In 1946, the NBA's predecessor, the "American Regional Basketball League", BAA, was at risk of collapse at any time, and in order to ensure its sustainable development, they chose to merge the low-level league that was on the verge of bankruptcy and finally survived. Until now, through 75 years of development, the NBA has become the basketball game with the strongest gold absorption ability and the highest comprehensive influence in the world, leaving many classic moments during this period.
As the five most basic statistics of basketball: points, rebounds, assists, blocks, and steals, these five angles can measure a player's overall ability on the court. To make this list, excellent basketball skills are just the foundation, avoid injuries to prolong the career is indispensable, let's take a look at the current king of various data:
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > all-time scorer: "Skyhook" Jabbar</h1>
Career average: 24.6 points, 11.2 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game
55.9% shooting percentage and 72.1% free throw shooting percentage
The top 10 of the current scoring list:
10. Anthony 27370 points
9. Moses. Malone 27409 points
8. O'Neill 28596 points
7. Chamberlain 31419 points
6. Nowitzki 31560 points
5, Jordan 32292 points
4, Kobe Bryant 33643 points
3. James 35,367 points
2. Carl. Malone 36928 points
1. Abdul-Jabbar 38,387 points
In the 1969 draft, Abdul-Jabbar was picked by the Bucks with a first-hand pick, and his height of 2.18 meters and his arm span of 2.32 meters quickly made him the core of the team, averaging 28.8 points, 14.5 rebounds and 4.1 assists per game in the rookie season, and won the title of the best rookie without suspense.
In the 1970-71 season, the Bucks got the "big O" Robertson (the all-time triple-double king) in the free market, and with the help of this all-rounder, the second-year Jabbar averaged 31.6 points, 16 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game in the regular season, led the team to a record of 66 wins and 16 losses (including 20 consecutive wins), successfully elected the regular season MVP and scoring champion, and the Bucks were unbeatable in the playoffs, and finally won the championship of the season.
In his first four seasons in the league, Abdul-Jabbar won the regular season MVP three times, but with the retirement of "Big O" Robertson, the Bucks' strength dropped sharply, and the 74-75 season only achieved a record of 38 wins and 44 losses. In the summer of 1975, Abdul-Jabbar took the initiative to ask for a transfer, and the Bucks knew that they could not keep the big center, so they reached a deal with the Los Angeles Lakers, and the Lakers sent 4 main rotation players to get the "sky hook" Jabbar.
In the first four seasons with the Lakers, Abdul-Jabbar still maintained a high level of play, winning two regular season MVP, but the disadvantages of the Lakers' lineup never made them finally win the championship in the playoffs, until the summer of 1979, when they selected Magic Johnson with a draft. At this point, the Lakers began a brilliant career of ten years, 8 finals in 10 years, 5 championships, And Abdul-Jabbar played a stable role as a team center.
In the summer of 1989, the 42-year-old Abdul-Jabbar announced his retirement, ending his illustrious NBA career. As a "data predator", Abdul-Jabbar has won 6 championships, 6 regular season MVPs, 19 All-Stars, and 2 scoring champions in his 20-season journey.
At present, The position of Abdul-Jabbar's historical scoring champion is in jeopardy, the gap between James and him is only 3,000 points, and the former is currently in an efficient competitive state on the field, as long as health is guaranteed, there is a high probability that it will be surpassed in the 22-23 season!
<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > all-time assist king: Stockton</h1>
Career average: 13.1 points, 10.5 assists and 2.2 steals per game
Shooting 51.5 percent from the field and 38.4 percent from three-point range
The top 10 assists list at a glance:
10. Gary. Payton 8966 times
9. Isaiah. Thomas 9061 times
8. James 9703 times
7, Robertson 9887 times
6. Magic Johnson 10141 times
5. Paul 10,275 times
4. Mark. Jackson 10334 times
3. Nash 10335 times
2, Kidd 12091 times
1, Stockton 15806 times
In the 1984 draft, Stockton was selected by the Jazz with the 16th pick in the first round, and the backcourt player who was only 1.85 meters tall and weighed 78 kilograms, with a superb ball dealer and ironman-like body (19 years of career and 17 seasons of full attendance), left a number of unsurpassed records in the NBA everywhere, and he and Carl. Malone's combination of interior and exterior has allowed the Jazz to remain among the Western Conference powerhouses for many years, and the Jazz have not missed a playoff since he joined.
