LeBron James efficiently scored 56 points and 10 rebounds in the Game of the Lakers' 124-116 victory over the Warriors on March 6, Beijing time, which became the key to the Lakers' end of the losing streak. This is the fourth time in James' NBA career that he has scored 50+ points and 10+ rebounds in the regular season, so how many times can he rank in the long history of the NBA?
The Lakers, who were at a low point, faced the Warriors led by Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Andrew Wiggins, three All-Star starters of the year, and James, who turned 37, once again carried the whole game, shooting 19 of 31 shots in 38 minutes, shooting 61.3%, including 6 of 11 three-pointers, 12 of 13 free throw opportunities, 56 points, 10 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 block. The Warriors Big Three only scored 51 points in total when they all played more than 30 minutes!
James, who turned 37, tied Trae Young's record for the highest single-game score in the NBA regular season this season, and became the fifth player in the league to score 50+10 in a single game this season, which is the fourth time in James' NBA career that he has scored 50+ points and 10+ rebounds in the regular season.
NBA historical super centers such as "Sharks" Shack O'Neal and "Big Dream" Olajuwon have only had 50+ points and 10+ rebounds in two regular season games in their entire NBA careers, and even the king of statistics " Oscar Robertson " and "Stone Buddha" Tim Duncan, who is recognized as the number one forward in NBA history, have only one regular season performance.
Among the NBA active players, only one person has scored 50+ points and 10+ rebounds more times in the regular season than James, and that is James Harden, who has performed this 8 times in the regular season. It is worth mentioning that Alphabet Brother, Anthony Davis and Wei Shao have so far tied for third place in the active duty with such performances in 3 games, while Embiid, Cousins, Durant, Jimmy Butler and Carmelo Anthony are tied for sixth place in the active duty with such performances twice.
In NBA history, in addition to James, Rick Barry, Bob McAdoo and Moses Malone all got 50+10+ rebounds in the regular season 4 times, tied for 7th place in NBA history; Harden tied for third place in NBA history with Abbab and Abbay and Michael Jordan with 8 such performances, Elgin Baylor performed this 16 times in the regular season, and this NBA historical record belongs to "big coach" Chamberlain, A total of 118 regular season games to get such data is still a nightmare that future generations can't match.
The 37-year-old James can still get 50+10 data when facing the Warriors, which shows that he has full firepower, but whether the Lakers can get out of this predicament is still unknown, after all, the other players of the Lakers have not yet stepped forward, and we cannot expect James to have such an anti-heavenly performance. For now alone, the Lakers' more realistic goal this season remains a playoff ticket.
