Enjoy some casual viewing during your lock down. Kobe video very soon. I think its going to be one of my better ones!
I love you! Keep up the good work
Do time line of the 2000s pistons and how they lost 5 straight conference finals
iNerdSome how do you make theze
Aye everyone knows that LBJ is going to be number 1 on the all time scoring list before he retires passing everyone
He is already in the top 3
The way Michael jordan, then Kobe Bryant, then LeBron James, climbed throughout the list was pretty remarkable.
None more so than Wilt
No mention of Karl Malone huh
@@dondada4076 We dont mess with Karl Malone
LawyersRFun not suprised his personal life was pretty messed up
@@dondada4076 He could put the ball in the hoop though lmao.
If only Vince hadn’t decided to retire, he coulda been all time leading scorer just by playing till he was like 80. :(
Lol
TRAM PHAN lmao
Yep this Man played in 4 different decades!
@@LowBudgetJustinY only 3 but ok
ms ns 4 decades, 90s, 00s, 10s, 20s
The most impressive thing about this is that wilt chamberlain got over 30,000 points without the three point line
Shaq basically did the same thing when you think about it 💀
@@zymond8405 yeah same with mj. The impressive part about wilt is the time frame he got them in. Also unlike shaq, wilt was a good shooter.
@@masterchief5833 well to be fair mj just decided not to shoot threes he could have but didn’t want to wilt he didn’t even have the three point line to score from
@@beefboss1217 Well atleast from what I heard, mj was pretty shit at threes. I think he could have been good if he practiced.
@@masterchief5833 I mean yeah he was pretty bad at threes but like you said if he pet on practicing them he could have been good at the wilt he didn’t have the three point line to practice from he could only score two’s
Defence: exist
Wilt: I'm gonna pretend I didn't see that

More like the defense just didnt exist

@@cuhecutioner not really, it's more because of his fake dunk move, and turnaround fadeaway

What I love is for all of Kareem's accomplishments, he always remained a beautiful human off the court. OG GOAT.
@Taylor D stfu
@@AcousticOlli ngl you not wrong, he tryna act like he’s the hulk, he’s not that strong and vertical? He doesn’t have, a vertical. He is just tall. Kareem might’ve been better than him. He just better be glad there wasn’t good tape that analysts could go through. He had many weaknesses he didn’t wanna own up too. Cocky asf.
A beautiful human 😂 he’s a pile of garbage
Some revisionist history hear from young people. "Fuck you, kid" is what a lot of people remember him for lol.
Kareem is goals bro, he accomplished everything a basketball player would ever want or dream of accomplishing. GOAT is a very fitting title indeed
Shaq: I'm climbing up the rankings!
Kobe: Lol bye
Ren Abarca Kobe said ‘Get noobed’ once he passed shaq
I know it's a joke but Shaq dominance is more than scoring. Kobe is of the Jordan mold hes suppose to be a better scorer than Shaq. Again I get the joke I just know a lot of people will watch this and think scoring is all that matters.
R. B. Yeah I know it was a joke but for most dominant than shaq would win by far

