In the NBA, scoring is more important than defending. Those players who score top-notch points and have mediocre defenses can easily get a high salary. But players who defend top scoring mediocre will have a hard time getting a top salary.
Players with strong offensive ability are also more able to attract the attention of fans, and their popularity and ability to attract money are undoubtedly higher. The players who can stand out as the scoring champion are all recognized superstars, such as the current Harden, Westbrook, Durant, Curry, James and others.
These scoring champions are all well-known figures, but it is difficult for a single season scoring champion to lead a team to win a championship, and only four superstars have done it in the entire history of the NBA. Superstars like James, Kobe Bryant, and Durant have failed to do that.
The closest we came back was 19 years ago, in the 99-00 season, O'Neal reached the peak of his career, averaging 3 rebounds and assists per game, not only being elected the scoring champion, but also leading the Lakers to a 67-15 record. In the playoffs, O'Neal was also unstoppable, he successfully led the team to win the championship, and he even won the Grand Slam honor of regular season MVP + scoring champion + finals MVP, which is enough to go down in history.
Further back is the basketball god Jordan, who completely dominated the NBA in the 90s, especially in terms of championships and scoring titles. The 90s Gang Leader only played six full seasons, and in those six seasons he completed two triple-winning titles. Not only that, but he also monopolized these 6 seasons and scoring champions and FMVPs, of which in 91, 92, 96 and 98, Jordan was still the MVP of the league, so the single-season scoring champion + MVP + FMVP can only be regarded as a regular operation for Jordan.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar also achieved this achievement, and in the '70-71 season, the sophomore Abdul-Jabbar averaged 16 rebounds and assists per game, and he played a dominant performance with Big O, successfully winning the scoring title and regular season MVP. After entering the playoffs, Abdul-Jabbar continued his outstanding performance, averaging 17 rebounds per game, leading the Bucks to win the championship, and Abdul-Jabbar also completed the Grand Slam honor this year.
There is also a legend of the Lakers, McCann, who was the first dominant center, and in the 48-49 season, George McCann averaged gorgeous statistics of points and assists per game, and was elected the scoring champion while leading the Lakers to win the championship. In the 49-50 season, McCann had another point and assist statistic, and he defended his scoring title and championship. However, there were no regular season MVP and FMVP awards at the time, so McCann didn't make it to the Grand Slam.
It can be seen that it is very difficult to lead the team to win the championship while winning the scoring title, Jordan, Abdul-Jabbar and O'Neal, while completing this achievement, also won the regular season MVP and the finals MVP, who do you think will be the next to do it?

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was the regular season scoring champion in 1969 and led the team to a championship, while Jordan had no 10 scoring titles and six championships. At the same time, the current player Curry won the scoring title and led the team to win the championship.

In the history of the NBA, some superstars have been able to win the scoring championship while leading the team to win the championship, such as O'Neal, Jordan, Abdul-Jabbar, George McCann, these people are all scoring masters and have made great contributions to the basketball industry.
-
Jordan won 10 NBA scoring titles in his career, and Jordan also won 6 NBA championships. Therefore, Jordan is also an NBA player who has won the championship and scoring title in the same season many times.

1. Chamberlain won the MVP championship in 1960 and 1966 and won the championship twice, and the final result was: the division final!
Of course, there were only eight or nine teams in the league at the time, for example, in the 1960 Celtics playoffs had two rounds, and they beat the national team 4-1 in the first round and then won the second round. Round 4: 1.
The Eagles won the championship outright, so the Chamberlain Division Final at that time was actually no different from the first round of the playoffs!
2. Kareem Abdul Jabbar, 1971 scoring champion + MVP, final result: champion!
In 1971, there were already 17 teams in the league, and the top eight teams advanced to the playoffs, but in four pairs.
Three rounds were played in the format of eight, two-on-four and two-on-one. points and 16 rebounds led the team to a 66-16 record. They lost and won the title of Sniper and MVP, and also won the playoffs with a score of 4-1 three times in a row!
3. Michael Jordan is an MVP who has won five championships in his career, including four championships!
Jordan's five high-scoring and MVP seasons were 1988, 1991, 1992, 1996 and 1998. In Jordan's first three consecutive championship games, a total of 27 teams entered the league, and like today, the playoffs were divided into four. In the first round; In the time since Jordan's Treble, there were 29 teams in the league, but the game system was the same as before, with 5 wins and 3 losses in the first round.
If you think the number of gold medals in the Jordan Championship is low, then change it to seven wins and four losses, and the Lakers will also win three in a row!
4. O'Neal, MVP 2000+ scoring champion, final result: champion!
In the 99-00 season, O'Neal beat Iverson by points to become the top scorer of the season. In addition, O'Neill also received 99% of the votes in this season's MVP selection. time, a reporter from Philadelphia put the only one.
Voted for Iverson, otherwise O'Neal would have become the first player in NBA history to unanimously win the MVP!

