Lol nobody even brought up that as an achievement until Magic Johnson.

Lol you don’t do some 181 times unintentionally and he’s not dumb they were definitely aware of it

@@balls1450 they counted assist differently its likley that he actually had more by todays standards

I agree in an interview Oscar said if I would have known it was going to be a big deal I would have done it more often.

I had a Jason Kidd folder in elementary school 🤣

As a player? Is that you Harp?

Agreed. As much as the least clutch player in nba history is overrated.

Overated as a person ;)

Kareem mentions Oscar when the subject comes up.

@@johannesswillery7855 So does Dr.J

I feel like the older generations are falling out of consideration for the goat for some reason

That’s because people hate Russell Westbrook so bad, that they take an amazing statistic and make it seem worthless…. Just because he’s the one who holds the record.

@Wil Paul stats actually show his team wins over 70% of the time when he gets a triple double

I got to see him playing at Garden his final season ... I was only 12 so really didn't appreciate what I was seeing!

Yeah, but everyone who played in the league when there were 8-15 teams is going to get overlooked. They simply didn't have to face the same level of competition, so their accomplishments are less impressive. Just like how people putting up records today are getting snubbed because of the lack of defense in the league. Different times, different levels of accomplishment.

Ikr

If they were counted then Wilt's records would've been even crazier, He would have the unbeatable all-time blocks record

I’ve had some triple singles in my days but never a single triple

I mean he did play 5’7 cashiers so…

@@Kingkam_77 actually no he didn’t, The average height for the NBA during the time Wilt played is around 6 foot 5.5, And every team had a centre that was at least 6 foot 10 to combat Wilt. It’s a myth that he played short players

That's the crazy thing about Wilt ...I mean there's footage on KZfaq of the guy casually having 5 block quarters.

A few years ago, I read an article about students who asked the NBA organization to grant access to the archives in order to count blocks of players like Bill Russell and Chamberlain. Russell reportedly had 8.6 per game and Chamberlain blocked his opponents' throw 28 times in one game. Amazing.

@@erebor4nierdzewny970 I watched a video from JxmyHighroller that if the league counted his 8.6 blocks per game, wilt would have 10,560 blocks (correct me if im wrong).

@@markelbatone5819 I hope NBA do this. Those Legends deserve this respect...

@@jamespuso1627 my mycareer player would like to disagree

10 blocks in a game....just damn....that's crazy

But back then you didn't had the rule, that you can only stand three seconds in the zone. So for example imagine a Rudy Gobert or even Tacko Fall standing the whole under the rim. This is also supported by the fact, that back then the Players literally shot no threes and where just running towards the rim. So please stop comparing different ages with each other an jumping into conclusions.

Wemby is coming. ;)

Wemby is not a passer like Jokic. But I see him doing a quadruple-double games, when he would pass well.

Last few years in OKC, he'd get mad when guys would make an extra pass, denying him of a possible assist.

Jordan could have a few more if Rodman shared some of his rebounds around.

@@RandomPlaceHolderName yeah man what did u see one highlight of that happening?😂

Yeah, he steals rebounds from his teammates. More than once, Steven Adams looked like he wanted to break bones after Westbrook did that to him.

No, it reveals how dominant the Lakers were. Magic never won anything by himself. No player ever does.

If you notice, his numbers skyrocket as soon as KD got hurt, and then after he left. That offense had to run through Westbrook after that

He’s a very selfish player. Westbrook will never win a title because of anything he does. If he’s on a team that wins a title then it will be in spite of him rather than because of him. He’s team cancer.

was thinkin the same thing. just hope his career isn't as sad as westbrooks

The game has changed...in the next 10-15 years almost all the old school players will be off the list. Players prioritize stats now more than ever before

They will end up high on the list

Pretty sure Russ has more games with 9 rebounds or assists in NBA history. And his teams let him get the rebounds because it helps him push the ball in transition. Hence why his teams are always at the top of the league in pace. He has the 2nd most offensive rebounds in history or a PG behind Kidd in 500 less games. Let that hate go man.

@@NBATheory I heard this argument so many times, apparently only Russ of all PGs figured out that ball transition formula. Not buying it. It's not hate, I just don't like to watch selfish players turning the game into their personal showcase. It's a team sport. He is the only player I know boxing out his teammates, once I even saw he was yelling to Adams in the middle of a game for not letting him to grab the easy rebound (btw how about Adams' stats?). I have seen him sometimes didn't take a single shot and forced unnecessary assits during a whole quarter because he was one assist away from his triple double. Like many said his triple doubles are not organic, it's not the result of a good team play, it's one individual chasing his own glory. That's why when he averaged triple double numbers 4 season in 5 years, his teams didn't even make the playoffs or lost in 1st round at best. Congrats on most inefficient triple doubles in history. There is a reason when you google "stat padder" it looks like you entered Russ's insta page, dude's face is everywhere. Even though he is a talented player he got this title by stat padding and we all know it.

@@NBATheory people just like to hate greatness lmao

@@NBATheory Russell Westbrook is highly overrated. If he ever wins a ring it will not be because of anything he does. It will be in spite of him.

@@kevinlovehandle7045 And yet, Westbrook has never been great. He’s team cancer.

He definitely chose to play differently in 1967 to lead the league in assists that season. Definitely could've had way more

*And Wilt's single triple!

And Fat Lever (along with magic and bird)! (probably the least elite player to make it high on the list, at least since the 50s - he was a pretty good player but basically he was a point guard who could rebound.)

Yeah russ was the first in the era to do it.. what are you gonna start saying curry’s range isn’t impressive cause other players can shoot that far now too?? Lmao ignorant asf

I was a Nuggets fan in the mid 80s so I remember him well. He wasn't one of the greats but he was a hardworking, overachieving player. He had a knack for slapping rebounds out of big players' hands so he got a lot of rebounds despite being skinny and undersized.

2K players know every player in history lol
