The current conversion rate of the Canadian dollar to US dollar is .72 US dollars to each Canadian dollar.

Using the transitive property to apply this disparity to all things crossing over between the countries, we can see that an American scoring points in Canada would benefit from the conversion rate. 8 US points scored in Canada would be worth 11.06 Canadian points. Rounding down, we still see that LeBron’s streak is alive.

This makes sense, I promise.

this also means that points scored by Toronto Raptors players will be worth less than those scored by loyal real American patriots…
Vince Carter will be bumped down the all time scorer list due to effectively scoring 3446 modern American points as a Raptors operative during home games

This does not take into account currency conversion when the points were scored nor adjust for inflation.

You have to look at currency adjustment at the time points were scored. It changes daily. I’m surprised more NBA stat repositories aren’t tracking this stuff.

“2 points ain’t 2 points. That’s a lie. 2 points is not 2 points. I’ll explain it to you later. Coaches have said that for years, but 2 points is not 2 points”

It’s just not gonna be the same number of 1298, gotta remove all the games played in Canada or anywhere abroad (not sure if he caught any Abu Dhabi/Paris/Mexico games)

Well, that would mean you have to take out all games that he played outside of the US, which is probably a lot, meaning that his streak is probably below 1,100.

Once or twice a year. So at most minus 46 games.

You think he played ~²⁰⁰⁄₁₂₉₇ regular season games in Canada 🤣

~15% of the games

Roughly 1 in 7 games

When there are 30 teams in the league

And only half the games are played away

You believe that every seventh game LeBron went to Canada

Stupid mf

It still wouldn’t be anywhere near that, but he’s been playing so long I legit had to check when the Grizzlies left Vancouver.

3 years before he was drafted, so almost had some games there.

If Jordan is second though it wouldn’t get that much different though in terms of gap. You could argue it’d be a bigger gap because of the time LeBron played in LA.

Then it’s not 1298 since you would have to subtract all the previous games in Toronto as well for this to be true.

LeBron James extends his streak of scoring 10+ points in games to 1298 on American soil

Yeah, that’s not how that works lol. You have to remove all the other games outside America from the total too.
