Monta Ellis in 2010-11 is the last player to exceed 40 minutes per game over the course of a season. Only two active players exceed 40 minutes per game in a season (LeBron James, and Andre Iguodala). James did it three times (2005-06, 2006-07, and 2007-08), and Iguodala once (2006-07).

Allen Iverson is the only player since NBA/ABA merger (1976) to average over 40 minutes per game in his career in the regular season and over 40 minutes per game in the playoffs.

Luka Doncic has won 4 regular-season games by 40+ points in his 126-game career.

Dirk Nowitzki won 3 games by 40+ points in his 1,522-game career.

I mean they score a lot more points in today’s game also and less defense.

Monta Ellis! I haven't heard that name in nearly four years. He was so quick, skilled and fearless.
I always tried to acquire him on NBA 2K11 but the Warriors would never accept my trade offers.

not less defense, just faster pace.

Back in the 80's they were scoring almost as many PPG on average (110+ ppg).

Don't tell me what to do

If you would just use corpse explosion then he wouldn't be able to