Abdul-Jabbar, Chamberlain, won the MVP and scoring titles twice in '60 and '66, and in 1960, the Celtics played a total of two series in the playoffs, beating the Democrats 4-1 in the first round, and then winning the Hawks 4-1 in the second round to win the championship directly.

There's a curse in NBA history that if you have a player who is the leading scorer, you're never going to get a championship ring this season. But there is a curse, then there are players who can break the curse, in the history of the NBA, there have been four players who have broken the title of both the scoring champion and the championship ring, now let's take stock.
O'Neal was once the top interior player in the league, and he has great physicality and strength. He made his debut in the NBA and showed great performance. The KO duo of O'Neal and Kobe Bryant has helped the Lakers win three consecutive championships, and he has won the MVP of the Finals three times.
O'Neal at his peak had no one on the inside to stop him from scoring, and his dominance on the inside was suffocating. In the '99-00 season, O'Neal was elected the regular season scoring champion by points per game in the regular season, and later won the championship in the Finals.
Abdul-Jabbar entered the Bucks in 1969 as the top pick, and in the new season, Abdul-Jabbar averaged points per game, and many fans believed that he had the potential to become a superstar in the league. Sure enough, the following year, Abdul-Jabbar continued to rise, and he scored a terrifying average of points per game, which was enough for him to win the scoring title that season, and in the championship game, Abdul-Jabbar led the team to a 4-0 sweep of opponents, and this season Abdul-Jabbar led the team to 88 wins.
The Lakers have always been the top team in the league, and the Lakers' first superstar was McCann. McCann's NBA era was still white, and as a center on the court, he led the team to five Finals championships. McCann won the scoring title three times in a row from 1949 to 1951, including the first and second years McCann successfully won the NBA championship.
George McCann is also the first player in league history to score 10,000 points.
Jordan is the league's No. 1 scoring guard, and he qualified as an All-Star starter on his first league entry. Jordan has won many scoring titles throughout his career, but the period when he won both the scoring title and the championship was during Jordan's two triple championships, when Jordan won the scoring title and the Finals championship 6 times. Jordan is worthy of being the god of basketball, and the only player who has broken the curse many times in the history of the league is Jordan!
It's been years since the NBA league has seen a player who has won both a scoring title and a championship ring, and I wonder when the next such player will appear?
-
NBA championship team winner for the past 10 years.
-
6-time Jordan, McCann was the scoring champion three years in a row from 1949 to 1951

