    I mean, as impressive as those accomplishments all are, it sets the table for the obvious "one stat to rule them all" goal: four triple doubles in one game by the same player, one per quarter. That gets you the record for quickest triple double, gets a quadruple of sorts, and accounts for a minimum of 120 points, so clearly surpasses Kobe's 81.

    Serious question....the combine surprised me for Oladipo...he looks short to me the few times I've seen him play..You don't think CJ has grown since the draft? combine? Those are old stats now. I do. Look at him next to Dame now compared to his rookie season...eye test. You could be right...just saying guys still grow in their 20s..and CJ definitely had a late growth spurt starting out as a 5'2 player back in the day. I've noticed CJ seems taller than Dame side by side than he used to...it used to be hard to tell their height difference but now it seems obvious CJ is taller. You are right about the combine measurements for sure..

    Wow... gotta give it up for Doc. That was an amazingly classy move. Hard to hate on him there.

    You're Brandon Ingram? How'd you feel about LeBron trying to trade you?

    I'm still scratching my head. Isn't being bi and going both ways the same?

    LOL! This dude "averages" 25/6/2 (TWO!? why even include such an insignificant number!?!) over a FIVE GAME stretch and people are getting excited? Oh, and how many wins? One? You mean to tell me this MFer put up some rather pedestrian numbers, lost 80% of the games, and other MFers are talking about it? GTFO!

    I’m not a fan of Ingrim, but if my starting SF averaged 24 and 6..... I’d be cool with the 2.

    But he doesn't. And his team sucks because he sucks.

    What? You just said that's what he was averaging and were complaining about the 2.

    Someone refresh me, what did we get for trading that first to Denver in 2016 that became Beasley? I’d sure like him and Barton back.
