Shaq and Kobe are one of the best duos of all time. However, the two have scored fewer points than LeBron James in the postseason!

LeBron James is easily among the top five players in NBA history. The 6’9″ small forward has dominated the league for the past two decades.

Drafted by the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2003 with the first overall pick, James was an absolute ‘hub’ from the get-go. So much so that he became the proverbial King of the NBA.

Entering his 20th season in the league, LeBron has four rings to his name, along with four Finals MVPs, four regular season MVPs, 18 NBA All-Star appearances and 18 team selections! All-NBA!

Entering its 20th season, The King has accomplished some incredible feats. Including scoring more points in the postseason than one of the best duos in the NBA.

LeBron James has more playoff points than Shaq and Kobe

There’s no denying that in the 75 years of the NBA’s existence, the league has seen some epic duos. From the likes of Pippen and Jordan to Stockton and Malone.

However, perhaps the most dominant duo in NBA history was none other than Shaquille O’Neal and Kobe Bryant. The two superstars played for the Lakers from 1996 to 2004 and won three championships together.

That said, the duo still trails only a single superstar when it comes to postseason points. Despite making the playoffs eight times as a duo, Kobe and Shaq have scored just a combined 6,542 points compared to LeBron James’ 7,631 points.

It really is fascinating to see how dominant a player LeBron has been throughout his career. Even more dominant than a duo like Shaq and Kobe!
