Kobe ties Patrick Ewing for 15th on all-time scoring list


Recommended Posts

It shouldn’t surprise us anymore, but it still definitely does.

 

Kobe has tied Patrick Ewing for 15th on the NBA’s all-time scoring list with 24,815 points. We are lucky to witness one of the all time greats continue to define his legacy and put his mark on the league as one of the deadliest scorers in NBA history every day.

 

As you can see, he is pursuing the Lakers legend Jerry West for spot #14, up next.

 

14 Jerry West 25,192

15 Kobe Bryant 24,815

15 Patrick Ewing 24,815

Wow top 15 is pretty unreal for only being 30 or whatever he is. It is amazing how fast LeBron is goign to get there really because he on a similar pace as Kobe but he came out of the gate at 18 dropping 20. Imagine if Kobe came out of the gate and got those types of points his first two years? Damn..... Also was just looking at what he is on pace for this year, could wind up passing Alex English at this rate, didn't even know he was averaging 30 a game this year.

 

Looking at the entire list Kobe will definitely be pushing for top 5 all time by the end of next year. Kobe will definitely surpass MJ as the 3rd all-time leading scorer though, all he needs to do is average 20 a game the next 6 years (not even including this one) for all 82 games and he will be past MJ.

 

It will be interesting if he becomes the all-time leader, will definitely make the MJ-Kobe debate that much more interesting and controversial.
