginable. There's nearly 0% chance we ever see it broken unless we add in some 4pt lines or something. Just way way way too many variables.
People forget we've had plenty of players play for a long time but none at lebrons level. Loom at Vince dude played till he became a grandpa and still not at level of lebron.
It'll take somebody being healthy as shit, single digit injuries, has insane basketball iq, unphased by pretty much anything anybody throws at them, and adjust with the game as it's evolving.....for 20 years straight for somebody to get close to Lebron. I think it's fun to think about "who is next!" but realistically, this is absolutely it. I don't even know if it's humanly possible to beat lebrons record. Not only do you have to do all these things for 20 years straight, but then have to be a good ass player that can contribute in literally every way to a team. There will surely never ever be another Lebron. Not even close.
Being traditional is a good thing but things never stop changing or evolving the example is they just made the last Camaro it breaks my heart but again everything is life changes including B-ball at some point !!!
Nobody will ever brake Lebron's scoring record. That won't happen. I know that many people thought the same about Kareem, but honestly for me that Kareem's record never seemed unbroken because a guy averaged below 25 points in his career, I knew that some time there would be a giy who would be able to play 20+ seasons while averaging at least 25 points. But this Lebron's record when he finishes his career???? Nah man, there is no world where it is possible to happen. Maybe someone would brake his record right now, BUT HE WILL PLAY 30+ MORE GAMES THIS SEASON PROBABLY AND HE WILL ALSO PLAY THE NEXT SEASON. I don't think there would be human on Earth who will ever challenge that.
With technology, ever evolving genetics, and better medicine absolutely someone will pass lebron. One day playing 25+ years in the NBA with no injuries will be attainable as we progress with tech.
@@jaydot4956 so when stem cells become more readily available, synthetic body mods etc it won’t mean anything? People are getting injured due to over exertion from a young age. That’s not up to medicine that’s up to coaches and the basketball system to solve, medically speaking as a species we are bigger and better than before.
Yea someone better always comes along. But his record going stand for at least 20 plus years. If it took lebron 20 years to get there the next guy going have to play close to that many years.
No one will break that record you would have to avg 25+ for 25 seasons hope you stay healthy for 85% of your career and the league is going to cut down on the games soon and we have load management happening so nope Bron is king 👑
@@afa1216 if they were polite.... They would state basic facts like this, it's not their fault, but the comparison can't be genuine if the terms of your career which you competed under were completly different. But that wouldn't serve their personal (or their quick to draw conclusion fanboys) ego's
Facts! Jealousy as it finest! Finally and OLD HEAD not stuck in the "MY ERA IS THE BEST". Haters gonna hate Discredit what he has done for the league but the record is there to prove the point. Heck even in life. Good father, good husband atleast for now. No drama
There's always going to be better players in the future. If we want the world to become better, we must want the foundation fo society in the youth to exceed the former generations in every capacity. Islam is the truth. Islam has the winning team and the golden age of science, language is soon to come inshallah.

Nobody is beating John Stocktons assists record because you don’t have pure point guards anymore, every new age point guard wants to be like Steph and shoot 3s rather than assists the basketball, so yeah not every record is breakable.
The 4 point shot won’t change anything. There is so many variables at play and LeBron is at the top or near the top of all of them.
Imagine a seven point shot? Steph Curry, the most prolific three point shooter ever, if he was awarded 7 points for every single one of his three point shots he’d have roughly 35,000 points. Still 3k+ short of LeBron.
There is 2 player that can shoot that far. Damian & Curry
He competes his fanny off🤣🤣🤣
The main issue is health, Luka drops 40 almost every night but I don’t see him lasting 20 years
Let’s think about this y’all Lebron is all time playoff scoring leader all time scoring leader in the finals and all time scoring leader damn I mean I believe these records will never be broken unless the nba allows it Lebron is just incredible
Nobody will ever break his record
nbas been around for less than 80 years. and we're talking about "ever." please be serious. we have no idea how the game will change and grow in the future
@@maximus3294we have to think about how long bron has been doing this a guy has to come in and by his 2nd year is averaging 25+ and keep that up for 19-21 more years lol
Requires an extremely special player
Everything will be broken. There will be a 4 point line. 5 point plays over a 20 year career. It can definitely be broken.
@@ogsellout1897that dumbass comparison has nothing to do with TOTAL pts scored in career🤦🏾♂️ bron played for 4 teams idiot 😂😂🤦🏾♂️
It would not be broken because within the next 5-10yrs the season would be cut to 60-65 games per season.
I think that’s all talk, you know how much money the league and owners will lose if they cut the games down to 60 games? You think the owners are going to go for that?
please no 4 point shot, but move back the 3 point line so only real shooters can shoot
If somebody break it none of us will be alive to see. 🐐James
Probably..Specially when rules keeps getting more offense favor than defense. One day, half court shots will be worth 4 points.😂😂😂
Lebron chased it intentionally. Since he started it, all his records will be broken because people will start chasing shit from hereon out
R.I.P Jerry you will be missed. Thank you for contributions to the NBA and Laker Organization. Hopefully the Lakers sell the team and we get a GM that has your mindset and philosophy. You were an amazing ambassador to the game of basketball Mr. West!!!
