    “Bag” talk is genuinely the most annoying discussion in the NBA, no offense

    The player with most points in NBA history apparently has no bag, guys who spam tween hesi pull up have a bag even if they didn’t achieve anything in their career

      Disagree, “Who is the most overrated” is the most annoying discussion in the NBA. To be honest, probably the most annoying for any topic on the internet.

      Total points is a longvity stat, so you dont actually need to be the top tier at that aspect.

      A 15 PPG role player who plays 40 seasns would beat LeBron’s point total, does that mean he’s a good player?

      Thats why points PER GAME is used for awards, scoring titles etc. And MJ definitely has a bag.

        Lebron isn’t just 1st in total points, he’s 7th ALL TIME in PPG.

        I’m actually so sick of the ‘that’s just a longevity stat’ so I’m just going to reply with this comment from now on:

        ‘You’re a fucking idiot and have absolutely no idea what the fuck you’re talking about.’

        What a load of bs?

        First of all how many 15 ppg role players you know that have 30k+ points? or how many players you know that played 40 seasons? What a weird imaginary argument

        And if you think longevity doesn’t contribute anything to your “bag”, then are you going to be dumb enough to say that players like Kobe, Dirk, Malone and Kareem had no bag? They had nothing special in them which helped them get to those points? And if it’s really that easy then why we only have 7 players who reached 30k points?

        Secondly, I don’t care what you think about MJ’s bag. The fact that you think Lebron has no bag while he does pretty great on efficiency metrics, literally has as better TS% than a lot of players who have a “bag” while drawing the best defenders for about 22 years is hilarious

        Opinions like this should get you laughed out of every basketball conversation

        KD on the perimeter is aging so gracefully because he can get to his spots and rise up. Unblockable.
