It's been 20 years and still hasn't made the list.
“Join” is generous lol, his numbers are below everyone on this list
"Joining" is generous, and his numbers are lower than all the people on this list.
notice how curry isn’t here
Notice that Curry is not here.
He passes the ball
He passes.
MJ averaging that much in that era is insane.
In those days, Jordan was still averaging so many points per game, which was crazy.
Kobe did it in the hardest defensive era…
Kobe Bryant did it in the strongest defensive era...
Not really mj era was harder
Not really, the Jordan era was stronger defensively.
Here I am being amazed that no matter what top stat in the NBA there is MJ is still on top
Here, I'm surprised that no matter what top stats the NBA has, Jordan is still on top.
Bro look at Luka and Harden, so inspirational
Brothers look at Luka and Harden, it's so inspiring.
They didn't show this when embiid was leading but as soon as he drops .1 below they show it for Luka
When Embiid leads the league in points per game, they don't show that, but as soon as his points per game drop by 0.1, they show Luca's numbers.
Embiid was leading for like 2 weeks lol and he missed more games
Embiid averaged a scoring lead for about 2 weeks per game, and he missed more games.
Damn... mj avg over 35 two consecutive seasons... i didnt even know he avg 37.1 wowww learn't something... and dats against elite defenders all over, with less 3's and body contact.
Damn it...... Jordan has averaged more than 35 points per game for two consecutive seasons... I didn't even know his highest scoring average was 37.1 points per game, wow, that's not going to be learned..... And it's less three-point and equal physical contact when facing elite-level defense.
I’d love so see how these numbers change if you take away points from free throws
I'm curious to see how that data changes if you take away the free throw score.
Harden arguably a top 4 scorer of all time
Harden is arguably the top four scorers in history.
Michael Jordan did this when no one was shooting 3’s AND won DPOY in that 1987-88 season…
Michael Jordan did this with no one shooting threes, and he also won the DPOY in the 1987-88 season.
