    What are his crunch time stats? They can't be very good...

    Good question. Obviously John Paxson and Ron Harper were far superior players.

    If the criterion is number of triple-doubles, then Fat Lever is in the hall of fame.

    I don't exactly know what you're "jeeshing"... at least put a name at the end of all these numbers.

    If it's Chris Paul, you wasted your time posting these stats, since people already said it. I forget about Chris Paul, honestly, because he's accumulated stats, but not much else. lol.

    It's not hate... I'm just not impressed. He can't do it in the playoffs.

    Okay, here's more precise:

    He can't win in the playoffs.

    I'm surprised I needed to spell out the obvious. Stats don't tell the whole story, breh.

    Some guy named Magic was a 'decent' PG and has 5 Titles and 3 Finals MVP's to go with it. That might be Score Board.

    so him playing some of the best basketball in the history of the NBA playoffs is irrelevant to his playoff performance.

    good point! :smiley-pat:

    Yep. I don't care about the stats. If your team can't win, who cares?

    Dame could get 5 triple doubles in a row, and if we went 1-4, who cares?

    Win....

    Im no fan of the lakers, but MAgic deserves and should have all NBA fans respect regardless of the Lakers Magic was one of the nicest, upbeat people the NBA has ever seen on the court. He brought showtime to the NBA and really changed the game.
