I hardly think scoring champ should ve the one with most points in general than most ppg. Its not Tatums fault for eg that he played more games than Embid. As in all time leading scorers we look at most points global, not most ppg. Thats the top scorer.
Average is better than total because you’re not a better scorer because you average 27 points and play all 82 games and I average 31 but only played 65 due to injury
