2720513, The LeBron James Living, Breathing Record-Breaking Machine Post
Posted by Vex_id, Thu Sep-17-20 03:41 PM
LeBron just broke the all-time record for most All-NBA Selections (16); and already held the record for most All-NBA First Team Selections (13).

This record comes just about a week after Bron set a new NBA record for an indelible milestone: Most Playoff Wins of All-Time.

At this point - it's almost silly how anomalous LeBron's greatness is - and it's difficult to even keep a tab on all the records being broken.

Here's a list of other notable milestones/records Kang has shattered:

Most career assists by a forward (9,021).
Most consecutive double-digit scoring games: 959 games.
Most times being named Conference Player of the Week (64 times).
Most times being named Conference Player of the Month (46 times).
Most points scored in All-Star games (385).
Most three-point field goals made in All-Star games (38).
Most field goals made in All-Star games (159).
Most times being a starter in All-Star games (16)
Most playoff games with at least 20 points (212).
Most playoff games scoring at least 30 points (110 times).
Most playoff games with at least 20 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists (20).
Most playoff games with at least 30 points, 10 rebounds, and 5 assists (37).
Most playoff games with at least 40 points, 5 rebounds, and 5 assists (18).
Most triple-doubles with at least 30 points in the NBA Finals (4).
Most NBA Finals games with at least 30 points, 10 rebounds, and 5 assists (9).
Most defensive rebounds in the NBA Finals (395).
Most triple-doubles in the NBA Finals (10).
