Absolutely.

 

[Rakim Allah]

Just another insecure Jordan Stan thread

I never would have thought Bean hitting 30,000 would cause THIS much commotion.

 

[Killer Instinct]

These dudes are legit frustrated. that Kobe hit 30K. Got nikkas acting like cacs after Obama beat Romney out for office.

That's cuz Jordan was more of a ballhog.

kobe has career fg% of 45 jordans is 50

Hmm, I going to have to weigh in on this and say I've never heard of a coach say give the ball to Kobe and get the hell out of the way. We've heard that said with Michael though.

True, but to be fair tho', that was Doug Collins. Hence why he got fired and Phil took over.

why would anyone be frustrated? dude's been in the league 17 years it would be a tragedy if he didnt have 30k.
same way if lebron and durant dont have at least 30k at his age they should be put in prison

Yea cause you know...every player that's played for 17 years have 30k

Idiotic

Taking it one game at a time is the way to go. For KD. But I can’t help but dream ahead. Through KD’s first five seasons, he’s averaged 1,996 points a year. Including the fact that the next 6-9 seasons will be the absolute prime of KD’s career, let’s just pencil him in for 2,175 points a year for the next nine seasons (that’s 26.5 ppg over an 82 game schedule, which is about KD’s career average). That puts Durant passing 30,000 a little after he turns 33. One year earlier than Kobe, who of course is the youngest ever.

God forbid KD get injured that's just coasting at his career average if he averages 28ppg+ he could be 31- 32 years old at 30000 pts . Imagine if KD was a non efficient gunner

You didn't have to say that with Kobe, it was already understood.

youngest to 30 != fastest to 30, or most prolific.
wilt, jordan, kareem, and malone all did it in fewer games with higher scoring averages at the time they reached 30k
wilt: 31.9 ppg @ 30k
jordan: 31.3 ppg @ 30k
kareem: 27.4 ppg @ 30k
malone: 26 ppg@ 30k
kobe: 25.4 ppg @ 30k

but dudes here gota be 17 years old tryna argue directly or indirectly that kobe is in the same class as the g.o.a.t.. im gona have to teach some of you the meaning of respect

Seasons shooting under 50% fg:
Kobe- 16
jordan- 9

seasons shooting under 48% fg
kobe- 16
jordan- 5

seasons shooting over 50% fg
kobe: 0
Jordan: 6

seasons shooting over 52%
kobe: 0
jordan: 4


and this is just fg %, when you look at scoring overall its a wrap. and dont even mention defense in these discussions.

its just so so vulgar, like wa wa warranted that

Anyway, this is sad that people can't just appreciate greatness when. hey see it. This baby generation is something else. I love Jordan's game. I love Kobe's game. I love LeBron's game. I'm a fan of bball first and foremost. The fact that all of these LeBron idiots are trying to discredit a great moment in basketball with some "bu bu but LeBron's gonna be younger than Kobe when he gets 30,000" is ridiculous. If you can't respect great basketball, that just tells me that you aren't even a basketball fan to begin with, and I don't respect your opinion on shyt.

I feel you on that shyt! Enjoy greatness when you see it. You don't have to be a fan of the man but 30k is legit. Ain't no bums on that short list. Everybody who's scored 30k in their career at least shot 50% for at least one season of their remarkable career....hold up wait....
