Outstanding post, <!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>alamo50</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END-->!!<br>
<br>
And remember that David has done this in only 14 years (actually 13 when you consider that he played only six games one year.)<br>
<br>
I compared your stats to the all-time leaders in each category:<br>
<br>
<!--EZCODE UNDERLINE START--><span style="text-decoration:underline">1,000 games</span><!--EZCODE UNDERLINE END--> - Robert Parish leads with 1611 games but it took him 21 years.<br>
<br>
<!--EZCODE UNDERLINE START--><span style="text-decoration:underline">34,000 minutes</span><!--EZCODE UNDERLINE END--> - Kareem Abdul-Jabbar played 57,446 minutes but it took him 20 years.<br>
<br>
<!--EZCODE UNDERLINE START--><span style="text-decoration:underline">21,000 points</span><!--EZCODE UNDERLINE END--> - There are only 20 people in the history of the league that have scored more than 21,000 points no matter how many years they've played.<br>
<br>
<!--EZCODE UNDERLINE START--><span style="text-decoration:underline">10,500 rebounds</span><!--EZCODE UNDERLINE END--> -Wilt Chamberlain leads the rebounders with 23,924 and 10th place is held by Buck Williams with 13,017. So you know David has got to be in the top 15.<br>
<br>
<!--EZCODE UNDERLINE START--><span style="text-decoration:underline">3,000 blocks</span><!--EZCODE UNDERLINE END--> - David is now in 6th place. If he gets the 3,000 there will be only three who have out-blocked him: Hakeem Olajuwan - 3652; Kareem Abdul-Jabbar - 3189; and Mark Eaton - 3064.<br>
<br>
<!--EZCODE UNDERLINE START--><span style="text-decoration:underline">2450 assists</span><!--EZCODE UNDERLINE END--> - John Stockton is 1st (and adding to his total nightly) with over 14,000. 11th place is Kevin Johnson with 6711. I think all thise guys are guards. I bet David is the leader in assists for centers and forwards!<br>
<br>
<!--EZCODE UNDERLINE START--><span style="text-decoration:underline">1400 steals</span><!--EZCODE UNDERLINE END--> - John Stockton leads here, too, with 2844 and counting. 10th place is Isiah Thomas with 1861. <br>
<br>

<br>
Anyway you look at it, <!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>David has had a stellar career!!!</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END-->
