Five records that the NBA cannot break: James is at the bottom of the "411" and will always be sealed

In the long history of the NBA, countless amazing records have been born. As time goes by, some records have gradually become a peak that future generations cannot reach due to their unique historical background and extreme difficulty coefficients. They are even considered to be unbreakable. So, let’s take a look at the five major records that the NBA cannot be broken. The "411" project, which is as strong as James, can only be at the bottom.

James' "411" project

Reviewing James' brilliant career, he set many honor records that his juniors could not reach, including 4 championships, 4 finals MVPs, 4 regular season MVPs, 13 best teams, historical scoring champion, average triple-double in the finals, etc. Among these achievements, the "411" project is the most difficult to surpass. To this day, James has scored 42,184 points, 11,731 rebounds, 11,584 assists, and this is the only one in history. Even if the threshold is lowered to 3+1+1 or even 2+1+1, there is only James.

Chamberlain scored 100 points in a single game

On March 2, 1962, "Basketball Emperor" Chamberlain played the most explosive solo performance in NBA history in the game against the Knicks. In that game, Chamberlain made 36 of 63 shots, 28 of 32 free throws, and scored 100 points and 25 rebounds, setting an NBA history record for individual single-game scoring. More than 60 years have passed, and no one has surpassed Chamberlain's record so far, and there is not even a close connection.

Duncan has 1,000 wins in a single team

As we all know, Duncan is the No. 1 power forward in NBA history and the greatest player in the Spurs' history. Duncan has won 1,001 games in his entire career, although this number ranks fourth in history, but he is the only player to win 1,000 on the same team, with a winning rate of 71.9%. The horror of this record is that during the 19 years of playing for Duncan, the Spurs have won more than 60% each year (except for the shrinking season), and have won more than 50 games in the regular season for 17 consecutive years.

Celtics won eight consecutive championships

Bill Russell and "Redded Leader" Auerbach led the Boston Celtics to create eight consecutive championships from 1959 to 1966, which is the longest consecutive championship record in NBA history. In that era, the Celtics had many talented players, and their tacit cooperation and teamwork reached the extreme. Of course, this achievement is also due to the relatively small size of the alliance at that time and the competitive environment is different from that now.

Jordan's ten-time scoring king

The greatness of Jordan "God of Basketball" does not need to be described too much. Whether it is dominance, influence or commercial value on the court, it exists on the ceiling. Among Jordan's many achievements, the most difficult thing to break is undoubtedly the ten-time scoring champion, including the seven-match bank from 1987 to 1993 and the three-match bank from 1996 to 1998. The ten-time scoring champion is not only a demonstration of Jordan's super offensive ability, but also a record of the number of times he won the scoring champion in history. Even the sum of the scoring champions of superstars such as Kobe, Durant, James, and Curry is not the same as Jordan.
