PHILADELPHIA -- A third championship in June cemented?LeBron James place as a top-10 player in NBA history in many peoples subjective rankings. There is no disputing his place as a top-10 scorer, at the very least, after Saturday.James passed Hall of Famer Hakeem Olajuwon for 10th on the all-time scoring list in the first quarter of the Cavaliers 102-101 win over the 76ers on Saturday night.He scored on a fast-break layup with 6:02 remaining in the first quarter against Philadelphia, putting the Cavs up 14-7 and overtaking by one point Olajuwons career total of 26,946 points in the process. James finished with 25 points on the night.?For me, scoring has never been on my list of goals, James said after the game. Facilitating, getting my guys involved, and rebounding, defending, getting blocked shots and things of that nature always ranked above that, and for me to be in the top 10 with so many great players thats played this game -- I dont know how many, I dont even know the list of how many guys have played in this league since the inaugural year -- but ... its just a blessing. Its an honor.James is one of only three players in the top 10, along with Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan, whose primary position was a wing player throughout his career. The rest, like Olajuwon, are centers or power forwards.Cavs coach Tyronn Lue played alongside two of the top 10 while with the?Lakers?-- Bryant (third on the all-time list with 33,643 points) and Shaquille ONeal (seventh with 28,596) -- and was asked to compare James to the pair.I dont think he gets the credit for scoring the basketball, Lue said before Saturdays game. I think just because he has a great all-around game as far as rebounding, passing the basketball, defensively [and] blocking shots. Hes a great all-around player, so we sometimes forget how great of a scorer he is. And hes right up there with those guys. They had a different mentality as far as Kobe wants to score, kill you every single night. But LeBron will beat you in every facet of the game.James worked out with Olajuwon -- the Dream Shake creator -- back in 2011.Well, I knew he worked guys out that wanted to get better and I wanted to expand my game, James recalled Saturday morning before shootaround. So, its not hard for me to reach somebody, and I wanted to expand my game in the low post. I felt like if I could do that then I could be more dynamic and make our team better, so, couple phone calls here and I was able to make it happen.Philadelphia also happened to be the place where James scored his 25,000th point toward the beginning of the 2015-16 season.They talk about his passing ability, his unselfishness, the way he rebounds the basketball and pushes the basketball, but hes a scorer also and people leave that out, Lue said. Hes averaging 25 points a game the last, what, 12 years? Cmon. Thats a scorer to me. But because his all-around game is so great, you kind of miss out on his scoring. To pass Hakeem Olajuwon, as a kid growing up watching Hakeem and to say that I can pass him on a top-10 scoring list, he deserves it because hes putting the work in.Elvin Hayes is next on the all-time list with 27,313 points.
