Most free throws missed in a game

Please add record for most free throws missed in a game:

Most free throws missed in a game

23 by Andre Drummond, Detroit Pistons (at Houston Rockets) on January 20, 2016^[1]

Semi-protected edit request on 3 April 2019

This edit request to NBA regular season records has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Please add, "27 by the Houston Rockets vs. the Pheonix Suns on April 7, 2019" under the record for "Most 3-point field goals made in a game." dmonroy99 (talk) 1:18, 7 April 2019 (UTC)

Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. 1:18, 7 April 2019 (UTC) http://www.espn.com/nba/boxscore?gameId=401071874

Most game-winning buzzer-beaters (career)

It should say Micheal Jordan (9 game-winning buzzer-beaters). Please correct this page.

Michael Jordan is not the record holder. Michael Jordan has 6 in the regular season and 3 in the playoffs. We only include regular season on here. Kobe Bryant and Joe Johnson are the leaders with 7 career regular season buzzer beaters. Best, - BeFriendlyGoodSir (talk) 00:18, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Most field goals missed outdated

The record for most field goals missed has been broken by Lebron James after the season opener of the 2024-2-25 season. His record now stands at 14,485. The source of Kobe's record has been updated and thus doesn't need updating. NekrozTrish (talk) 22:18, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 21 November 2024

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at List of NBA regular season records. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

This part should be deleted (about Vince Carter):

(only player to have played in four different decades)^[1]

The cited part is a false interpretation of decades. Since the timeline starts with the year 1 (there was no year 0), the first decade in history was from 1 to 10, therefore the recent decades were from 1991 to 2000, 2001 to 2010, 2011 to 2020, and the current one is from 2021 to 2030. Since Vince Carter started his career in 1998 and ended in 2020, he played only in 3 decades, namely the 1991-2000, the 2001-2010 and the 2011-2020. So, there is a difference if you speak about the 2nd decade of this century, which is from 2011 to 2020, and the 2010s, latter meaning the years 2010-2019. But you cannot call the latter a decade according to Chronology as an auxiliary science of history. You may check also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decade.

The source provided, admittedly from the NBA has "he became the first NBA player to appear in four different decades". There's also [1] and [2] which says "Vince Carter becomes first NBA player to appear in four decades". I think this requires more discussion as well since as our decade page says, a majority of people in America think of decade as going from 0 to 9 and not 1 to 0. Any other sources that say something different, @Gergely Nagy HU? Skynxnex (talk) 20:55, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