That is Dr.j 1 of the best dunkers ever
cradle
It’s my favorite in game dunk of all time, there’s even a nice UA-cam vid of it with the defender’s side of things!
Karl Malone chasing Jordan gives you a sense of how epic those finals were. Jordan's greatest accomplishment was surely handling Stockton and Malone in 6 after they had already taken down: Kobe and Shaq, Duncan and Robinson, and Hakeem, Barkley, Drexler just to get there. 6 of the top 15 scorers of all time that post season. Epic
Had Malone stayed in Utah he probably is the all time scorer. Amaizing, Malone and Kareem, two post players are at the top being post players, and didn’t shoot threes a testament to their longevity though it’s only a matter of time till LBJ passes them.
Malone's Legacy relative to Jordan is rather fascinating: five times Malone came in second for points per game in a season. Each time, the one man ahead of him was Jordan.
So, Malone would most likely have won Five Scoring Titles if not for Jordan. To put that into perspective, Kobe, Kareem and Curry have each only won 2, while Julius Erving only won 3.
Malone also, very likely, would have been only the fourth player in NBA history to win three MVPs in a row, as well as two titles and two Finals MVPs, if only he hadn't played in the same era as Jordan.
Jordan probably did the most damage to Karl Malone's Legacy of all the great players.
Simultaneously, I think if people studied Malone more he would be ranked higher all-time and looked back on far more favorably. The irony of Jordan's greatness is how it degrades other greats from his era, and how this is likely to be used against Jordan in the future (aka 'Jordan played in a weak era, and therefore is not GOAT').
@@solcreate490 malone is the most lebron player we have had, and neither jordan or malone stat padded, if anyone has doubts that jordan would have "handled lebron" if he was playing in this era, its that every single star on every single team was gunning for mj and not one of them could get close.
The west was much better than the east from 92-00. East always had 1-2 teams that could make it to finals pretty fresh.
@@Hero-3 you are wrong. Jordan was the best player on the planet but the West Was stacked. The East had Ewing playing for a crap organization who surrounded him with nothing and Miller playing for a small-market who couldn't afford in the time before the lockout to surround him with anything. Outside of Penny Hardaway and Shaq while Mike was playing baseball the East was crap. Take account of the 90s Hall of Famers and then tell me I'm wrong.
Insane how Kareem is still the all time scoring leader after nearly 4 decades
If Jordan has a 20 year career he might have been the league's all time scoring leader
it is not insane....at that time players were not so equal. Now there is more "stuff" to put players physically almost to the same level, so they can defend better etc....
@Liu Kang two words...sky hook
Kareem played 20 seasons, and he got 38k points.Wilt played 13 seasons and he got 31k, imagine if wilt played 20 seasons...
theres only one player in the history could pass kareen. THE KING LBG
It is eerie watching that final highlight of LeBron James passing Kobe Bryant knowing that Kobe, his daughter, and 7 others would perish in that helicopter crash not even 24 hours afterwards. Wonderful video but it still hurts to know that Bean is not amongst us anymore. RIP.
Just hearing Jordans name was a true moment. the legend, and that 6th championship.
Amen, brother, may the Legend, her Legendary daughter, and the others rest in peace
That game gives me ptsd now
I was thinking the same thing when that clip was shown
Yeah it honestly couldn't have played out more dramatically in a movie, unbelievably sad though. The game ended at 11pm, so the crash was about 10 hours of less after the end of the TV broadcast.
Jordan played 3 years in college, missed a full season with a broken foot, missed 2 season playing baseball, missed 3 season before playing with the Wizards because he retired early. Insane he scored that many points.
yep, without those two breaks (I'll leave out the injury season - that's sports) he probably would've broke 40K and all anybvody would be talking about was whether Lebron was the 2nd or 3rd best player of all time.
@@lttfan9185 noboby? sorry lebron will always be in the conversation, since in the end he would have passed mj as well even if mj had 40k points but mjs efficiency would be off the roof
And he played against real defenses. Not the pussified crap LeCryBaby James has faced! And it's not a debate, LeBron isn't even in the top 10 best players of all time for me no matter how much points he scores. He's choked, he's been swept, he's lost multiple finals. Jordan reached 6, he won all 6 and it never ever went to a 7th game in any of the two 3-peats. There's no discussion who's the GOAT.
@@eddiewinehosen6665 typical lebron hater, hes in your head rent free all fucking day
@@lttfan9185 lebron would still pass mj regardless bc he will get over 40k easily. and it took mj so many shots to score a lot. lebron passed mj in points on way less shot attempts so games and seasons missed has nothing to do with it. bron will end his career with 42-43k pts
It's just kind of sad to see some of the players just come to a halt, not scoring any more points. and at a point, Kobe was the only active one in the list.
also sucks to know that kobe and some other players would be higher up if injuries didnt happen. Kobe would most definately pass karl malone, and this season being cancelled ruins lebrons chances of going 2nd all time
@@tomasf8964 he was also on pace to possibly be 1st all time
tomas F he can still do it. In 2-3 seasons he’ll be 1st all time in scoring.
@@tomasf8964 he's still gonna pass Kareem eventually

OK,....This was seriously one of the funnest videos I have ever seen! I really liked how the players moved up and down as the years passed, along with all the video footage of the different players. I seriously could have watched a video like this for hours. This was amazing and so well done!!! Thank you to whoever did this!!
Awesome visualization! The work done in this video is so incredible. Not only shows how long the career point leader stays on top, but how fast the successor surpasses the leader. Shows how the history of the game can retire some greats at the blink of an eye. Whoever did this is a genius!

