70 games a year
36 mpg for 20 years straight
27ppg, 20 years straight.
Nobody is easily doing that.

Listen….
It’s most likely not going happen. You and

are rigjtI wouldn’t bet on Wemby or Luka doing it. Hell no.
I’m just saying Modern Medicine is evolving.
Players of all sports are coming back from compound fractures (Paul George Olympic injury) in 3 1/2 months now. Anything is possible as Medicine evolves.

Basketball commentators really need to stop this “the analytics say don’t do this” when a player who made their living on middys shoots one. Like who upstairs thinks making this incorrect statement over and over helps advance the game?

If another top player of all-time remains relatively healthy up to Year 20+, Bron is going to be Wilt 2.0 with all the mentions as the only other player to do it

Yep. Guys retire because they can no longer physically recover in between games. It’s incredibly difficult to physically get up for an NBA game for at least 6 months every year, for 20 straight years.70 games a year
36 mpg for 20 years straight
27ppg, 20 years straight.
Nobody is easily doing that
Its an absolutely insane physical endeavor & why this is such an amazing achievement.
There are guys in the league right now & will be in the future who are talented enough to get you 25+ a night for 10, 11, 12 years
But, 17, 18, 19, maybe more?
Impossible to project, much less guarantee

And? if you play for 20 years, I would hope that your three-point shot improves. If you look at that list, it’s more of a product volume shooting.. not to mention that LeBron has the worst three-point shooting percentage in the top 21.

It’s not even just about longevity though. You literally cannot have any drop off in your game. Hell, Bron is averaging MORE PPG in these last 2 years than he has in over a decade.

I agree with all this tho. Think what I said got misconstrued.
Science will evolve. We don’t know what’s going to happen.
Longevity may very well end up being commonplace.
LeBron is insane. He’s mastered it before anyone else.

Season might get cut short by like 10 games in the coming years too. Will only make things more difficult.

we’re also watching an era of basketball where the NBA is catering to scoring more than ever. 40 point games are the new 30 point games.

- 800
- 49,740

And that’s because they’re trying to look out for their bodies long term.
I don’t have a problem with that.
