Leaders in most triple doubles missed since 1985

[pauk]

I imagined maybe some more would find this interesting so i post it here, i got this idea last night when i saw Lebron missing yet another triple double, seeing him since his rookie year i remember him overall missing an abnormal amount of triple doubles (often due to blowouts, as in sitting out last minutes/quarter) so i decided to do a bit research including all players... unfortunately basketball-reference's gamefinder doesnt work further back than 1985, im 100% sure Oscar Robertson would be at the top.......

So, the criteria here is the player must had a double-double but missed a triple double with either 1-2 rebounds or assists or points etc. since 1985 (basketball-reference)

1. Lebron James - 77 missed triple doubles in 9 seasons (made a total of 41 career triple doubles, #7 all time)
(46 triple doubles missed by 1-2 assists)
(31 triple doubles missed by 1-2 rebounds)

2. Jason Kidd - 69 missed triple doubles in 19 seasons (made a total of 118 career triple doubles, #3 all-time)
(21 triple doubles missed by 1-2 assists)
(43 triple doubles missed by 1-2 rebounds)
(5 triple doubles missed by 1-2 points)

3. Magic Johnson - 61 missed triple doubles in 7-8 seasons (made a total of 81 triple doubles during those seasons, actual career total is 138 triple doubles, #2 all-time)
(11 triple doubles missed by 1-2 assists)
(50 triple doubles missed by 1-2 rebounds)

4. Larry Bird - 54 missed triple doubles in 7-8 seasons (made a total of 37 triple doubles during those seeasons, actual career total is 59 triple doubles, #5 all-time)
(35 triple doubles missed by 1-2 assists)
(19 triple doubles missed by 1-2 rebounds)

5. Charles Barkley - 52 missed triple doubles in 16 seasons (made a total of 24 career triple doubles)
(49 triple doubles missed by 1-2 assists)
(3 triple doubles missed by 1-2 rebounds)

6. Fat Lever - 48 missed triple doubles in 9 seasons (made a total of 43 career triple doubles)
(26 triple doubles missed by 1-2 assists) in
(22 triple doubles missed by 1-2 rebounds)

7. Kevin Garnett - 47 missed triple doubles in 18 seasons (made a total of 19 career triple doubles)
(46 triple doubles missed by 1-2 assists)
(1 triple double missed by 1-2 rebounds)

8. Clyde Drexler - 40 missed triple doubles in 15 seasons (made a total of 25 career triple doubles)
(25 triple doubles missed by 1-2 assists)
(15 triple doubles missed by 1-2 rebounds)

9. Chris Webber - 38 missed triple doubles in 15 seasons (made a total of 22 career triple doubles)
(35 triple doubles missed by 1-2 assists)
(3 triple doubles missed by 1-2 rebounds)

10. Grant Hill - 37 missed triple doubles in 17 seasons (made a total of 25 career triple doubles)
(27 triple doubles missed by 1-2 assists)
(10 triple doubles missed by 1-2 rebounds)






CONCLUSION: As i guessed, Lebron has missed an unhealthy amount of triple doubles compared to anybody in a very short time.... hell not even Jason Kidd who has played much longer and has many more triple doubles than Lebron has missed that many triple doubles... Lebron has many more triple doubles he missed by way of both rebounds/assists being 1-2 assists short aswell.... :banghead: and oh Charles Barkley & Kevin Garnett surprised me!

[Horatio33]

A thread with a LeBron agenda. Didn't see this happening.

[Hoiids]

According to @CoupNBA LeBron has been just 2 rebs or 2 asst shy of a triple double (as he was last nite) 75 times in his career.


75 or 76, either way, still amazing

[Sarcastic]

You really wasted your time looking up missed triple doubles?

Nah, took max 10 minutes thanks to the gamefinder at basketball-reference... and i always look for basketball knowledge in any shape or form... and this was interesting... better waste that small time on that rather than my other option right now... eh.. watching TV? :P

I just thought maybe some more would find it interesting, thats why i posted it here... thats all :)

[chosen_one6]

I always wondered what the number was for the stat, and now that I know I'm surprised at how high it is.

[arifgokcen]

Damn another lebron thread,now wait for response thread as to why lebron sucks from kenneth or riphtetik.

Fat Lever :bowdown:

[pauk]

Damn another lebron thread,now wait for response thread as to why lebron sucks from kenneth or riphtetik.

