Highest ppg teammates that consensus top 10ers had when they entered the league

[TheGoatest]

1. 1979-80 Kareem Abdul-Jabbar: 24.8 ppg
2. 1984-85 Orlando Woolridge: 22.9 ppg
3. 1959-60 Paul Arizin: 22.3 ppg
4. 1969-70 Flynn Robinson: 21.8 ppg
5. 1997-98 David Robinson: 21.6 ppg
6. 1956-57 Bill Sharman: 21.1 ppg
7. 1984-85 Ralph Sampson: 21.0 ppg
8. 1992-93 Nick Anderson: 19.9 ppg
9. 1979-80 Cedric Maxwell: 16.9 ppg
10. 2003-04 Carlos Boozer: 15.5 ppg

Only Magic had a higher scoring teammate than Foolish jordon when he entered the league. And he won the championship as the Finals MVP that very same season.

PPG is hands down the favorite stat of Foolish jordon extremist alts, so I wonder how many alts they will need to log in and out of to spin Foolish jordon not being able to accomplish jack shit with second highest scoring teammate of all the consensus top 10 players. :confusedshrug:

Woolridge wasn't a top 3 player at his position in the conference (all-star), whereas Lebron was lottery with all-star Zydrunas in 05'

Bird was right because Woolridge was clearly worse without MJ:

84' Woolridge.... 19.3 on 52% (no mj)
85' Woolridge.... 22.9 on 55% (mj rookie yr)
86' Woolridge.... 20.3 on 49% (no mj)


MJ and Lebron both inherited lottery teams as rookies, but Jordan was forced into the playoffs with his lottery squad in Year 1, while Lebron got 3 years to develop his team into a veteran high seed before entering the 06' Playoffs - the all-star duo of Lebron/Zydrunas added a 22/5/5 all-defender to make the 06' Playoffs the favorite.. So Jordan's losses with low seeds in his rookie and sophomore year can't be compared to Lebron in Year 3 with favored, high seeds.. Btw, Lebron actually begged (https://i.makeagif.com/media/10-15-2021/LIlDOj.gif) Hughes to join him during the 2005 season, so Lebron stole Arenas' sidekick - he was consolidating power in the conference all the way back then.

Mj failed with Woolridge despite him being better than Pippen
