I think the thing your all missing is other than being a good allround player you only have to get 10 stls OR blocks, not both.AK is a terrible choice. He simply doesn't get enough trip dubs to get there.............. well thats what i was going to say, then i had a really close look at the stats. Jason kidd has never gotten more than 5 stls or blks - so its way unlikely he'd do it!Kevin Garnett once got 7 blks but that was back in 99LBJ - got 7 steals once and he is still young, so its a possibility.AK47 - well he once got <u>10blks </u>but he also has career high of <u>8 stls</u> So that has completely changed my mind he could do it!!!AK47 for elpresidentay
Yeah, wilt may have, they didn't keep all the stat categorys we have now for awhile.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (SunnyD @ Aug 26 2006, 11:23 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>So what, no one expected Hakeem to get 10 assists, or Alvin Robertson to get 10 rebounds. It can happen. Kidd isn't too old, that's ignorant. I'll admit he has slowed down, but he is still able to make plays and grab rebounds. Chris Paul can get steals, what are you talking about? Ben Wallace just rebounds is a pretty bad analysis. He can score 10 points easily. Rebounds is a given, blocks can come, and 10 assists isn't hard, Ben could do that.I messed up not saying KG or Lebron though. I should have put them on the list.</div>While Big Ben can score and block, he doesn't normally do those AND rebound all at once. It varies every game. I also doubt he'll get 10 assists. Paul can get steals, but whats the last time ANYONE got 10 steals? Isn't 8 like the record(or maybe that's playoff record) by Iverson. Marion's gotten 8 before I believe, but he won't be getting 10 assists.

I dont think so.....Andrei Kirilenko has proven that he can get 8 blocks or somewhere around that, so if he has a freakish night where he goes off even more, it can happen. Im not saying that it will, but if there was somebody to do it, it would be AK.

Marion's gotten 8 steals in 1 game, and 6 blocks in one game, and 8 assists in one game, doesn't mean he can do it whenever. Maybe, that WAS a freakish night for Kirilenko. So he can't get anymore freakish, because that WAS his freakish, getting 8 blocks.
Yeah but he has HAD 10 BLKS!!!!!! and 8 STLS so he has a shot of getting 10 in either one- He has shown that he can get right up there. Marion has NEVER got 10 Assists? wow!
Dont sleep on Tim Duncan, He almost had a triple double against the Nets in the NBA Finals a few years back.

Its like this: Someone can have a monster game, and get a quadruple double. The person won't average it for a season, but for one night, it's not impossible. I'm not sleeping on Duncan, it's very possible he could get it. He's a big man like The Dream and The Admiral.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Maybe, that WAS a freakish night for Kirilenko.

Players imo eligible for a triple double:Andrei KirilenkoBonzi WellsLebron JamesChris PaulKobe BryantPaul PierceTracy McGradyRon ArtestJason KiddBoris Diaw
Actually, I just looked it up and Kirlenko had 10 blocks in a game. That was a triple double. 15 pts, 14 boards, 10 blocks, 3 steals, 3 assists. So I suppose he IS capable, but I still don't believe anyone will get it anytime soon.

like I said in an early post, AK was very close to a quadouple double once last year. he was like a block and two steals away from it. if anyone currently in the NBA can do it, it will be him.James doesn't play defense long enough because his team needs him to focus more on scoring. Diaw is a decent defender, but I don't see him being able to get anywhere near the needed steals or blocks. and T-Mac(someone keeps mentioning him) has a bad back, so its going to be iffy if he even gets the needed minutes to put up those kind of numbers.IMO someone will need to play all 48 minutes to get a quad.
