LeBron James seemingly breaks records or achieves milestones every time he touches the floor. Tonight is no different. James needs just 3 points to score the 15,000th point of his career. James would become the youngest
player in the NBA at 25 days, 79 days old to reach 15,000 points (Kobe Bryant - 27 years, 136 days old).
Congratulations, LeBron!

Question
With the emergence of Kevin Durant this season, who thinks he will break the records LeBron has set? Or will basketball fans have to wait one or two more generations to see a LeBron version 2 before those records are broken?

It's a good question...
Durant is off to an incredible start as well. In the end, it’s all about Rings…LeBron needs to start collecting them…

Not a chance....
Durant had a year of college….so unless he goes absolutely nuts and scores a ridiculous amount of points to make up for that year, he’ll never get to LeBron’s youngest to (number) points records.

Exactly.
He might very well be the last in the books until the NBA allows high school graduates to go straight into the NBA like Kobe and LeBron did. No way Durant touches hime.

Its not math skills its editing skills. E-mails, twitter, and blogs have done much to lower the quality of our editing in media everywhere.

I didn’t know we stopped capitalizing.
Horrible. Some of these commentators can’t even use the shift key.

Do you mean 25 years?
Serious question, I’m not like Agent X up there
