So true, he could have wanted out after missing the playoffs three straight seasons during his early years but he stayed loyal unlike these other players

LeBron James is the NBA's all-time scoring leader. Here is a list of ways to contextualize his point total.

  1. In the collective regular-season and post-season, LeBron James has scored more total points (51,961) than Clyde Drexler and Allen Iverson combined (51,637). Yet, he has two more years on his contract.

  2. LeBron has scored 4,865 more points than Bird and Magic combined, despite having fewer total NBA appearances than the two careers added together.

  3. Let's estimate that LeBron will average ~23 PPG on 65 games a year in Philadelphia. This brings his point total to ~55,600. As of Oct. 16 2026, that is more than Michael Jordan and Luka Dončić combined (54,997).

  4. LeBron's 20-point games alone (46,611) outscore Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's entire career (44,149). This means you need remove all 335 games he's scored under 20 points before you can call him nr. 2 on the all-time scoring list.

This makes him GOAT over Magic for me. Magic did achieve more but Steph’s shooting and gravity is a singularity. Dude weaponized the 3 ball and now the entire game of basketball on all levels imaginable- play around this style.

His influence transcends magics achievements. Magic ranks higher as a player but Steph has a strong case for Greatest of all time PG!

This is a playoff matchup I would love to see. The Pacers try to tire you out by making you play fast like you’re in a track meet, and the Detroit Pistons suffocate offenses with their size and strength. I would really like to see which team imposes their will on the game.

I feel some have forgotten, or newer/younger fans don't quite grasp just how explosive and overpowering peak Lebron was

Because he's been in the league so freaking long, I've seen a massive amount of recency bias the past couple years. So many comments and continous arguments that refer to today's Lebron when comparing him to other players on how he moves, his game, his limitations.

15 years ago peak Lebron was so incredibly explosive. That man was an unstoppable tank. He still is great, but just encouraging people to check out games from that era. Especially younger fans that weren't around to see them live, it was wild. He has evolved his game with time, but the unlimited power he played with during that era was something else.

Ryan Rollins is not the player a lot of Bucks fans think he is.

12 Upvotes

I’m posting here because [r/MkeBucks](r/MkeBucks) is a cult full of fake Bucks fans that have zero knowledge of basketball.

Ryan Rollins is not really that good of a player. He is a kind of talented scorer and capable defender and that’s it. He does nothing to make players around him better. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him create an easy shot for someone else with his playmaking ability. He should not be one of the players they are hoping to be part of their future as they figure out who they are post Giannis.

Brayden Burries hasn’t even played a regular season game yet and I can tell you he’s already 10X better than Rollins. He’s literally better at everything except maybe as a one on one defender. Rollins should be Burries’ backup so that the team can get back to being relevant sooner than later. Burries is more than capable and plays mature enough. He doesn’t need to be eased into the pros like a lesser player might.

In fact, KPJ is better than Rollins. The best move might be to trade Rollins for whatever they can get before everyone realizes that he’s not that good.
