This is the official JBB NBA trivia thread. One person will ask an NBA related question and everyone's got to try and figure out the answer, once someone posts the answer someone else will ask a question and the process will go on. Please try and ask some intuitive questions and nothing simple where someone could just go on Google on and find the answer . I'll start off: Who was the first player in NBA history to record a quadruple-double?
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting notMuchgame:</div><div class="quote_post">I know Alvin Robertson had one ...not sure if he was the first though</div> He wasn't the first.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting realdealbneal:</div><div class="quote_post">OOH Thurmond. Nate. Geez, I'm a bum haha.</div> Correct . Now someone come up with a new question.....
The National Basketball Association was not always called the NBA. What was the league named before the NBA?
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting realdealbneal:</div><div class="quote_post">The National Basketball Association was not always called the NBA. What was the league named before the NBA?</div> I think it was the ABA?
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting TwinTowers:</div><div class="quote_post">NBL, National Basketball League</div> Actually, the answer you gave is close...but the answer I'm looking for is the league that the NBL joined, before THIS league changed its name to the NBA.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Avery:</div><div class="quote_post">Okay, I got one. Who was the only player to ever have a double triple-double? This is easy one.</div> Wilt, The Stilt
Uh, okay...the answer to my question was the BAA (Basketball Association of America). Guess nobody knew it.

As most of us know Allen Iverson leads the NBA in active players with the most 40+ Points games, and for the record he had 50 40+ Point Games. But the question is who is 2nd among active players in the NBA with those most 40+ Point games?
