Second only to Duncan at the PF position in the post-Jordan era.

Say what you will about KG’s antics, the man can play some ball. Those are SERIOUS numbers

I can’t believe R Miller made that list of over 25,000 pts.

There are too many great PF to make such a distinction. Same goes for the GoaT.
There’s a list, and both Garnett and Duncan made quite a while ago already.

Kareem definitely deserves the NBA Iron Man Award.

Nice fun-fact. Coincidently, Jordan averaged exactly 20pts. per game his final final season when he turned 40. In his case, the nearly unblockable shot was the fadeaway where he looked like he was reclining on the sofa in mid-air.

KG is in impressive company (and has been for some time). I remember when I used to check Minnesota’s box just to see his numbers.

Interesting fact: Many know of Oscar Robertson’s triple-double season.

The Big O also averaged the following
over his first five NBA seasons:
30.3 points (.486)
10.4 rebounds
10.7 assists

We’ll never know his steals or blocks because they started measuring them in his final year.

KG is one of the greatest power forwards of all time. If he had the same opportunity as Duncan to play on a great team, people would be saying KG is the best power forward of all time.

Too bad that Kevin’s best years were in Minnesota where not many got to see him play.

38,387 points.

As a 38 year old, Kareem was STILL averaging over 20 points per game in the 1985-86 season.

When it comes to scoring, it really, really helps to have a near-unblockable shot (Sky-hook).
