Allen Iverson shoots a career .425% from the field but dammit he averages more points than Kobe so he's a better scorer!
tbh he needs to make sure that the best total points are put ahead of him imho. total points > PPG. we're talking about pure scoring if i'm not mistaken.

crofl if Kobe played one game next season and score 30 points, then blew out his knee....
.........and Shawn Bradley came out of retirement and posted 31 points for the entire season........
..........then in "pure scoring" terms it's obvious that Shawn Bradley > Kobe because 31 > 30.
Vince and Amare.
Dirk is 6th among active leaders.
Shaq = 3rd best shooter of all time. Teh numbers are right here!!

lmao Melo > all-time leading scorer in history
Not in terms of career. It's not a single season thing. Best all time isn't for a single season.
6th = "BARELY in the top 10!"
Who are the other 3?
tbh I can't wait to see a game of HORSE between the statistically best shooters of all time: Artis Gilmore, Mark West, and Shaquille O'Neal
and Naruto is a 2nd tier anime behind Akira and Cowboy Bebop.
It just went right by me that he just said Vince Carter is a better scorer right now than Dirk Nowitzki.
Really. Vince Carter. Really.
In terms of pure scoring, that would be correct. Had Kareem retired earlier he would be right up there.
Kareem played almost 20 years. The last 3 have to be factored in. Without those, he's right up there.
In terms of total points, he's the king.
If Shawn Bradley played longer and scored more but only averaged 18 a game compared to Kareems 22+, is Bradley now a better pure scorer? Longevity isn't part of the equation. It can be if that question is asked.
tbh the other night at the rec center i dropped like 30 PPG when the numbers are prorated to NBA formulas. Mono > Dirk as a pure scorer.
gots don't count.
It went right by you because I didn't say that. Dirk is 6th, Vince is 8th or 9th among active players.
You guys need to take some stats classes to learn how to ask the right questions to get the answers you want.
Subjective statements should not be scrutinized without asking for definitions.
Don't act like you've ever taken a stats class when you've been diagnosed as mentally re ed, with it on display.
And you are just one emo kind of racist stupid.
lol I remember back in 2nd grade during Field Day I finished in 6th place in the "Hit a football across the football field with a hockey stick" compe ion. I remember tellin the 9th place finisher "Don't worry man, you did good, I mean look at me I was 6th I BARELY made it to the top 10 compared to you"
Prove it.
