Triple Double

Back in the 1970s hall of fame baseball player Reggie Jackson was known as “Mr. October” for his legendary clutch moments in the playoffs as a member of the New York Yankees and the Oakland Athletics. I think it is time we start referring to Russell Westbrook as “Mr. Triple Double.” Westbrook registered his incredible [...]

Although the Cavaliers suffered another disappointing loss, this time 106-101 in Detroit Thursday night, vintage LeBron was on display. Dunking on everything in site and flying around like a 25-year-old earning yet another triple-double. This triple-double was a little more special though as it was the 50th of his historic career.

The past three years Draymond Green has worked his way up and morphed into one of the most diversely skilled and valuable players in the NBA. He has an ability to defend multiple positions, be a rim protector, the conductor of the most beautiful offense the NBA has seen in years (with a kings ransom [...]

Russell Westbrook is the realest. Maybe that has something to do with the fact that he’s averaging a triple-double. You read that correctly. He is Oscar Robertson-ing the the modern-day NBA. Or maybe Westbrook’s status as the realest is due to him not giving two craps about averaging said triple-double. As he said after the [...]

The moment that Kevin Durant decided to sign with the Golden State Warriors (and sell his soul to the devil, just kidding, maybe…) was the moment that everyone not only wondered just how dangerous and frightening the Warriors would, but also that “Russell Westbrook was about to put up mind-numbing numbers this season.” Westbrook is [...]

Statisticians have been working overtime in the 2015-16 season as the stat sheet has been stuffed to a level the NBA hasn’t seen in quite some time. With about a month left in the NBA season and most NBA teams having 15 or so games remaining, there have already been more triple-doubles in the league [...]

The year of the Draymond continues in the NBA as Green posted his highly impressive ninth triple-double of the season Sunday in New York in the team’s 48th game of the season. His ability to fill up a stat sheet and his incredible efficiency is reaching historic levels. Green became the first player in 48 [...]

“The Beard” has been known to fill up a stat sheet with his elite scoring ability and rebounding ability for a player at his position. He sets up teammates with his penetration and vision (when he wants to pass) and put on a historic performance in the Rockets 123-114 overtime loss to the Pistons last [...]

Three players registered a triple-double during Friday’s action: Russell Westbrook, Hassan Whiteside and Marcus Smart. This was only the second time this had happened in the NBA in the past 13 years, the only other time was on April 1, 2015. Here is the statline for each player and some additional info: Russell Westbrook: Westbrook [...]

Sneaker release date be damned is one of the things I took away from Chris Paul’s recent performance in a Seattle AM game on Saturday, August 23rd. Aside from recording a triple-double in effortless style, CP3 (unknowingly or not) debuted his new signature sneaker before Jordan Brand even announces it. After having the best performance [...]
