Translation of the article content into English: The significance of records is to be broken, and this applies equally in the NBA. When Kareem Abdul-Jabbar retired in 1989, his career total score was set at 38,387 points, and for the next few decades, the media and fans were unanimous in believing that this record would be permanently sealed. However, two years ago, LeBron James surpassed it, and now he has even refreshed the historical total scoring record to 41,000 points. However, there are some records in the long history of the NBA that are almost impossible to break due to factors such as the era and rules, like towering mountains that cannot be surpassed. So let's take a look at them together. LeBron James' "411" With the development of modern basketball, future players' statistics will inevitably become more explosive, so James' 40,000-point record is not impossible to break. However, James' "411" record will undoubtedly be recorded in history and become one of the hardest records to break in the NBA. It should be noted that even if the difficulty is reduced to 30,000 points + 10,000 rebounds + 10,000 assists, no one has been able to achieve this in history, which requires extremely high personal ability, career length, and state stability. Michael Jordan's Ten Scoring Titles As the universally recognized greatest player in history, Jordan created countless records that later generations found difficult to match, but the hardest to break is undoubtedly 10 scoring titles. Even top scorers in history like Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant, James Harden, and Allen Iverson…

Harden: Only four people in the NBA have truly influenced the world, and I am not qualified yet Throughout NBA history, many epoch-making superstars have emerged, from Russell to Dr. J, from Jordan to Kobe, from James to Curry. The existence of these players has not only made basketball one of the most popular sports but also made the NBA one of the most influential sporting events. However, when it comes to the true global influence of the NBA, there are very few who can reach that level, and they must possess a combination of skills, popularity, quality, and image. Recently, James Harden, a star player for the Clippers, was interviewed, during which he discussed the four players he considers to be the most influential. Harden also stated that only their influence could reach a worldwide scale. Let's take a look at who is on Harden's list. Jordan As we all know, Jordan is hailed as the "God of Basketball." His career is filled with legendary achievements, including six championships with the Chicago Bulls, six Finals MVPs, five regular-season MVPs, ten scoring titles, and more. It's worth noting that these accomplishments were achieved despite Jordan retiring twice. Jordan not only left a deep mark on the court but also extended his influence beyond basketball. His "Air" image has become part of global culture, and his shoe series, "Air Jordan," remains a benchmark for fashion and basketball culture to this day. Kobe As one of the greatest players of this era, Kobe's career was equally brilliant, with five NBA championships, two…

Can they still maintain their peak performance? James is in his 22nd season, Durant in his 18th, and Curry in his 16th. Age and injuries are the biggest enemies of NBA players. Durant has overcome a major Achilles tendon rupture and returned to his peak. James, Durant, and Curry are overcoming the effects of age and striving to create new peaks. 39 points + 37 points!

On December 26th, Beijing time, there was a highly anticipated matchup during the NBA regular season's Christmas Day games. The Golden State Warriors awaited the arrival of the Los Angeles Lakers at their home court for an intense battle. Schröder, facing his former team, had an excellent three-point shooting performance, hitting multiple shots. The Warriors started strong, taking control early on, with Wiggins particularly impressive, scoring 10 points through a combination of drives and outside shots. The starters played well overall, but the bench seemed slow to heat up, struggling to keep pace on both ends of the court. The Lakers responded quickly, stabilizing the situation with consecutive successful defenses. However, unfortunately, Davis suffered an ankle sprain and returned to the locker room, leaving a potential problem. With a three-pointer from Knecht, the first quarter ended in a 23-all tie. In the second quarter, James launched a sudden three-pointer from the outside, while Knecht became a substitute powerhouse, making strong finishes under the basket. The Lakers then went on a 9-0 run to take the lead. However, quickly widening the gap was not easy, as the game remained tightly contested. Coach Kerr made several substitutions, but they were not particularly effective, ultimately relying on the starters to resolve the issues. Tres scored efficiently inside, while Curry responded with consecutive three-pointers. The half ended with the score at 52-55, with the Warriors trailing by three points. The third quarter began with a three-point shootout between both teams, neither willing to give ground, resulting in intense competition. Curry and Wiggins took on…

I originally intended to stop writing, but I have a habit of browsing other people's articles every time. Today, I came across an article with pictures in which Kyrie Irving mentioned that there are only six players in NBA history who excel at one-on-one play: Jordan, Kobe, James, Durant, McGrady, and Harden. Seeing this list, I would like to share my thoughts. Honestly, when it comes to one-on-one play, LeBron James does have a gap compared to these players. James relies heavily on pick-and-roll or post-up plays in his later years, while the others are known for their tough individual skills that make defenders tremble in one-on-one situations. Durant's biggest enemy in one-on-one play is his own stamina and shooting touch. James doesn't really belong on this list, although it's not to say that his one-on-one ability is bad. In my personal opinion, the strongest one-on-one players are Jordan, Kobe, Durant, McGrady, Iverson, and Kyrie. Harden's one-on-one ability is actually not great; he is more of a player with high basketball IQ who knows how to take advantage of the rules. Jordan was able to win two three-peats in his era, which was largely due to his personal one-on-one ability. Do you remember the Detroit Pistons' Bad Boys, known for their rough defense? Jordan faced them with great difficulty, and it was through such challenges that he honed his one-on-one skills, so there's no objection to ranking him first. Kobe, similarly, progressed from a role player to the core of the Lakers. He has mentioned in his memoirs that he…

