I hardly think scoring champ should ve the one with most points in general than most ppg. Its not Tatums fault for eg that he played more games than Embid. As in all time leading scorers we look at most points global, not most ppg. Thats the top scorer.

If someone scores 30.1 PPG and plays 80 games (2408 points), they should win the scoring title over someone who had 30.2 PPG over 75 games (2265 points).

What I'm trying to say is that total points should matter more, these are direct contributions to your team. It solves the minimum game problem naturally as well. Reward the scoring title to someone who actually scored more points in the season.

We can still have PPG, APG, RPG, etc. considerations for things like MVP and such.
