What's the points?

The Los Angeles Lakers' Kobe Bryant hit the 25,000 career-points mark in the NBA this week.

That's a lot of points! Bryant, arguably the best player ever to hit the hardwood court, along with Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson, has a few years left in the NBA to add more to his point total, but sooner or later he's going to have to settle for second best in that category. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar has the scoring record all to himself. Jabbar, the 7-foot, 2 inch giant who played 20 years in the NBA from 1969-1989 (first with Milwaukee and then with the Lakers) scored an unbelievable 38,387 points in his career. He scored another 5,762 points in playoff games and added another 251 points in all-star appearances.

Wow!