What amazing is Wilt only played 13 seasons compared to Kareem’s 20.
Kareem's fanboys don't want to talk about that. Wilt spent the last couple years just focusing on defense as well.
@@wymple09 true that's a good point but Chamberlain clearly was washed up a lot earlier than kareem was Chamberlain Never Would Have Made 20 years his knees were shot but that's just reality.... was Chamberlain more explosive yes but longevity should count for something unless you skip 4 years of college then it's kind of overrated like bryant and james did
@@oldsensei8350 Chamberlain played volleyball long after his NBA years, and thumped on NBA players in basketball games into his 50's. Your premise is ridiculous.

@@oldsensei8350 Yes, I was there. I'm pretty sure I'm also older than you and am not a fanboy of anybody. Nowhere from anybody anywhere has the subject of Wilt's knees come up. Until you.

Great video. I've never understood why Jabbar is never in the GOAT discussion. His numbers are just as good and in some categories better than Jordan, Kobe and Lebron. He definitely wasn't friendly with the press and apparently could be difficult to deal with but his numbers don't lie.

Why do I absolutely love watching these! Thanks for sharing!!
Karl Malone had an amazing career. He was just unfortunate to play in the time when MJ was on the same court. Otherwise he would have had a lot more titles and MVPS. Points don't mean everything though. The ability to take over a game even when other greats are on the floor is something MJ did better than anyone.
Karl Malone doesn’t deserve anything
Yep. I remember those playoff games like it was yesterday. Cussing Karl Malone all the time if Jordan hadn't stepped away from the game so many times he would have ended up at the top by 10k points or more
After 3 Championships, Jordan was like.... "I think I will go be a mediocre baseball player for 2 years..." Then came back for 3 more Championships and then said "That's it, I'm retired." Then after 3 more years was like, "This retirement thing is boring, I think I'll go join a mediocre basketball team."
Imagine if the man played his career straight from being drafted to his final retirement
LeBron is 2 full seasons away. Its also amazing that Kareem never lead the league in scoring over any season in his career. Yet, is the alltime scoring leader. Amazing.
He played like 20 years very well so he stayed consistent
Kareem actually averaged 34.8 points per game for the Milwaukee Bucks one season in the early 70s....pretty sure that was tops in the NBA that season.
That brief moment when Dirk was a top 5 scorer of all time 😢
Lol
He was a great player and should be the first Euro in HOF
The fact that he’s 6th still absolutely blows my mind.
@@richardhill4938 don’t tell that to Drazen Petrovic, Arvydas Sabonis, Dino Radja, Sarunas Marcilionus, Nikos Galis, or any of the other European players already in there.
He actually never got to top 5 Lebron passed Wilt before he did
LeBron said “excuse me, scuse me,sorry,scuse me.” 😂
Shit he passed dirk while he dirk was still playing I mean ain't that a bitch 💀💀💀 the man yet retired at that time 😂😂😂
Lebron has some time sooo he might beat the record
Most of these stat videos end with LBJ flying up the board at the end. Longevity is key
@@adamdada6447 Indeed, Lebron is 35. Kareem played until he was 41, and scored 6,800 pts from ages 36-41. Being about 4,000 pts behind him now, I would say that James will top Kareem by about 4,000, barring major injury. Check back in about 6 yrs :)
@Eilliw Nodrog Gordon Willie, the age is from the start of the season, not some random point in between. He was 35 when the season started.
I never knew that Julias Erving was that close to Wilt Chamberlin on the career points no one ever brings it up for some reason.

If MJ played the 3 seasons he missed due to retirement, I estimated his points total to reach 36,000 or more.
Maybe, but there might be a chance he didn't get a second dynasty, because by the time he got his first with the bulls he was emotionally and physically drained. He needed that break, so he chose to take it. It probably did better for his career and gave him a spark to return and win again because he missed basketball due to being away.
@@lloydrodriguez9969 the commissioner kicked him out. Save that emotionally and physically drained shit lol
@@orodedavid6556 No, watch The Last Dance. The commissioner did not kick him out. Not only did the commissioner deny it...MJ denied it himself. I'm going to take Jordan's words over yours. Save your conspiracy theory shit lol
@@lloydrodriguez9969 yeah because the commissioner would admit that on a michael jordan documentary film. Just stop typing. In fact, stop thinking for yourself, ok!
@@orodedavid6556 But why would Jordan say it wasn't true? He wasn't afraid of calling people out or contradicting people on the documentary.
Maybe the problem is you don't think for yourself and just take any speculation as fact, because it's interesting to you.
Take the information you're given and make a judgement instead of making stuff up and sticking to it, because you have a bias. Jordan says he wasn't kicked out by the commissioner. His friends said he told them about retiring a year before it happened. They're right. You're wrong. Deal with it.
This video is INCREDIBLE!! One of the best ever!
How do you dislike stats? awesome job! Made me appreciate those legends and what they did.
Some people dislike stats when they don’t agree with “somes” way of thinking
Kareem came in like "EXCUSE ME!!"

