    Really loose query: all the 40/4/4/0 games. Dame's is clearly the best.

    Well, he scored 41 points in the first half, and 59 in the second half.

    Durant actually had a really bad night in his... 41% and 21% from 3... it's only the 17/19 at the line that got him there.

    Has any other team scored 137 without an overtime this season or in recent years? (not talking allstar games here)

    Yeah I wish I could add more query filters; add either FTA < 10 or MP < 35 and the list drops down to one.

    We scored 139 against philly in 2013... and I don't think it was in OT.

    How often does a team score 105 in regulation and lose in today's NBA?

    Even on a two-stat query the game was rare; on the total game it was a unicorn.

    Our unicorn.

    http://www.basketball-reference.com has Minutes Played stats sine 1983-84. Here's a look at Points per Minute Played for players scoring 50 points or more in a playoff or regular season game -

    Dame is #6 (since MP stats have been recorded, 1983-84). That was a hell of a game last night!

    Quite a bit, actually.

    Philly scored 114 last night, lost by 7.

    Toronto scored 106 last night, lost by 10.

    Atlanta scored 111 last night, lost by 4.

    Dallas scored 104 last night, lost by 6.

    (I understand you said 105... but that's close enough!)

    Well, then.... I was just curious. I feel like we hardly hit 105 and when we do, we win.

    Its occurred to me several times this season, especially seeing LMA shrink in huge games as usual, that he was holding Dame back. Now Lillard is free to be the best player on the team and no one's going to get their little feelers hurt and pout. We got lucky Aldridge rejected the team.

    Zero turnovers just means he wasn't trying hard enough to get his teammates involved.

    No risk, no reward.

    Did you even watch the game Dog or did you just look at the box score? If you just look at the box score it does appear Damian was playing unguarded. But if you actually made the effort to watch the game you would see the GSW actually did make an effort to play defense on him.
