NBA records which will never be broken

[Pennebaker]

Inspired by LeBron passing Karl Malone on the total points ranking.

Post yours, I'll post 5 for now:

1. Wilt Chamberlain's 50,4 scoring average (1961/1962 season)

2. Wilt Chamberlain's 27,2 rebounding average (1960/1961 season)

3. John Stockton's 15.806 assists (career)

4. John Stockton's 3.265 steals (career)

5. Ben Simmons' 2.807 consecutive days playing Call of Duty (and counting)

never say never

Fastest foul out of game by Bubba Wells in 97.
2 minutes and 43 seconds game time.

Cal Bowdler's 7 Personal Fouls in one game should also be hard to break nowadays.

stockton steals and assists seem unattainable. combination of his longevity and high averages in both. cp3 is closest active in both categories and isn't even 3/4 of the way to stockton at age 36 on either one.

6-0 in the Finals

6 Finals MVPs

with the SAME team.

No one is doing that again, esp in this Player Empowerment era....

JR Smith and Pipe references.

Hakeem Olajuwon's block record. It wouldn't be his if blocks had been recorded for all of history, but players don't get block totals like he did anymore. Nobody has averaged 4 a game for almost 30 years, and the league leaders routinely average less than three these days. There are still a lot of drives, but the high number of threes and decline in post play give bigs fewer opportunities.

Most of the old defensive record will never be broken because defenses are punished now for what was acceptable in the past.

I will add Vince Carter to the mix as being the only player to play in 4 different decades.

That's pretty cool.

[AdagioPace]

Not as popular but an underrated one: Duncan's playoff double-doubles(164). You need 20 years of playoffs, long PS runs on average and 20y of goodness.

Lebron is at 130 among active players.

[Liam_Gallagher]

AC Green - 1,192 consecutive games played

Only missed 3 games in his 16 year career. Unreal.

Even played 83 games in 1997 lol.

What would be more impressive: 6-0 in the Finals or 6-6?

The bloke who did that must have been a great player!

Lebron most total points scored won’t be broken neither will Currys most threes made

wait until you hear of the guy that went 11-0

[falcolombardi]

Lebron most total points scored won’t be broken neither will Currys most threes made

both are breakable, the latter in particular

remember curry has had a fair amount of lost time with injuries and when he started 3 point ball was not what it is Now volume wise

a guy who is even 90% of the shooter curry is (volume + efficiency) but is an ironman health wise may beat him

lebron is gonna be harder but not impossible, durant would be toe to toe with lebron scoring pace if not for health for example

That’s what the blind eye see but Durant not gon have the longevity plus Bron started earlier.. it just not possible and neither is Currys.. just because so and so player can shoot threes at whatever volume doesn’t mean he’s gon be able to do it consistently over a whole career span.. Bro I just seen that Curry has 22 games that he made 10+ threes in a game.. and the 2nd on that list is klay with 5.. that is crazy

Actually Russell went 11-1.

He played 13 years,(the other year he did not play finals went to ECF) so it's really remarkable.

[sp6r=underrated]

Here's one that is completely unbreakable.

The 1983 76ers won an NBA title. They made 1 3 pointer in the entire playoffs.

What Kenny Walker did in this game

[Beethoven]

Kobe's 81 points by a guard.

Really? Players are scoring 50-60 like nothing, and Booker scored 70 a few seasons ago. Teams are scoring 150+pts quite often now. I feel another guard could easily get 81+ in the next decade with the current pace.

I do agree that someone(s) will definitely surpass 81 points in a game sometime in the near future. At how the game is played. The sad thing is, is that Kobe could have easily scored 90+ points that game.

[Tottery]

Given how the rules have changed, I don't see Stockton's career steals being topped. Not sure about his career assists...no one has beaten his single season record yet.