If someone can stay as healthy as LeBron at late age or get into the NBA very young, it could happen. We just won’t see it anytime soon
Not only do you have to get in young, maintain an unreal health status, show up to every game and not get injured....you also have to have the build and iq that he has, and the ability to contribute to any team in anyway imaginable. There's nearly 0% chance we ever see it broken unless we add in some 4pt lines or something. Just way way way too many variables.
People forget we've had plenty of players play for a long time but none at lebrons level. Loom at Vince dude played till he became a grandpa and still not at level of lebron.
It'll take somebody being healthy as shit, single digit injuries, has insane basketball iq, unphased by pretty much anything anybody throws at them, and adjust with the game as it's evolving.....for 20 years straight for somebody to get close to Lebron. I think it's fun to think about "who is next!" but realistically, this is absolutely it. I don't even know if it's humanly possible to beat lebrons record. Not only do you have to do all these things for 20 years straight, but then have to be a good ass player that can contribute in literally every way to a team. There will surely never ever be another Lebron. Not even close.
Being traditional is a good thing but things never stop changing or evolving the example is they just made the last Camaro it breaks my heart but again everything is life changes including B-ball at some point !!!
Staying healthy is one and scoring consistently with a 27 ppg in 20+ season is second....
Nobody will ever brake Lebron's scoring record. That won't happen. I know that many people thought the same about Kareem, but honestly for me that Kareem's record never seemed unbroken because a guy averaged below 25 points in his career, I knew that some time there would be a giy who would be able to play 20+ seasons while averaging at least 25 points. But this Lebron's record when he finishes his career???? Nah man, there is no world where it is possible to happen. Maybe someone would brake his record right now, BUT HE WILL PLAY 30+ MORE GAMES THIS SEASON PROBABLY AND HE WILL ALSO PLAY THE NEXT SEASON. I don't think there would be human on Earth who will ever challenge that.
They can make a 10 points shot nobody is going to break the 🐐 record
Breaking Brons record is virtually impossible. It takes too much to get that kind of record
For every 3s Curry made give him 15 points 😂😂 he still can't break the 🐐 record...heck just give them 50 points for every 3s just to make it fair
Someone will beat it we won’t be around to see it tho…
Most likely only thing is we won't be around to witness it
Who gonna break his regular season 10 points or more consecutive games?
NOBODY
With technology, ever evolving genetics, and better medicine absolutely someone will pass lebron. One day playing 25+ years in the NBA with no injuries will be attainable as we progress with tech.
Dudes are injury prone like crazy today. Hopefully the next group gets more durable.
Bro players are getting injured more than before, all that new technology bs doesn’t mean sh*t.
@@jaydot4956 so when stem cells become more readily available, synthetic body mods etc it won’t mean anything? People are getting injured due to over exertion from a young age. That’s not up to medicine that’s up to coaches and the basketball system to solve, medically speaking as a species we are bigger and better than before.
Just wait till teams start shooting even more 3’s, league in 20-30 years everyone gonna shoot like curry
Not necessarily…
Even Curry cant score 30,000
He going to play a couple more seasons what’s the question, no one thought he would play this long and not have serious injuries lol
Yea someone better always comes along. But his record going stand for at least 20 plus years. If it took lebron 20 years to get there the next guy going have to play close to that many years.
No one will break that record you would have to avg 25+ for 25 seasons hope you stay healthy for 85% of your career and the league is going to cut down on the games soon and we have load management happening so nope Bron is king 👑
.....and not be forced to miss 3 years of adding to their NBA points tally like the previous record holder ( Kareem ), due to College
Lebron took less games to outscore kareem
We hear you, MJ! Such bitterness.
@@afa1216 if they were polite.... They would state basic facts like this, it's not their fault, but the comparison can't be genuine if the terms of your career which you competed under were completly different.
But that wouldn't serve their personal (or their quick to draw conclusion fanboys) ego's
If in the NFL you “keep it traditional”.. Players would die on the field..
Eventually yes
No one will break the record.
As soon i saw bron bron name i click 🫡🫡🫡🫡🐐🐐👑👑👑👑👑
I pray we don’t get a 4 point shot it’s so entertainment based now and who shooting that ?
There are plenty of people in the league who will gladly shoot that.
It’s already entertainment based
I hope not, 2 pt shot and 3 pt shot will become less relevant once people eventually master the 4 pt shot
I think they should make the game tougher again and do something with foils and free throws
Facts! Jealousy as it finest! Finally and OLD HEAD not stuck in the "MY ERA IS THE BEST". Haters gonna hate
Discredit what he has done for the league but the record is there to prove the point.
Heck even in life. Good father, good husband atleast for now. No drama
This is LA and if he's not winning championships for the lakers then we could care less about how many points he scores
Who knows Bryce might turn out to be better than bronny and may force Lebron to play til he's 45. If that happens. That record might last a century.
Imagine lebron being selfish 😮💨
4 point shot 🤞🏿
R.I.P to the legend
Closest person to lbj
Kevin durant he missed 326 games
He ave 29 points a game
There's always going to be better players in the future. If we want the world to become better, we must want the foundation fo society in the youth to exceed the former generations in every capacity.
Islam is the truth. Islam has the winning team and the golden age of science, language is soon to come inshallah.
