With no AD who should be the main scorer then? :crazy:

Someone else who wasn't taking more shots than having points.

Oh I read your post above mine where you said it was 73 points in 2 nights, I used 399-73. But it was actually 83 points in 2 night.

I'm measuring until he hits Kareems number, not passing.

Lakers have 15 games until ASB, good chance LeBron goes to AS as all time scoring leader, I'm sure they'll have some ceremony for it there if it happens.
Next year AS he'll enter with 40K/10K/10K/2K/1K, greatness...

Might as well add Lebron just passed David Robinson on the all time rebounding list moving to 36th all time. Currently 21 rebounds away from Dr.J for 35th all time.

If he maintains his averages, LBJ will have the record in 7-8 games.9 games max

Predict what game it will be!

Crazy that we are this close.to seeing the record broken. At this pace, it should only take him around 8-10 games. I think he easily makes 40k points at this rate, and the record may never be broken.
