People say he isn't a team player because he doesn't try to hit doubles or try to stretch a single into a double, he just wants to safely get on base.
I think he does help his team. Like noted before he also plays great defense. I don't think he really broke the record, but if you consider that boggs greatest year was 240 hits and tony gwynn's greatest year was 220 then Ichiro's record is pretty impressive. Also, Ichiro is number 10 on the list of most singles in a season. Every other person on that list played in the 20s or 30s.