This thread is as much of a Lebron thread as it is a Fat Lever, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Kevin Garnett, Charles Barkley, Grant Hill, Clyde Drexler, Jason Kidd thread.... Lebrons last game only gave me the idea to this.... and why Lebron gave me this idea is not because he is a guy im a fan of, but because ive seen him miss a ridicilous amount of triple doubles compared to any other player ive ever been alive to see and ive seen alot of players before him..... and this result as you can see confirms that guess i had with Lebron missing the most..... thats all, i just wanted to know the answer to the question "What 10 guys missed the most triple doubles" and i got it.... thought i would post it here assuming some more would find it interesting.....

Now, that Lebron is at the top, is not my fault.... its not exactly happy news as a Lebron fan, its annoying seeing him miss that many TD's lol...

As far as Kenneth/Ripthekik goes, they do that on any random thread.... i have them on my ignore list, so they can be my guests...

[Sarcastic]

This thread is as much of a Lebron thread as it is a Fat Lever, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Kevin Garnett, Charles Barkley, Grant Hill, Clyde Drexler, Jason Kidd thread....

Fat Lever :bowdown:

Underrated as hell! In 1986 he averaged 19-9-8 and some other seasons he had near triple double averages aswell.... at only 6'3" he averaged two seasons over 9 RPG, in a more modern era mind you... for that size he might be one of the best (if not the best?) rebounders ever...

[pauk]

You can make your Lebron threads, but don't insult our intelligence please.

Look mr Sarcastic, this thread is just some results i decided to show, its based on solely those facts you see above.... there is no "agenda" behind it, just results on who missed the most triple doubles.... its extremply simple... i thought maybe more would find it interesting (and as you can see above, some did)... if you dont like it then leave/ignore this thread or at least spare me your insulting posts while you are here....

The only one who has an "agenda" here is you with your Lebron cynicism... this is just some results and i shouldnt be afraid to show it just because Lebrons name happens to be in it, now please stop derailing the thread... or well, continue to do so, but i wont respond... you are just wasting your and my time.. now if you want to talk about basketball i would be happy to talk with you, get back to me when you decided to do so...

Since you like to look up useless data, can you look up how many players have scored 20ppg every year of their career and made the playoffs every year as well?

[pauk]

Isnt that contradictive? Its useless but you still want to see that "useless data"? Make up your mind? :)

Anyways, sure.. i could do that, but could you be more specific? 20 ppg in both regular season and playoffs their entire career? While being in the playoffs every season? That kindof sounds like probably nobody did... not even Wilt or Jordan...

[Phenith]

You should add in how many made triple doubles they have just for curiosity sake.

[chips93]

those denver teams played at a break-neck pace, they were a novelty. all of their stats were greatly inflated. so while his per-game numbers look impressive, his advanced stats tell the truth

his TRB% shows that he was a very good rebounder for a guard, but not as good as his gaudy RPG numbers would indicate. he was still a great rebounder for a guard, just not as other-worldly as his per game stats indicate

[pauk]

Done! I included season+playoffs... as you maybe have guessed its Oscar Robertson as #1 all-time in terms of triple doubles made, with a ridicilous number of 181... those were only his regular season triple doubles mind you... and i cant even imagine how many he missed... and those were no 10-10-10s a la Jason Kidd... but more like 20/30-10-10s, 40-10-10s and even some 50-10-10s probably.... the guy was an absolute animal... For more triple-double stuff look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_(basketball)

CONCLUSION: As i guessed, Lebron has missed an unhealthy amount of triple doubles compared to anybody in a very short time.... hell not even Jason Kidd who has played much longer and has many more triple doubles than Lebron has missed that many triple doubles...

...

Kidd didn't miss as many triple doubles as LeBron because he actually got them. What kind of logic is being employed when it's being held up as a feat that one player didn't fall short of a many triple doubles as another, when he successfully reached a triple double almost three times as often? Failing to do something is more impressive than actually doing it now?

Doesnt mean anything really except for what those results say... that somebody missed more or less triple doubles, just a cherry picked criteria i was curious about finding out.... nothing significant really... see it that way and things will make sense.. :cheers: I just wished there was data on this with Oscar & Wilt at least, Oscar im sure had a ridicilous number of missed TD's

[Papaya Petee]

Oscar would shit on this list, same with Wilt and possibly Jerry West if this went back further.

You weren't here that long that's why you don't know. He joined after Lebron joined the heat, he was another member who used to post exactly like him (I forget the name) and was annoying as well. And he has a sick love obsession with Lebron and he hates on everyone that isn't Lebron just because. THat is why he doesn't like Kobe, MAgic or Jordan. Because they are as good as Lebron and he just want to show him as the BEST player ever against all odds.

