LeBron on the All Time Scoring List

gocavs23 · Post #1 » by **gocavs23** » Sun Oct 12, 2008 3:05 am

Hey everybody, I'm new here but read the boards from time to time. The other day I thought it would be interesting to see where LeBron stands on the active list of scoring leaders, but then I got a little carried away and tried to figure out where he is all time. I figure it could be fun to watch him skyrocket up the list with the season coming up soon. Right now he stands (by my unofficial calculation) at #252 of all time with 10,689. Here's the next few names to look forward to him catching.

Kenny Anderson 10,789
Antonio McDyess (active) 10,795
Elden Campbell 10,805
Cliff Robinson 10,823
John Starks 10,829
Bingo Smith 10,882
Alvin Robertson 10,882
Don Nelson 10,898
Ricky Sobers 10,902
Vernon Maxwell 10,912
Dan Majerle 10,925
Mike Gminski 10,953
Mike Woodson 10,981
Mark Price 10,989

I have the rest of the list on an excel file (man do i have too much down time at work), so I'll try to keep the thread going as he moves up through some of those big names. I couldn't find an official all time list published anywhere, so i dont know if i wasted my time figuring it out, but what the hell. Either way this guy is a freak for being up so high on the list at age 23.

Go Cavs

Wow!

It's hard to believe Price is surrounded by that many bums

I'm sorry... did I say bums.. I meant serviceable pros

You have to assume that LeBron will score over 2000 points this season so you he would leap alot more than those players you listed.

Well yeah he's obviously going to pass way more than the players I listed... but I wasn't feeling much like writing all of them out. He very well could jump 100 spots throughout the season, so I figured I'd expand upon the list as the season plays out and he's actually moving up.

Just proves how awful the Cavs had been at drafting and keeping star-level talent all these decades. Of course injuries play a role to some extent too.

LeBron's 41 points tonight moved him up to 10,818, passing Kenny Anderson (10,789), Elden Campbell (10,805), and Antonio McDyess (10,809). He's up to #249 all time now for those counting, lol... next up... Cliff Robinson (10,823) and John Starks (10,829)

What is the list of guys over 11,000 points? Barring injury, he'll pass all the guys in the original post within a couple games.
