Good for him. Crazy record.

Kinda weird that this is going on in the middle of a game.

Pretty cool that Kareem was actually around to see it.

Is the game over
Quoting Nick from the now locked Ime thread:
Quote
At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

As tired as I am of hearing about this, this is a pretty neat moment to watch. Great moment in sports history.

In the major American sports, is there an individual record that is more heralded and prestigious than this? I'm not a huge fan of the other major sports, but the only one I can think of is the home run record in the MLB.

Good for LeBron. 100% deserved. To enter the NBA straight out of high school as the most hyped player ever, yet somehow managed to pass every possible expectation is amazing in itself.

Having said that, F the Lakers, and I hope they miss the playoffs.

It’s not a “most of” record but DiMaggio’s “56” is right up there.

If someone ever gets close, it’s going to be a media hellstorm.

Hit streak in baseball is biggest one. .400 in baseball also huge. Advent of 3 pointer and it’s usage has made this a bit less exciting much like the passing records in football.

I mean, yeah, sure. But that's not really the same thing. Even as an individual record, the number of rings is as much of a team accomplishment as an individual player accomplishment . Scoring (rebounding, home runs, goals, etc.) is much more focused on the individual's accomplishment.

So now you hammer OKC in live betting, right?  ;)

God no why? They could definitely win but LA desperately needs to win this and will probably get calls.

I mean, it was spelled out.  This was about Lebron getting the record. Once that was achieved, letdown was written all over it. This is an emotional game for the Lakers.

We’ll see what the last 3+ minutes brings but the writing was there.