A video over the most championships won from same timeline would be cool too! Their are alot of greats who's careers got cut short because of injuries so the fact these unique superstars remained healthy & managed to get their kudos but also comes the talent pool of the team's they played for that they had to score or the team wouldn't have any points & Kareem Abdul Jabaar surviving over 4 decades that is huge feat not many sports records survive that long

Love the video clips with the original commentary as opposed to just still photos on your other videos. Great work!
Look at that top 5:
C - Kareem
PF - Karl Malone
SF - LBJ
SG - Kobe
SG - MJ
Have Lebron run point and that’s an amazing starting 5!
I think my at point because they need a sf
If you have to put in right position and in term of total points it will be James/Bryant/Erving/Malone/jabbar
For me, the top starters, scoring-wise:
C - Kareem
PF - The Mailman
SF - Dr. J
SG - MJ
PG - The Big O.
The Mailman = Karl Malone
The Big O. = Oscar Robertson
David Marcano Salcedo that’s reasonable but DR.J??? Party bird or LBJ?

man, these skyhook shots were so beautiful.
Will LeBron end up #1 for sure? And will any current players this generation besides him ever crack the top 5 or top 10?
KD will crack the top 30 all time next season, but he's not much younger than LeBron, just a few years...maybe someone like Luka Doncic could if he stays healthy and plays like he is now for at least over a decade?
Luka and trae have a shot if they are healthy.
I think devin booker was the 3rd youngest to break like 5k points was it? Just behind lebron and kd. That's how you go up these records... By being one of the youngest to reach milestones and not get any injuries... Too bad kd got injured too much... He could've been some thousands behind lebron...
Depending on IF there'll be basketball play again. Also, Lebron not playing for how many months? He's not gonna stop aging; he's been a pro since he was 18.
Harden most likely will get 30k and top 5, KD if healthy and comebacks will most likely be top 5 also. Lebron top 1 in 3/4 seasons if healthy. For the younger guys, we can't say anything its too far and anything can happen.

As a fan of basketball from Brazil it's sad to not see the Brazilian/Olympics GOAT represented in those vids.
He is considered the unofficial leading scorer in the world with 49737 points club and national team combined
Sad for him that in his time there wasnt a possibility of playing in the NBA and in the nacional team. But his patriotism is something that really is rare in that time and in today's era.
Well if you guys didnt know about him go check it out.
It would have been pretty cool if they showed him in this video, it’s really unfortunate that he didn’t play in the NBA. He would’ve been one of the best NBA players of all time

That’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard, he literally played the DREAM TEAM and scored 40+ on them. Harder competition doesn’t mean shit in basketball because it’s all about shooting from a spot and making it from there, there’s no difference in both leagues.

