The Mount Rushmore of scoring
Post Body

Which players would you guys personally put on your Mount Rushmore of scoring as the best pure bucket getters of all time? Here's what mine looks like...

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar:

  • 2x scoring champion
  • NBA record for career points scored
  • 17 straight seasons of 20 PPG, 4 seasons of 30 PPG
  • career average of 24.6 PPG on 7.1 relative TS
  • led playoffs in scoring 5 times
  • 11 playoffs runs of 25 PPG

Michael Jordan:

  • 10x scoring champion, most scoring titles by a single player
  • career average of 30.12 PPG, NBA record, on 3.5 relative TS
  • 8 seasons of 30 PPG
  • career playoffs average of 33.4 PPG, NBA record
  • averaged 30 PPG in every playoffs besides rookie season

Allen Iverson:

  • Keep in mind he's only 5'11!!!
  • 4x scoring champion
  • career average of 26.7 PPG on -1.0 relative TS
  • 10 straight seasons of 25 PPG
  • career playoffs average of 29.7 PPG
  • led playoffs in scoring twice

Kevin Durant:

  • career average of 27.0 PPG on 6.9 relative TS
  • 4x scoring champion, including 3 consecutive
  • 2nd most efficient high volume scorer of all time
  • 12 consecutive season of 25 PPG (active streak)
  • led playoffs in scoring 5 times
  • career playoffs average of 29.5 PPG

Obviously this is personal preference, there are several other great scorers you may have on your personal Mount Rushmore (Kobe Bryant, Wilt Chamberlain, George Gervin, James Harden, LeBron James, Adrian Dantley, etc). Who's on your Mount Rushmore?
