Because James is the player who has dominated an era for the longest time in NBA history, he was the first person in the league from 2009 to 2021, and he has been the face of the NBA since 2010 or earlier, and he is also the strongest veteran in NBA history, the player with the longest peak, even if he is in the 21st season and is almost 39 years old, he can still play the strength of the first gear in the league, so James has a lot of records, whether it is the regular season, the playoffs and the Finals, or the All-Star, Special game days like the Christmas Game and the opener, including the new mid-season tournament and play-offs, James has a lot on record. So once any player activates a milestone, James is likely to be celebrated, as James is usually the top of those records.
Like some of the Bucks' games in December, their boss Antetokounmpo and the new second leader Lillard have both activated milestones, Antetokounmpo surpassed Abdul-Jabbar in rebounding and became the first person in team history in this regard, in addition to being the Bucks' all-time leading scorer and assist leader. Only James in history, Jordan in the Bulls, and Garnett in the Timberwolves have been able to accomplish such feats. Among them, James is the most fierce, with almost all the records of the Cavaliers in the regular season and playoffs.
On December 20, the Bucks defeated the Spurs, and it was Lillard's turn to activate the milestone. Lillard had 40 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists in this game, and his career regular season total points exceeded 20,000 points, which is the fourth player in history to have at least 20,000 points, 5,000 assists and 2,000 three-pointers in the regular season in his career, second only to James, Harden and Curry. Among them, James is the best, he is the only player in history with 39,000 points, 10,000 assists, and 2,000 three-pointers. Even if he concedes 9,000 points and 5,000 rebounds, he is the only player in history with 30,000 points, 5,000 assists and 2,000 three-pointers.
