Well... Isn't really THAT impressive when you see that 3 of those 5 players are C's and/or PF's and the other is Michael Jordan...

Good for him tho.

Well MJ had a shorter career and played with a secondary ball handler, while the rest of the other players are big men. Impressive but when it's put into perspective, it kinds of loses a bit of its luster.

^ agree with both posts.

Barring injury, when Lebron breaks the scoring record he will lead the top 5 in assists by a huge margin.

Not when, if...

Lets see how Lebron's style of play holds up in the long run. His game is mostly based on athleticism, he has hit his plateau and will likely not put up even close to the same numbers once he hits 30. Lets see how far these "fundamentals" so many on here claim he has get him when he is one step slower in a few years.

Lebrons just getting started, he's got a good 6 more productive seasons before he will start to decline in the least bit. He's basically entering his prime right about now, no way he's declining when he reaches 30.

Just because he has assist doesn't mean he's not a ball hog.

Here the rest of the world thought the Lakers forum was where this belonged... Hmmmm...

So how long until Lebron shatters this record too?

Lebron is better. just accept it, laker fans.

[Ezio]

The fact that he barely passed Kareem should be the emphasis here.

Also has the most shot attempts, and is the only player on that list to run his coach, and the best player on the team out of the team in one year. While being charged for rape.

Kobe's got a whole laundry list of problems.
