The 3 point era is the reason why Lebron passed Kareem on the All Time Scoring List

I wonder if any 80-90s shooters regret not taking more threes

Still doesn't answer my question. I'll ask again

Which is easier to attempt, a 3 point shot, or a 2 point shot in the paint?

They call him LeBulldoze for a reason, i would say a 2 pointer in the paint is easier for him...thats where he scored the most of his points.

but for arguments sake, lets say the answer was a 3 point shot...then what?

We really suggesting that he benefited from his biggest weakness/obstacle? No player would benefit and flourish more under old school rules. If you put the 3 genie back in thr lamp and eliminate the zone, Bron still has the scoring record AND like 8 chips.

Kareem was in uncharted territory after braking Wilt 's record. No one was playing for 20 years back then with 7 game series in the first round or playing with two other top 5 picks in their draft class. Kareem has to have one of the best basketball careers when you consider the above and his college resume.
