Ir this is nor sarcasm (gambling problem), OP is has 0 idea what he'a on about. You just can't have a more narrow view of things than that.

Look at the disclaimer at the top. Then, ignore the rest.

How should I read this graphic to arrive at that conclusion?

Methodology: Used top 5 avg. points per season scorers plus Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (record holder). For projections, calculated each players career average points per season and average games played per season and multiplied the two to produce cumulative sums.

The "if He Didn't Have a Gambling Problem" part of the title is sarcasm.

Edit: Updated methodology section.

somebody can help me for how do I install my VE type1?? plz!

Maybe it’s just my rose colored glasses liking Leo movies but I kinda thought that’s what the point was. Scientists have been shouting climate change from the rooftops for DECADES now - it’s an extremely obvious thing and we already know how it’s going to affect us. But even though it’s so blatant there’s still little change.

I don't understand how the guy still scores so many points. He's lumbering around the court these days, but still finds points.

His game is totally different from what it was 10 years ago. That's normal for an older player, but what doesn't seem normal is how he is still so effective. Different playstyle from 10 years ago, but still scoring points left and right.

Length of viewing time as a metric for popularity doesn't really work here. A 90 minute movie watched 1,000,000 times is 1.5 million hours of viewing time. A 2 hour movie watched 800,000 times will beat that with 1.6 million hours of viewing time and be more popular on this graph despite having 80% of the views.

"Popularity" is already kind of a nebulous thing to define anyway. If 10 people like movie A, but have no intent to ever watch it again and 8 people absolutely love Movie B and call it their favorite movie of all time, constantly re-watch it, and introduce it to others but the other 2 hate it... which movie is more popular?

I’ve never heard of any of them. Not a movie watcher.

That many people watched The Adam Project?!?!? I saw no conversation about it online at all, and no one I know has watched it. At least every other movie on here I heard or read about after it’s release, or watched it myself.

Idk but people still buy Microsoft stock and I believe the CEO is paid pretty good

Kareem played in the NBA for 10 years before they instituted the 3 point shot. As in the nba didn't have a 3 point shot until 1979. He was drafted 1969.

In fact is was guys like wilt and Kareem that had the nba create the idea of it. Their size and dominance was noted and the 3 pointer was to give smaller people a better chance to score and spread out defenses around the basket. Overall making the game more entertaining.

Why would anyone ever start a company, or invest in a company if they could never be compensated for it?

not views, 282 Million hours of time viewing it

it's slightly longer than 2 hours which means that's less than 141 Million views, and even that number is kind of weird to work with since it would assume no viewers that abandoned it part way through.

It was not unknowingly. They are coming.

Points per game

1. Lebron James 27.2 ppg
2. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar 24.6 ppg
3. Karl Malone 25 ppg
4. Kobe Bryant 24.9 ppg
5. Michael Jordan 30.1 ppg
6. Dirk Nowitzki 20.7 ppg
7. Wilt Chamberlain 30 ppg
8. Shaquille O'Neal 23.7 ppg
9. Carmelo Anthony 22.5 ppg
10. Moses Malone 20.6 ppg

I couldn’t get through it.

It's very long, which might work against rewatching and finishing it, reducing overall hours

I used Mapchart to make the map and used Wikipedia’s article to get the change in score whose source is the EIU’s report.

Edit: Realized I accidentally put “Economic” instead of “Economist” at the top.

So the best Netflix can do is a group of mediocre films? I miss the theater.

you mean the demand for bad movies is higher than the demand for good movies :)
