The Michael Jordan answer shows how desparate people are to try to make Michael the greatest player ever, NO MATTER WHAT QUESTION IS BEING ASKED... \n\nThe question was "who's the top scorer in the NBA in the eighties"... \n\nThe answer is NOT Michael Jordan. The question wasn't "who was the leading scorer from 1986-1989?"  What part of "the eighties" didn't you understand?\n\nJulius Erving was pretty much through as a player by 1985, although he did play a couple of more years after that...\n\nMagic wasn't a prolific scorer for most of the 80s, because Kareem was still the Laker's # 1 option on offense until 1987... Magic took over and averaged about 23 points per game, but that was his highest scoring average up to that point in time, and he'd only averaged 17 PPG in 1986.\n\nMost points scored 1980-1989\n\n1. Alex English 21,018\n2. Moses Malone 19,082\n3. Adrian Dantley 18,157\n4. Larry Bird  17,899\n5. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar 16,246 \n\nThe answer to the question is Hall of Famer Alex English.\n\nIn addition to being the 5th leading scorer of the 80s, Kareem was also the leading scorer in the 1970s, with 22,141 points in that decade.  Elvin Hayes was 2nd in the 70s with "only" 18,922 points.\n\nMichael Jordan was 29th in scoring during the 80s, with 11,263 points.

No current NBA players participated in the 1976 Summer Games. FIBA allowed professional athletes to play in international competition for the first time in 1989 and the next Olympics was in '92.

CAN'T SAY I GOT TO WATCH THE OLD "ABA", BUT I STARTED TO SEE THE "NBA" WHEN "DR. J" CAME INTO THE LEAGUE. I THINK THERE WAS A DIFFERENT KIND OF PASSION AND SPORTSMANSHIP DURING THOSE DAYS. I DO MISS STARS LIKE LLOYD(WORLD) B. FREE, ELVIN HAYES, JOHN (HONDO) HAVLICEK, DAVE COWENS, ARTIS GILMORE, CLYDE THE GLIDE FRAZIER,........SEE WHERE I AM GOING? I DO MISS THOSE MATCH UPS.

Yeah, you are probably thinking of Doak Walker. He played college ball at Texas (I think, or maybe it was one of the other Texas schools besides UT), and then he played for the Detroit Lions during their most recent glory days of the 1950s.

There is (or was...not sure about current status) a guy named Sun Ming Ming who is 7'8 3/4" tall who signed with a USBL team (U.S. Basketball League....like the CBA and NBDL minor leagues) last March...think he signed with the Dodge City Legend team...He may have played college hoops in China, but I don't think he played here

C'est en 1981 que la NBA décide d'introduire la ligne à 3 points afin de rendre le jeu plus spectaculaire en élargissant le périmètre défensif. La règle sera adoptée en Europe en 1984.
