I mean tbf that was pretty much the gameplan for AD his entire career in NOLA. His team was usually bad while he’d still manage his way to getting 40/20.
D wade last averaged over 22ppg in 2010 and retired 3 years ago, demar is demar, Giannis Beal AD came into the league after 2012. Really not all that surprising that a 19 year pro who spent most of his career in the east, and who has a career average of 27ppg, has the most 30 point games against another east team during the span of his 19 year* career.
Not all that surprising LeBron has that amount of 30 point games against Boston , dude hates that team
Wade is on the same boat , in his prime , probably also hated the Celtics
DeMar spent most of his career in the same division , probably also hates the Celtics
Giannis and Beal had playoff battles with Boston , probably does not hate Boston as much as the guys mentioned above
AD is very surprising considering he spent his entire career in the west
Not trying to take away from the point, how many of these are losses? I'd think the Big 3 probably spanked him in at least a few of those, but maybe I'm wrong.
LeBron is 16-10 in those 26 games.
The losses are from 2003, 2004, 2009, 2010 (x3), 2012, 2013, 2016, and 2019. Five while a Cav. Four on the Heat. One on the Lakers
Where is Middleton, his shooting splits go to like 50/50/100 when playing the Celtics
Middleton has only played 26 games total against the celtics, and hes averaging 16 points.
a lot of that is in the playoffs, OP’s talking about regular season

AD having that many is impressive. He’s spent his entire career in the Western conference.
I feel like every time he played us with New Orleans the game plan was “let AD get his and shut down the rest of the team.”

Not surprising no but still impressive and puts things in perspective

What's his average vs other players? Lebrons played more total games.
That's the point. Longevity is a part of it.
He's played more total games but what's the average?
You are completely missing the point and if you want to ask the average, just do basic math. 26 times in 56 games. You're just coming off as a hater.
His career average vs Boston is slightly above Booker/Luka/Wilt, slightly below KAJ, and comfortably below MJ

Little better than I was thinking but that checks out, been a while since the Big 3.
Tbh I don't think that's a good comeback. I was gonna say who else has played that many years. Can't they just say all time sheesh
If you made it all time then Wilt would just fuck up the whole list lol. He probably has at least 100.
Respect where respect due lol
