Whether you think he’s the greatest of all time or not, the facts are that LeBron James is breaking records and will go down in the history books. Last night, he achieved something amazing. With only 18 points until the feat, the king passed Kobe Bryant on the NBA all-time scoring list against the Philadelphia 76ers.
Sitting at third, James now only had Karl Malone and Kareem Abdul Jabar to pass up on the list, though he has a ways to go to do that. Last night puts Kobe at fourth on the list, with Michael Jordan sitting at fifth.

Unfortunately, the Los Angeles Lakers lost to the Sixers on the road, but the Philly crowd still cheered for ‘Bron when it happened.
