Imagine Jordan points total if he didn’t go to college (3 years) and take 2 years off.

Wilt is #1 on the list that counts.

Well it helps when you don't go to college.
See Kobe.
Shite, if Kareem hadn't gone to College...he'd be even more untouchable.
He spent 4 years in college (he wasn't allowed to play as a freshman)...and amassed 2,325 points.
He averaged 774 points a year during his career, so Kareem would have had at least 3,096 career college points...making him between #6 on the all-time college scoring list.
Add those years to some varying degree to the NBA and Kareem would be 6,000 points above everyone else.
And LeBron would have to play 8 more years from what he averages per year to surpass Kareem.
Let that sink in.
And if people say, oh we don't know if he'd amassed those points right away in the NBA...
He as Rookie of the Year, All-Star his first year in the NBA.
His freshman year at UCLA, his freshman team defeated the NCAA champion UCLA Varsity team...which won the title again the next year.
He almost never lost a game in college, was POY 3 straight years (would have been 4 if he was allowed to play) and won 3 straight national titles (would have been 4 if he had been allowed to play.)

#1 on flop list

This thread just pisses me off...because Kareem wasn't given or hasn't been given quarter for his scoring title.
But now this is some fricking big deal because LeBron is now Top 5?
What is it? For GOAT? What's the shifting criteria that seems to change every year in LeBron's benefit?
Is it championships? LeBron doesn't have an argument.
Is it dominance? What kind of dominance? What's the criteria?
Scoring plus titles? How does LeBron have an argument over MJ and Kareem?
Or is it just...LeBron is playing now and our memories have a gnat's sized brain?
What category does LeBron win over anyone in the Top 5? What? Moving cities all the time?
Yep, he's GOAT. Apart from he looks awesome...not many great arguments have ever been made on here regarding his measurements to the greats.
If it's titles you have Russell and Magic, if it's scoring you have Kareem, if it's impact on the game you have Jordan, scoring plus titles.
LeBron doesn't fall into any category which places him at the top.
Or is this just the modern...eye test? Never saw the past, but I got the eye now.
To OP's credit, given LeBron's lack of titles compared to the greats...his best argument being so young coming into the league is scoring...not the titles.
So this will be something posterity will hang its hat on for LeBron...so it helps he didn't waste years in college like many of his supremely talented collegues had to. I hope he wears this hat well - if he gets to #3 he can be in the converstation with Karl Malone as Top scorer...and hang his hat.

How many fewer points would LeBitch have if he’d played college ball?
