Hoops Links: Celtics, Kings, Spurs, Pistons

On this date in 1984, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar scored 15 points to become the first player in NBA history to surpass 32,000 career points, as the Lakers topped the Warriors, 131-107.  Kareem would keep that mantle as he continued playing until 1989 and amassed 38,387 in total.  Will we see anyone approach that number anytime soon?  Kobe Bryant is fifth on the all-time list with more than 30,500 points, but the Lakers guard has made it clear that he wants to leave the Association on a high note, before his high-mileage catches up with him.  LeBron James has nearly 20,000 points to his credit and a lot of basketball in front of him, but he still has a tall mountain to climb.