average game quality is just way too high for anyone 1 man to achieve this. would have to be staged.
@@franz009franz but Kobe scored 81, he could have gotten it if the coach didn't bench him
@@angry_icelander3744 I think jmxy did a video on this. Kobe would have gotten 100 if he adjusted to today's game by taking more 3 pointers and playing all 48 minutes
@Matt R Wilt shot 63 times w/ 32 free throws to get to 100.
@@franz009franz sir Harden has a better shot at breaking this record or klay
Man, imagine how hard it is to break those top guys records. You need to achieve an insane level of longevity, durability, consistence as a high scorer and strong mentality to be top 10 scorer. We all know Lebron has them in excellence his entire career. But at the age of 35/36 he still has to struggle a lot to beat that tall guy from the 80's.
This was a dope production, great job.
kind of a shame Jordan lost 4 1/2 years in early retirement. He would have easily cleared 40k
Carmelo Anthony just moved up a couple of spots as well during this season, he can deffo make it into the top 10 by the end of the season
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yeah...Carmelo is like #12 now...I believe that he'll do it before it's all said and done ..
@@deesteele4926 what's funny?
@@leob4403 bro I honestly don’t remember 🤷🏾♂️🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@deesteele4926 lol
This is very entertaining and accurate to watch right on point
LeBron gonna be number 1 soon give him a couple of years from now
Who cares about lechina James. He needs to move there...Lakers "used" to be my team...
@@thomasgassert7673 yeah with no defense being played...LeBeach
Of course he will Emmitt Smith it. Cake walk it to the title (just like his actual titles). Playing just long enough to get it and then bow out. Using that as his claim to goat.
Lebrun get spanked by the Suns and decides to take his retreat ,before adversity he quits, and he dares to call himself the GOAT.....the king is dead hail for the king!
If lebron can stay healthy he should easily become number one within 3 years tops.
Please make Timeline of Magic and bird rivalry or Bulls with Jordan!
This video is super cool. Nice work!
Flight: WHERES CURRY
Where's Curry on the all-time scoring list?
He's only between 10k & 15k ish he won't be top 15 for sure he was a late bloomer
Lmaooooo somewhere shooting 3 pointers
Flight: 38k points? I'll be doing that by June..
@@LowBudgetJustinY FUCKING RIGHT LOL
NerdSome I loved this. One mistake though: this says NBA. Julius Erving scored 13,000 points in the NBA. In both ABA and NBA though he scored 30,000
0:58 Is no one gonna talk about how nice that old school fast break was, though?
#3 in scoring while being top 10 in assists..... that just says it all IMO
Also top 10 in steals, and going to be top 30 in rebounding when he's retired.
Lebron is the GOAT -- but MJ was Nike's first born son, so all ties go to him.
At the end of the day he’ll be #1 in scoring a top 5 or top 3 in assists. Fucking insane thats my goat
@@leultrainstinct406 while playing 300 more games. Lebron is trying too hard to reach MJ. Imagine if Mj have someone to look up better than Magic and MJ said it himself that he would retire if he surpassed Magic’s rings.He would chase for 8 rings if he looked up to an Mj clone.
@@kingdinodragonite3470 200 games actually. And when he passed Jordan, he took thousands of less shots then he did only only played a dozen or 2 more games. You’re missing the main point. Lebron isn’t a pure scorer like Jordan. He’s a pass first player and has to carry both the passing and scoring load. If he focused solely on scoring like Jordan did, he would’ve passed him in hundreds of less games and even more thousands of less shots.
@@kingdinodragonite3470 your last point makes no sense. But all ik is Everyone is trying to be greater than mj. There’s nothing wrong with striving for that goal. There’s no such thing as “trying to hard” to be the greatest. If he didn’t, he wouldn’t have a chance. Shit look at Kobe. Damn near copied his every move lol. Even mj himself tried hard to be the greatest. Ofc you only make it a bad thing when it comes to Lebron smh
That was seriously great casual viewing.
Dirk and Karl Malone are the most underrated stars in nba history
Dirk horrible on defense, Malone terrible in the clutch. They are appropriately rated
@@singingchef23 Dirk in his prime wasn’t great on D but def not horrible. You talking bout 40 year old dirk lol
No they're not
Allen Iverson?
dirk was alright on defence, his offence made up for it more than it had to
What's nuts is Jordan only played 15 seasons compared to Kobe who did 20 and LeBron who's at 17 and still going
Karl Malone the most underrated player of all time
For real i just have know his name
Yes not American so i casually watch nba if there is a good match
No, he has played almost all his career with John Stockton, the all time leader in passing with +15000 assists made, and a major part of these assists were for Karl Malone
@@dlndtn3543 So? You need to finish at the rim as well if you want 36000 pts
@@lucabochi390 I didn't justified the fact that it was easy to do, because yes it isn't he still need to score, but he isn't underrated
@Michelin La Gachette Fair enough I just think people kinda forget about him sometimes being #2 on the Alltime list
I appreciate the effort put into this
What's impressive with Jabbar, Malone and even Wilt is that they didn't shoot threes.
I miss the legend...
Kobe Bryant
R.I.P mamba
1978-2020
U were my idol Kobe
