Does it seem to anybody else that there are more crazy statlines this year then there have been in the past couple of season? It just feels like, to me, that we’re seeing insane stuff happening every single night.
This is the 31st triple double of the season, courtesy of Nicolas Batum. That doesn’t sound like a lot, but remember that lockout-shortened season? There were a mere 18 trippy-doobies that season, and one of them didn’t count because the “person” who supposedly achieved it, Ben Uzoh, doesn’t even really exist. Otherwise I would have made a video of it. Duh.
And it’s not just triple doubles. It’s everything related to scoring. If there’s a way to put the ball in the hole, NBA players are doing it with gusto, repeatedly, multiple times, over and over again.
Maybe it’s just me. Anyway, enjoy this excellent performance by Nic and try to ignore all the other crazy performances that happened tonight, at least for a moment.
