I would have thought Bill Russell would be on here, even though he wasn't an amazing offensive player. With 11 rings, I would have thought he would have at least broken 3,000 points, but apparently not
Took me forever to think of Havlicek. I was like "Who on earth could have won eight times? Well, he must have played with Bill Russell..." and then I tried Cousy like three times before I thought of Hondo.

Biggest surprises for me were Bill Russell missing out (he had 2,673) and Wilt Chamberlain barely making the list (I assumed he would've been much higher).
Yes, you're really comparing apples and oranges with these types of lists. It drives me absolutely batty every year during the Major League Baseball playoffs when it seems like every game someone is setting a new all-time postseason record. When the Yankees were dominating baseball in the 1930s, they only played a best-of-seven World Series. Playoff rounds have continued to be added since the early Eighties, and now with the new format starting in 2022, a wild card team could play up to 24 postseason games in one year. I don't necessarily object to all of the additional rounds/games, but I do object to the television networks shoving it down our throats that some mediocre Houston Astro has the all-time postseason record for walks just because he happens to be playing in the 21st Century. Sorry that my screed focused on baseball, but it equally applies to the NBA.
Should ABA playoff points also count? Regardless of whether they, the list is missing Dr J (Julius Erving), who with ABA games counting scored over 4500 points in the playoffs, without ABA games, didn't do the math but over 3000 points.
Also, what's the source here? Not listed in the credits.
the playoffs were shorter back then, so less games, which equals less points