In the final 28 seconds, it seemed as though the Lakers were on the verge of a great comeback, with fans' hearts pounding faster than the game itself. LeBron reached out to pass the ball to Davis, who soared for a layup—almost there! But then what happened? The referee blew the whistle, calling a foul on the Pistons. However, good fortune is fleeting, and the Pistons successfully challenged the call, having the foul overturned! Instantly, possession shifted to the Pistons, and the Lakers' counterattack fizzled out. Following this, Cunningham took his time with a three-pointer, watched the ball fly... but it didn't go in, causing Lakers fans' hearts to leap once more. In the dying moments, the Lakers reclaimed their last chance—a sideline inbound pass by Rivers, with Davis setting a screen for LeBron. But LeBron received the ball and shot a three-pointer, which was another airball. Alas, they couldn't even hold on to a draw. The Lakers fell just short, with the final score locked at 114 to 117, as the Pistons narrowly triumphed, turning defeat into victory. The game was like a rollercoaster, with its ups and downs leaving spectators breathless. Initially, the Lakers started strong, leading by 10 points, but this lead was quickly torn apart by the Pistons, much like paper. On the Pistons' side, Beasley was on fire, his three-pointers acting like timed bombs, repeatedly finding their mark and catching the Lakers off guard. Everyone knows that Beasley once played for the Lakers, and in this game, he seemed to be driven by a vendetta,…

As an annual highlight in the NBA, the Christmas Day games feature either championship contenders or teams with high fan appeal, ensuring that participating teams receive significant exposure. Players strive to perform at their best in these globally televised events, as such opportunities are rare, with many never experiencing it throughout their careers. Given the intense focus on both ends of the court during Christmas Day games, achieving impressive statistics becomes more challenging. Throughout history, only ten players have managed to record a triple-double in a single Christmas Day game, with six of them currently active in the league. Let's take a look at these six active players who have accomplished this feat. Austin Reaves (2024) In a game against the Warriors, Reaves scored 26 points, grabbed 10 rebounds, and dished out 10 assists. Since being given a chance by the Lakers as an undrafted player, Reaves has consistently improved, exceeding expectations. In the 2023 playoffs, he averaged 16+4+4 and even 20+ in the Western Conference Finals, solidifying his trust within the team. Despite occasional fluctuations in form over the past two seasons, the Lakers have remained committed to his development, even considering him untouchable at times. This season, Reaves is averaging 17.4 points, 4.1 rebounds, 5.1 assists, and 1.1 steals, demonstrating his progress while handling a significant workload.

With the deepening of the CBA league, teams are striving for playoff spots. Beijing Shougang, a traditional powerhouse in the league, has had an inconsistent performance this season, especially in the selection and use of foreign players, which has been a focus of external attention. Recently, the fourth foreign aid of Beijing Shougang has emerged - James Nunnally, the former small forward of the NBA New Orleans Pelicans. The arrival of this 34-year-old veteran has become a hot topic among fans and media, as to whether he can be the "timely rain" to help the team out of its difficulties. James Nunnally is a small forward who has also shone on the NBA court. Although his career has not reached the top level in the NBA, his rich game experience and versatile technical characteristics have made him a sought-after player by many teams. Especially on the offensive end, Nunnally not only possesses excellent outside shooting ability but can also create threats under the basket. His arrival will undoubtedly provide more offensive options for Beijing Shougang. However, age is an issue that Nunnally cannot avoid. At 34, whether his physical condition and endurance can adapt to the high-intensity games of the CBA is the biggest variable. Moreover, the transition from European and American leagues to the CBA involves not only differences in game rhythm and rules but also requires adapting to new teammates and game environments. Whether Nunnally can quickly integrate into the team and perform at the expected level remains to be seen. Beijing Shougang has been controversial in its…

The focus of the NBA Christmas Day game was undoubtedly the matchup between the Lakers and the Warriors, with top-tier stars LeBron James and Stephen Curry both scoring over 30 points, delivering an exciting game for the audience. Ultimately, the Lakers emerged as the winners and took the opportunity to improve their ranking to sixth in the Western Conference, while the Warriors' ranking dropped to tenth. Due to a significant gap in performance from the top of the Western Conference, the Thunder, both teams hope to optimize their rosters. The Warriors' general manager, Bob Myers, hopes to maximize their advantage of strong shooting ability by focusing on adding shooters. The Lakers hope to add a quality frontcourt player to alleviate pressure on Anthony Davis in the paint. In comparison, the Rockets, ranked second in the West, have a better competitive situation, but general manager Rafael Stone stated in an interview with Jonathan Feigen of the American media "Houston Chronicle" that he will not miss any opportunity to strengthen the team's lineup. Recently, American media "BR" suggested that the Warriors, Lakers, Rockets, and Nets should discuss a four-team trade proposal. If negotiations progress smoothly, Kuminga is expected to join James in Los Angeles, while C-Johnson will go to Golden State to assist Curry. The specific trade plan is as follows: The Warriors send Jonathan Kuminga + Li Kair + Kevin Looney to receive Cameron Johnson. The Lakers send Hood-Sefcik + Christian Wood + the Lakers' 2029 first-round pick + the right to swap first-round picks in 2030 to receive Jonathan Kuminga.…

In the second quarter, James switched to an organizing mode, dishing out three consecutive assists, revitalizing the team's offense.
