Statistics NBA-All Time-Points: I looked at this and found that Julius Erving had scored 30026 pts in his career, unfortunately 11062 of the points were scored in the ABA. Do you think the NBA should had combined those records? Why not; these were professional basketball players period. Consider if they had, Erving’s stats considered from the NBA, he would had been ranked 8th in all time scoring. It’s a travesty, that they didn’t include all of the stats together.

How about George Gervin with 26295 pts, he would have ranked about 16th on this list. Than you had Dan Issel who had about 27482. Issel would have been ranked around 11th all time. By the way Issel had the ABA all time record for a year in scoring; he scored 3285 in 71-72 campaign. Lebron could be looking at that Karl Malone record soon. He is only 1,841 away. That Kareem record looks pretty far. Lebron could be looking at another season of good health if he could average about 20 plus points a game, and another year and a half to get to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar record, but is only if he has that stamina to last that long. You got to remember the big fella was in the league until he was over 40. Who do you think will be next to get into the milestone of of the top 5 scorers?