<> Kobe Bryant is a very successful player, he is known as the king of the Western Conference finals, because he has never been soft in key battles, he has led the team to the Western Conference Finals 8 times in his career, won 7 times, and finally won the cup on the Finals stage 5 times, which is a very good winning rate. The only two defeats were the immature Kobe Bryant in 04, who lost to the Pinnacle Pistons Five Tigers. and the Koga combination in '08, losing to the Big Three of the Green Army, 2 runners-up and 5 championships, great enough.
James is the face of the active league, and he is also the star with the most active championship rings. The 35-year-old Lao Zhan has won the championship 4 times, but the process behind this is not easy, because Lao Zhan has led the team to the finals 10 times, and 6 of them have returned with regrets. Even if he is as strong as James, he can't dominate the finals stage, and the six runners-up can also rank third in history.
The runner-up is more than Lao Zhan, the ancient Laker god West + Baylor, they are the saddest combination, with a historic cutting ability, and ruled the West during the team, but were dominated by the Celtic dynasty. West and Baylor have both experienced 8 finals losses, many of which hit the tie-break, and finally missed the championship.
There is also a pair that has more than 3 runners-up, they are the 80s Magic + Abdul-Jabbar, both of whom are in the top 10 in history, and they jointly led the Lakers to achieve a dynasty in the 80s and won 5 NBA championships. However, they have each lost 4 finals, and they are a combination with many champions and runners-up, and their strength is very strong.
Among the historical supergiants, there are basically runners in the process of winning the championship, Duncan has 1 runner-up, Wade has 2 runners-up, Curry has 2 runners-up, O'Neal has 2 runners-up, and even Russell, the 11-crown Lord of the Rings, has 1 runner-up. The only exception is Jordan, the god of basketball, who led the team to the Finals 6 times in the 90s, and eventually dominated the league, and any opponent fell at the feet of the gang leader, won the championship 6 times, did not have a single runner-up, and did not even give the opponent a chance to tie seven. On this topic, Jordan may only be able to say:
Excuse me.
-
Kobe Bryant is a 2-time runner-up, James is a 6-time runner-up, O'Neal is 2 runner-ups, Russell is 1 runner-up, Curry is 2 runners-up, and Wade is 2 runners-up.
-
Elgin Baylor was runner-up eight times, James was runner-up six, Jerry West was runner-up eight times, and Magic was runner-up four times.
-
The NBA superstars have won five runners-up, and the others are championships, so they are very powerful, and his strength is very strong, very powerful.
-
Elgin Baylor played 8 Finals and was runner-up 8 times, and LeBron James played 10 Finals and was runner-up 6 times.

On the list of NBA scoring champions posted by the American media, the top five NBA players who finally ranked were Jordan (10 times), Chamberlain (7 times), Durant (4 times), George Gervin (4 times), and Iverson (4 times). Because they have dominated the NBA season scoring list many times in their careers, they are also the first in history to become the scoring champion in the league, and they are also at the top of the list of scoring champions.
Among them, the "God of Basketball" Jordan and the "Basketball Emperor" Chamberlain, the number of scoring champions of the two of them is already speechless, and their NBA scoring champions are basically impossible to be surpassed by latecomers at present. Especially Jordan, who is firmly at the top of the list, his 10-time regular season scoring title is simply a miracle, in the NBA league after Jordan, although there are many top scorers, but no one can reach Jordan's level in the honor of scoring champion.
As for Durant, Iverson and George Gervin, who also hold four career scoring titles, they are undoubtedly superstars of all eras of the NBA. As the only active NBA player on the list, although Durant theoretically still has the possibility of winning the scoring title, but considering Durant's age and physical condition, it should be impossible for Durant to compete for the scoring title in the next Nets career, so Durant's scoring title will most likely stay at 4 times.
Although Durant will basically not hit the fifth scoring title of his career, Harden is very likely to continue his regular season scoring championship honor. With winning the NBA league scoring title again this season, Harden has unknowingly won 3 scoring titles, and now he is only 1 scoring champion away from Durant, Iverson and others.
Moreover, considering that Harden's team has repeatedly failed in the NBA playoffs, it is entirely possible for Harden to improve his NBA historical status through the accumulation of honors in the regular season if he cannot win a championship. And if Harden has maintained his ambition for the regular season scoring title, I believe that there is no problem at all in the end to tie Durant's scoring title!
Yes, James is great enough, but he can't be counted because he doesn't have an accurate team brand, he has been on many teams such as the Cavaliers, Lakers, and Heat.
What is the basis for winning a championship in the NBA? That's defense, although now the league's style of play has become a small-ball era, but the defense has not declined, but from the interior defense as the focus, to the outside defense as the focus, now if you are a very good outside defensive player, and a good three-point shot, and even can hold the ball, then your annual salary in the NBA must be 15 million. The United States ** also lists the NBA's historical defensive pyramid, let's take a look. >>>More

What is a substitute player, for people who don't know much about the NBA, a substitute player is equivalent to a stand-in, which is fundamentally different from the player in the last game. But for a team, it's the bench players who represent the depth of the team, and they are an integral part of the team. Many good stars are born as bench players, so who are the players in the NBA who have gone from bench to superstar? >>>More