Looking back at Stockton's 19-year career, his efficiency on the offensive end is highly efficient, there is no senseless offensive choice, the mid-range shooting and three-point shooting are very stable, but in the personal offensive and team tandem, he chose the latter, focusing more on the assists and defensive ends, which is a typical example of sacrificing the ego to achieve a team.
Stockton, who has a bookish temperament, can become a superstar in the NBA in the last century of muscle confrontation, which is inseparable from his various small actions on the court, "pinching the waist, top crotch, touching the eyes" such as the referee can blow or not blow fouls, will not let the opponent suffer serious injuries, but will disturb the attacker's mentality, Jordan, Thomas and other superstars have publicly expressed their dislike of Stockton's style of play in front of the media.
As the ceiling of the assist list, Stockton leads second place Kidd with 3715 assists, averaging ten assists per game for the entire season, and the master of possession Kidd has to play at least four and a half seasons to surpass, and his record really does it: no one before, no one after that!
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > historical rebounding king: Chamberlain</h1>
Career average: 30.1 points, 22.9 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game
54% shooting percentage and 51.1% free throw shooting percentage

5. Moses. Malone 16212 times
4. Hayes 16279 times
3. Jabbar 17440 times
2, Russell 21620 times
1, Chamberlain 23924 times
In 1959, the 23-year-old Chamberlain entered the league as a professional basketball player, 2.16 meters tall, 115 kilograms of weight, 2.38 meters of arm span, with an incredible bounce speed, these visible static dynamic talents allowed Chamberlain to gallop the field. The rookie averaged 37.6 points and 27 rebounds per game in his first season, setting a height unmatched by rookies, and with his excellent personal ability, he successfully won the regular season MVP.
Chamberlain's madness came in his third year as a rookie, when he played in 80 regular-season games for the Warriors, averaging 50.4 points, 25.7 rebounds per game, and contributing a 100-point miracle, and the league expanded the three-second zone from 12 feet to 16 feet in order to limit his dominance of terror on the inside, changing the rules of the league by himself.
And the field of rebounding, through the list of the top ten in history, we can see that there is no active player, the current popularity of the small ball era makes the traditional center become dispensable, the rebounding competition has also been replaced by the conversion of offense, Chamberlain's title of the historical rebounding king is afraid that no one can shake it in the past 50 years!
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > historical cap king: Olajuwon</h1>
Career average: 21.8 points, 11.1 rebounds and 3.1 blocks per game

In the summer of 1984, Olajuwon participated in the NBA draft, and was finally signed by the Rockets, who were lucky enough to win the lottery, averaging 20.6 points, 11.9 rebounds and 2.7 blocks per game in the rookie season, and was successfully selected to the league's best defensive second team, and in the rookie competition of the season, he lost to Jordan, the "god of basketball" who averaged 28.5 points, 6.5 rebounds, 5.9 assists and 2.4 steals per game.
In the following seasons, Olajuwon led the team to the Finals (unfortunately lost to the mighty Celtics), also won the rebounding king and the block king in the personal honor competition, and won a four-double of 18 points, 16 rebounds, 10 assists and 11 blocks in the 1989-90 game against the Bucks, but the team could not touch the championship trophy due to lineup problems, and this situation continued until 1994.
In this year's Finals, the Rockets struggled to beat the Knicks in the game of seven, Olajuwon averaged 26.9 points per game in the series, and opponent Ewing averaged only 18.9 points per game, and Olajuwon was elected FMVP without suspense. This season, Olajuwon won the regular season MVP, Finals MVP and Defensive Player of the Year awards, becoming the first foreign player in league history to win an MVP award.
The 1993–95 season was destined to be the days for Olajuwon and the Rockets, and in the summer of 1995, the Rockets swept O'Neal's Magic 4-0 in the Finals to win two consecutive titles, averaging 33 points, 10.8 rebounds and 2.8 blocks per game in the Olajuwon Series, and was uncontroversially re-elected as FMVP. But then the competitive state of "Big Dream" began to decline, and the peak of his career stayed in these two seasons forever.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > historical steal king: Stockton</h1>
Career average: 13.1 points, 10.5 rebounds and 2.2 steals per game
