Super duper washed! How’s Gary Clark doing? “Yeah but the advanced stats PIPM, RIPM, GIGEM, RAPTOR, TRICERATOPS say Gary Clark is just factually better than Carmelo!” Carmelo Anthony passes Hakeem Olajuwon for 11th on NBA's all-time scoring list Carmelo Anthony moved into 11th place on the NBA's all-time scoring list, passing Hall of Famer Hakeem Olajuwon by hitting a pull-up jumper with 9 minutes, 46 seconds left in the fourth quarter of the Portland Trail Blazers' 125-121 win at the Minnesota Timberwolves on Saturday night. Olajuwon, a two-time NBA champion and 12-time All-Star with the Houston Rockets, ended his career with 26,946 points. "We all know what Hakeem did for the game," Anthony said during an on-court interview. "The mark he left on this game is well beyond precedent." Anthony finished with 26 points for Portland as he took over the game down the stretch. "I'm just happy to be here," Anthony said. "I'm still here is all that matters. I'm able to continue to play. I'm still here and I'm still climbing." Anthony's performance Saturday put him at 26,955 points for his career. Next up on the NBA's scoring list is Elvin Hayes in 10th with 27,313 points.
If that happened in MSG, Patrick Ewing would try to lead the boy back to his parents, and the MSG security would have tackled them both.
Yeah let's **** over hall of famer and invest time into Bruno Cabolco. Carmelo would be the best player on current roster if you think about it, I know Wood hype train is big but that dude can't defend parked car just like Carmelo, while Anthony is better scorer and has way more experience. Like 15 years at the top compared to 15 games of 25ppg of Wood. Both can't playmake too. I think Melo rebounds better too. It's all about the hype and media in this nba circus. How is Isaiah without contract while Clemons has one?
Top 3 most skilled player in terms of triple threat ever. But he isn't step-in back for 3 enough for some clutchfans lol nba is a joke rn
Seeing he passed Hakeem made me think, damn the inefficient chucker has scored THAT many points?! I had to look a little deeper and my assumption was confirmed. Melo had an elite skill. Shooting the ball a lot. Took him roughly 600 more shots than Dream to pass him. Look through that top 20 of all time scorers and even though he played in a much more efficient era compared to most on the list, he is one of the least efficient on there. A fine member of the all Iverson team. Players who will be remembered as WAY better than they actually were because they were popular.
So why nobody on our current roster scores that many points, since couple of them is chucking **** at will?
What is it you are trying to say here...I need an exact question to give you an exact answer. Are you asking why no one on our current Rockets team is in the top 11 all time of NBA scoring? No one has managed to shoot the ball 21,000 times in their careers yet. Are you asking why no one on our current Rockets team is averaging around 14 points per game on below league average efficiency? I mean that’s an easy one. We have multiple guys doing that.
He was a prima donna who didn't fit with what the team was doing. The Rockets decided to jettison him and it was the right decision. Glad he revived his career elsewhere.
He hasn't had a positive impact on the basketball floor in 5 years, and yet he still has a ton of supporters.
It starts with ownership, we all know who's fault it is we don't have 11 and 12 top scorers of all time. Would have at least 3 chips by now...
