NBA - Main

Bro turned it into a pop quiz

40K end of season

Who is “they”? If you mean Malcolm Gladwell, I have a bridge in Nigeria I can sell you

I think I might have a million kills on counter-strike franchise.

Next goal: 40,000 career points!

Meh, I've done it. IDK what the fuss is about.

But how many YouTube shorts has LeBron watched?

Remember he has no bag

Every point Lebron scores he is the first player in NBA history to score those amount of points.

He's gonna get 45k easily, fucking insane.

And hes a pass first player…

Yea, but did he help a bunch of Loony Tunes characters win a basketball game against a force of evil intent on enslaving them?

Yea, but did he trash talk Mugsy Bogues into completely missing a shot during the biggest possession of the game that, according to Mugsy himself, ruined his shot forever and destroyed his career entirely?

They all should be included... Great question

The 10,000 hour thing is fake and Malcolm gladwell is a hack

I was in like 3rd grade when I remember seeing his first high school highlights and I’m almost 30 now. It’s mind boggling that he’s still playing and at a high level. Truly the Brady of the nba

GOAT

I was recently reading about Brian Shul. He spent 20 years in the USAF as an active pilot and retired with over 5000 hours flight hours. Now consider there is probably some kid in your neighborhood who has logged over 5000 hours in COD or Apex before they're old enough to drive. It makes you wonder (well, it makes me wonder) how much some skills are limited by access to training.

Just to comment on your estimate for 200-300 shots per day. I play amateur ball in germany on a rather basic level. yesterday i decided to do a shooting session with a teammate, where we not only shot with a single ball for one hour, but also spoke about execution, foot placement etc. i assume i approached 200 shots in that span, for two people in a casual manner with slightly more misses than makes. i would assume Bron easily exceeds my output by a multiple.

That no. 2 is a huge assumption. Basically anyone in any form of trade would have something they have done a million times. Wrench turns, bolts screwed in, wood pieces sanded etc etc.

Developers could easily get up to million bugs resolved (or created no judgment).

Artists, writers, anyone with a hobby. It's not unique to LeBron to work hard on his craft and practicing or doing a repetitive motion is the go to form of training for A LOT of things.

Still it's a fun exercise to do. As a former swimmer we always used to try and calculate the total mileage we swam in our careers.

The only thing I've done 1 million times is get a kill on Cod 😂😂😂

How much weight does longevity hold in the GOAT debate? This dude is just insane.

Biogenesis for the win

LeOver39000

Has LeBron scored more points than any person in any sport of all time? Hard metric to compare but interesting if true

Might as well set records for everything else in the NBA

Fun Fact: Lebron is older than the Utah Jazz head coach

Lebron is 38 and Will Hardy is 35.

pretty sure I am the #1 world leader in jerkin it. Done it millions of times, and that's not including all the practice shots that started around age 12ish. I don't think there will ever be a human who cums along and breaks my record. I am the undisputed gravy goat

Few things.

First being, Lebron clearly started earnestly practicing long before 14 years old. You don't end up the chosen one at 16 otherwise.

Secondly, Lebron has played basketball longer than since he was 10.

Jordan is still the goat

He is also the first one to have 1000*age in points. I think he just surpassed that mark in the last month or so.

All this on a career FT% of 73.5%... Imagine if he even hit 80% of his FTs

He's the goat. F rings, look at the player stats. It's clear

Good stuff Bron!

I think we should have a headline for every time he scores now. Like in Raising Arizona.... Seven hundred and ninety Missippi. Seven hundred an' ninety-one... Aw, bullshit!

Only took him like 43 seasons to do it.

The goat

This guy has a magic potion of youth.

Fucking insane we're witnessing history right before our eyes. He's the GOAT for me and I can't wait for the discourse in 10 years about how the league changed and how he couldn't be dominant in that era. Bro has been the GOAT since his rookie year. He's Incredible

Should get to 40k soon too. I'm sure it's a goal of his to be the only player in the 40s.

He must be well beyond a million, he could easily take a few hundred shots a day.

I would conservatively say 1,000 a week playing every day as a kid, that’s a million in just under 3 years

I want a post like this for every point he scores from here on out

I honestly think that Lebrons all time Points total is going to be one of the most unbreakable records in not just basketball but the big 4 sports. Excluding stuff like Cal Ripkins Iron Man iron man record which just isn't realistic given what we know about injuries and stuff nowadays.

First of all, LeBron is one of the greatest athletes of all time. He takes care of his body and managed to stay out of any trouble his whole career. His lomgevity is umprecedent in most sports bar what, Gretzky? I dont know. He's great. If he's not the GOAT, he's the clear second in terms of basketball.

But, I have to be the hummmm acshually 🤓 guy and put that last statement into a little more perspective..

The only thing I can thing of is breaths, swallowing, or blinking. Which means Lebron had shot more basketball shots than the average human does anything other than core functions in their life

An average human blinks between 14k to 17k times a day...

let's take the lower number.

A 30 year old human would have blinked, on average, 153,300,000.00 times.

so that's a lot more than 1,000,000...

I hate to do this now but LeBron>MJ
