Lol! Exactly
Why don't people get this? It's not about passing someone. The question should always be "oh yeah? Well how long did it take you to pass that record?"
When you pass someone's record in less time is a real feat! Stop the nonsense please!
Since this post by me went unnoticed (conveniently by you)... I'll post it again.
Jordan did his in 24537 shots.
Kobe needs 859 points to pass with 352 less shots..
If you look at last season the lockout shortened year, he scored 1616 points in 1336 shots.... By that measure he scores 1 point every 1.209 shots.. That's also him shooting 2.7% worse than his career level..
You carry that 1 point for every 1.209 shots over and Kobe scores the go ahead bucket 710 shots from now.
It would take Kobe 358 more shots than Jordan to get to 32,293 and 3rd all-time.... 358 shots if you go to his largest FGA attempt season in the past 5 years, which was last year (23 FGA / game) 358 shots = 15.5 games. We are talking about an extra 16 games worth of shots.
Not really as wide of a gap as you are making it look.
