if the Bulls team hadn’t fallen apart and MJ didn’t retire the second time, he would have passed Kareem
2 Lebron still would eventually be the scoring champion because he is not human.
Not only physically, which that in its own is truly mindboggling, but also dealing with the mental and emotional stressors of being a low key god among men. In this decade fame is even more intense. MJ bounced twice in primarily because of the mental and external stressors. This is why sustained greatness for THAT long is so absurd and difficult. Lebron is gunna scoot past and build on that lead for at least 2 more full seasons plus the remainder of this year, and he’s still averaging 30 points a game while also never being someone unwilling to share the ball. It’s just insane.
