The All-Time Stats List Thread

Self-explanatory thread.

I swear that I am not obsessed with Dirk Nowitzki, but this one happens when you play a lot of games: he will pass Elgin Baylor in both assists and rebounds before the end of the year. But I don’t think he’ll pass the guy ahead of that guy in either category.

Or maybe I am confusing Elgin Baylor was someone else. I closed the window already.

Nowitzki passed Stockton in games played two games ago.

LeBron James is 118 free throws behind Nowitski. Would he pass Dirk this season if they both played every game for their respective teams here on out? Winner gets sixth place.

Long term question: James Harden is 598 free throws away from well Chamberlain. Kevin Durant is 360 away from Wilt.

Durant averages 6.3 free throws made per game. Harden averages 10.

Who will pass wilt first?

My guess is Durant because I would assume that Harden’s average will go down next season. Maybe they will try to address his average in some way. Either the teams will adapt or the rules well. Or maybe neither.

Also, it seems like every other game they talk about Harden being injured in some way but playing. One day that might catch up with him. Or maybe they’re exaggerating.

Vince Carter is 8 games behind Karl Malone in games played. He needs to average 0.6 games per game to pass Malone.

 

[MHSL82]

Jeff Hornacek is 154th in the list of three point made shots. 55 current players are ahead, many near passing. Game has changed. Hornacek did more other things than some.

You don't make sense.

Reposting my Wade request to @MHSL82.

Can you do a blocked shots tracker on how many regular season blocks he needs to average to pass Airball Jordan, like you're doing with Nowitzki and points?

 

[MHSL82]

You don't make sense.

It is supposed to not make sense. You can’t average below one game per game played. One could read that to mean that they would have to play 60% of their team’s games, but that was supposed to be a joke.

Thanks. I thought there was a chance, that I wasn't getting it.

Reposting my Wade request to @MHSL82.

Maybe it was more likely at the time that you first requested it, but he is 15 behind Jordan and 16 to pass him with 16 games to go. I don’t think he’ll make it. He is getting older and I don’t know if he has missed games this year.

Thanks. If he was playing every day, and 34 - 36 mins a game, it would be more likely.

Wade got a block tonight, so he is now 14 behind with 15 games to go.

Maybe he's inspired by our thread, to set another record?

 

[nuraman00]

Wade had a bruised right hip, but still got a block.

@nuraman00 , why didn’t you tell me that Rick Barry averaged 24.8 points per game? I knew he was a good free-throw shooter, but I didn’t know we averaged a lot of points like that.

I only found out because an announcer on the radio said he had a 96% free-throw percentage for his career. Obviously, that’s not correct. But I wanted to see what it was. Unless I am looking up the wrong person, it was 89.3%.

Wow, that radio announcer was way off. Unless he meant for one season.

Rick Barry didn't even had a 96% year. His best was .947. He lead the league in free throw shooting 3 years in a row to end his career.

Interesting that you just learned Rick Barry was a good scorer. He's like Adrian Dantley to the Warriors, that type of great player.

I liked Rick Barry's co-hosted radio show. The radio station replaced him with someone else, around 2006. He has a no BS style, but is not over the top either.

There was something I was thinking about today, that I was going to post, under the "why didn't you tell me" series. But now I can't remember what it was. And I guess you beat me to something, with that regards.

But I wouldn't have thought that you could find surprising news too.

Oh, now I remember what it was. @MHSL82, why didn't you tell me that Nintendo released a NES Classic (a re-release of their NES system) in 2016? I just found out about it. I still have my original NES. With this re-release, you can play games and use save points too. I don't know if you have to buy re-released versions of the games, or if old versions of the games would be able to use the feature. I know you have to have the NES Classic version of the NES, and not the original NES. And they re-released 30 games. But I don't know if any of the games that they didn't re-release, can still use save points, in their NES Classic re-release. Hopefully it can.

I knew he had scored a lot in certain seasons, but I didn’t know his career average was so high. Karl Malone’s career average is 25 point something. Of course, Malone played longer, so his average is harder to sustain.
