    Good old American sports.

    The game stops for 10 minutes after LeBron breaks the all time points scoring record.

    Amazing accomplishment - you have to wonder if it's one of the those records that will never be broken although with the 3 point shot so prevalent maybe not.

      pretty sure they said that about Wilt's record

      it's highly improbable though. LBJs career to get to this point in 70 games every year for 20 years averaging over 27 points. That's phenomenal longevity. How many guys his age are still regularly sticking up 30-point games?

        Amazing performance to get 37 in three quarters and break the record.... then lose at home to OKC. Kind of sums up the Lakers. Amazing to think they blew up the winning 2020 roster for nothing.

          @TeWaio i thought it was pretty funny that he had 36 to 3/4 time. got 2 more for the record. and then no more. And his team lost by 3.

          Josh Giddey looked fucking good in the NBL, and it's very cool to see him now look very good in the NBA.

              It gets better.

              Durant traded to the Suns.

              Wow.

                Sean Marks has been busy. The Nets could have been so good.

                  They were building nicely before they bought KD and Kyrie. Fucked their culture now

                      No way in hell he gets traded, you mean when he’s a FA in 26-27???

                      Suns look seriously scary to me. Lakers got better, but damn the Suns man.

                      Would love to see a Boston v Bucks and Suns v Dallas CFs

                        My point is that unless you have three stars, you cant hold your one star. And the Kyrie trade just got blown up as shit. We’re not winning this year.

                          I reckon the Suns will be really good. But you guys have Luka and Kyrie, 2 of the top 5 iso players in the league. Defense won’t be fun, but you should be able to score with anyone

                            I am. I wasn’t that keen on the Kyrie trade anyway, so it’s probably not that surprising that this trade makes me feel less confident.

                            I’d like to add that I really fucking dislike Kevin Durant. He’s an amazing basketball player but he’s a ring-chasing follower. I’m glad it all blew up in Brooklyn. I assume Marks is going to be on his ass soon, unless it was all done by the owners.

                            I do hope that the Suns will be must watch TV for all the wrong reasons.

                              KD such a snake, but if CP3 gets a ring then ehhh its not so bad. Booker seems like a good dude too. Can't see Luka and Kyrie working, both so ball dominant.

                              Lakers got better as they needed shooting, swapping Pat Bev straight up for Bamba is a good trade also. We'll see if the rumored AD LeBron beef comes to anything, dick move petulantly sitting through the scoring record celebrations.

                              Oh yeah @mariner4life Giddey is really good, he'll be an all star eventually I reckon

                                  KD such a snake, but if CP3 gets a ring then ehhh its not so bad. Booker seems like a good dude too. Can't see Luka and Kyrie working, both so ball dominant.

                                  Lakers got better as they needed shooting, swapping Pat Bev straight up for Bamba is a good trade also. We'll see if the rumored AD LeBron beef comes to anything, dick move petulantly sitting through the scoring record celebrations.

                                  Oh yeah @mariner4life Giddey is really good, he'll be an all star eventually I reckon

                                  They should have traded AD. He's got a pea for a heart and he's made of glass

                                    Motherfucker!!!

                                    Goddamn being in the West right now.

                                    I bet we lose Luka.

                                    Lose Luka??? Whaddya mean?

                                    No way in hell he gets traded, you mean when he’s a FA in 26-27???

                                    Suns look seriously scary to me. Lakers got better, but damn the Suns man.

                                    Would love to see a Boston v Bucks and Suns v Dallas CFs

                                    My point is that unless you have three stars, you cant hold your one star. And the Kyrie trade just got blown up as shit. We’re not winning this year.

                                    Jeez you’re so negative!

                                    I reckon the Suns will be really good. But you guys have Luka and Kyrie, 2 of the top 5 iso players in the league. Defense won’t be fun, but you should be able to score with anyone

                                    I am. I wasn’t that keen on the Kyrie trade anyway, so it’s probably not that surprising that this trade makes me feel less confident.

                                    I’d like to add that I really fucking dislike Kevin Durant. He’s an amazing basketball player but he’s a ring-chasing follower. I’m glad it all blew up in Brooklyn. I assume Marks is going to be on his ass soon, unless it was all done by the owners.

                                    I do hope that the Suns will be must watch TV for all the wrong reasons.

                                    Agree with the KD sentiment.

                                    Don't know if Marks is out just yet though, they've got a billion high picks over the next few seasons do they not? And apparently he/his team are pretty good at scouting/development.

                                        AD has always been a dick. His behaviour on the way out of NO was pretty shitty

                                          I am basing my opinion on this footage of AD because this is the only footage I have seen of the incident, but I think people are being too harsh on AD. Is there a set way to celebrate now? Should he have jumped to his feet and bounced around? What if that'd just not in his personality? Like he's an introvert or something? The leg jiggling and knee slapping (I think) looked like a congratulations to me. And the video stopped just as he looked like he was getting to his feet. What happened after that?
