As the dream factory of the NBA, which has been established for 75 years, has not only fulfilled countless dreams but also witnessed records being broken time and again. Records are meant to be surpassed, but some seem destined to stand unbroken. Today, let's take a look at some NBA records from the 75-year history that seem impossible to break.
John Stockton's historic assist record of 15,806 assists.
Chris Paul has recently surpassed 10,000 assists, ranking first among active players. However, Stockton's record remains untouchable, especially in the era of small ball. This record has long been sealed.
Michael Jordan's record of winning the scoring title 10 times.
While many players can achieve the scoring title, maintaining dominance becomes increasingly challenging. Current players like Kevin Durant have won it four times at most, with others like James Harden and Russell Westbrook achieving it twice. The ten-time scoring title record set by Jordan stands as an enduring miracle.
Wilt Chamberlain's season average of 50.4 points.
In the past 30 years, players like Harden, Jordan, and Kobe achieved season averages of 35 points, but Chamberlain shattered this limit in 1962, averaging an incredible 50.4 points per game. Breaking this record would require a player to change the game statistics significantly, surpassing half of the team's total.
LeBron James' accomplishment of leading both teams in five statistical categories during the 2016 NBA Finals.
This record can only be achieved in the Finals, eliminating at least 90% of players. James achieved leading both teams in points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks in the 2016 Finals, contributing to a remarkable 1-3 comeback.
Bill Russell's eleven NBA championships.
Despite Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson creating numerous NBA Finals records, Bill Russell's achievement of eleven championships stands as one of the most impressive. Russell, the core of the Celtics, played a crucial role in making the Celtics the most successful team in NBA history. |
