“LeBron James Has a Fine Incoming!”: NBA Twitter Reacts to Lakers’ Star’s F-Bomb After Breaking Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s Scoring Record

The NBA witnessed one of its greatest moments tonight. A kid from Akron Ohio, at 38 years of age, took down the most unattainable NBA record imaginable. With a fadeaway shot, LeBron James crossed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for the most points in NBA History.

38,388 POINTS

It was a huge moment in NBA History as Kareem has stood as the NBA’s leading scorer for the last 38 years and ten months.

Not only was it big for LeBron, but also for the entire NBA fraternity. We’re watching greatness in person, and we need to appreciate it as it happens. After breaking the record, Adam Silver congratulated the King.

NBA Twitter saw the same, and couldn’t help but react to the same.

Great acceptance speech by LeBron … but could’ve done without the concluding f-bomb, even though it summed up his overwhelmed emotion.

His first goal right now would be to win the game tonight. After that, it would be to take the Lakers to the playoffs. In the longer run though, the all-time assists record might be something the ‘pass-first’ King might set his sights on.
