The 2013-14 NBA season is less than three months away and excitement levels
are already high. LeBron James has his eyes on a third straight championship,
Dwight Howard will try to prove doubters wrong, and the Brooklyn Nets aim to
make a deep playoff run with their new squad. But for many of the long-time
veterans in the league, this upcoming season is a chance for them to further
etch their names into the record books.



Here are seven players who have milestones in their sights:

下面我們選取了7位球員，看看他們可能達到哪些里程碑：


Kobe Bryant – Points, Assists, Free Throws

Bryant will face his biggest challenge this summer as he attempts to
successfully rehab from a torn Achilles’ tendon suffered in mid-April. But
when he does return, he’ll have multiple milestones in clear sight. The most
important milestone for Bryant is points as he needs only 676 points to pass
Michael Jordan for third all time. It will take Bryant nearly 300 more games
than Jordan played to pass His Airness, but that doesn’t diminish the
milestone’s significance.  Bryant also needs 113 assists to become only the
30th player in NBA history to reach 6,000 and 532-free throw attempts to
become only the fifth player to attempt at least 10,000 free throws. The
other four who’ve done it: Shaquille O’Neal, Wilt Chamberlain, Moses
Malone, and Karl Malone. That’s okay company.




Kevin Garnett – Field Goals, Minutes, Rebounds, Blocks

It’s easy to understand how one of the most dominant players in the league
for the past 18 seasons is on the verge of multiple milestones. He needs 363
field goals to pass Moses Malone, George Gervin, Dan Issel, and John Havlicek
for 11th all time. After playing 58 minutes next season, he will pass Wilt
Chamberlain for sixth all time to join the elite company of Moses Malone,
Elvin Hayes, Jason Kidd, Karl Malone, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Then he’ll
also need 399 rebounds to reach ninth all time and 30 blocks to reach 2,000
for his career. All four of these milestones are attainable if he stays
healthy and soon he’ll be able to add Hall-of-Fame inductee to his list of
milestones.




Steve Nash – Assists, Turnovers

The almost 40-year-old Nash is close to two significant milestones for next
season. He is only 86 assists away from passing Mark Jackson for third all
time and he needs just 90 turnovers to move into 10th all time. The turnover
milestone may seem like a bad thing, but it shows its importance when you
look at the nine players who will be in front of him: Hakeem Olajuwon, Isiah
Thomas, Kobe Bryant, Artis Gilmore, Julius Erving, Jason Kidd, John Stockton,
Moses Malone, and Karl Malone. It doesn’t get much more elite than that.




Andre Miller – Assists

Miller has been one of the best distributors in the league for most of his
14-year career, but his lack of flashiness has caused him to be consistently
underrated. However, if he can collect 44 assists next season he will reach
8,000 for his career and join Gary Payton, Isiah Thomas, Oscar Robertson,
Magic Johnson, Steve Nash, Mark Jackson, Jason Kidd, and John Stockton as the
only players to reach the milestone.




Ray Allen – 3-Point

Unlike all of the other milestones mentioned, Allen has already reached the
top of the statistical category and now he’s just extending his lead. It
will take a good season for him to make 143 3-pointers, but if he does he
will become the first player in NBA history to reach 3,000 3-pointers and it’
ll make his record even more difficult to pass.




Paul Pierce – Points

Pierce’s first season outside of Boston could be a historic one if he is
able to score 979 points to reach 25,000 for his career. Only 21 players in
NBA history have reached this mark and Dirk Nowitzki, Garnett, and Bryant are
the only active players to get there. It would an incredible accomplishment
for Pierce who has faced and conquered many challenges during his 15-year
career.




Jason Terry – 3-Point

Many people fail to notice how prolific Terry’s 3-point shooting has been
throughout his career. But with only 78 3-pointers next season he will pass
Jason Kidd to become third all time and join the special company of Reggie
Miller and Ray Allen. Consistency has been the key for Terry as his rookie
year was the only season during his 14-year career in which he shot below 34
percent from 3-point range.