He's not a bad guy but he is annoying...

[zizozain]

someone should make a list of players with most rebounds of missed free throws.

I don't think many people hate Pauk. It's not like we sit around thinking about him while we're offline. It's just funny, as Sarcastic said, that he seemingly comes up with these "random facts" that always somehow include LeBron.

He absolutely does have an agenda. Not that it's bad, but I think his denial makes it bad.

:oldlol:
It's coming from a Lebron fan, what did you expect

[Real Men Wear Green]

CONCLUSION:
You have an unhealthy obsession with LeBron James.

[iamgine]

Criteria should be added:

1-2 rebounds
1-2 Assist
2-4 points
1 rebound, 1 assist
1 rebound, 2 points
1 assist, 2 points

[Wavves]

I think this is more of a compliment towards Lebron as it shows he doesn't stat pad for triple doubles when he's close to them.

Blatche on the other hand...

[Champ]

I actually think Bird comes out looking the best in this comparison, given the disproportionate amount of games he missed from 85-92.

For a stronger argument, you should tabulate the amount of games rather than seasons for each player.

[pauk]

Make it 77 for Lebron with last nights 21-11-9....... seriously that shit is annoying.... fu Lebron :banghead:

I did a search for Jordan (and the Bulls), requiring at least 8 points, 8 rebounds, 8 assist and i could have sworn i counted at least 50 theoretical triple doubles for him. I'll double check again some other night.

Yea, since 1985 he had 52 games (that were not triple doubles) of at least 8 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists:

But thats not the criteria i went after on this thread, i took it a bit closer like example 9-10-10 or 10-9-10 or 10-10-9 and so on... MJ fell a bit short there for the top 10

His triple doubles and "almost" triple doubles were piling up at his best that season when he played alot of Point-Guard in 1988-89 (where he averaged 32-8-8), im pretty sure i remember him having something like 10 triple doubles in a row around that season i think, need to check that

[bdreason]

Reads like a list of my favorite players tbh. Guess I'm a fan of versatile players.

I'm glad Grant Hill is on this list. I sometimes think history will forget him :(

[pauk]

I'm glad Grant Hill is on this list. I sometimes think history will forget him :(

Yea and keep in mind that 99.9% of his triple doubles and almost triple doubles came during his very small peak..... he was a triple double machine

[pauk]

Thanks for clarifying.

A Tripledouble is no bigger deal really, its just arbitrary landmark.... having 10-10-10 (a TD) doesnt mean it should be celebrated more or be more of a accomplishment than 20-15-9 (almost a TD)... better yet those ridicilous statlines MJ used to have, hell his 32-8-8 average season alone is MUCH better than some guy averaging 10-10-10 for a season...

[ClutchOver9000]

It hasnt come down to that, it was just a one time of out of curiousity...

duly noted...

[pauk]

Lebron keeps just adding, he by now has close to 100 of these "almost triple doubles". :banghead:

He aint even close to done yet, by the time Lebron retires he will be known as the biggest "triple double failer" in NBA history lol

Cause the other guys checked their boxscores and padded for that triple double

Lebron ends up with like 30,11,8 at the end of the 3rd quarter and then rests instead of padding his stats

"Best player to get his shot blocked twice in a row in an all-star game."

"Best player ever to cramp in the NBA finals."

:roll: :roll:

[Graviton]

Don't forget

"Best player to get blocked by a guy half his size"

This is an underrated GOAT thread

Pauk honestly thought this was impressive

[no pun intended]

Who's the leader in most fourth quarters missed since 1985?

Bird would rise to the top of this list/argument if you listed missed triple doubles as a percentage of games played rather than seasons.

pauk - Not sure if you're interested in updating your numbers, but if you are, we have files on Bird and Magic with gamelogs going back to their rookie season (not 100% complete, but pretty fleshed out):

Given the chance, I remind you of my Rick Barry log suggestion.

I've forwarded the suggestion, it seems that Gorba is going with a more ambitious project in the mean time (looks like it'll be incredible when it's fleshed out). Not sure if you saw this section (below the gamelogs):


1946-47 - 1962-63 Game Logs [file will be ready in 2015]
1963-64 - 1970-71 Game Logs [incomplete ; size: 16 MB ; excel 2007 required]
[1970-71 season updated]

1971-72 - 1976-77 Game Logs [file will be ready in 2014]
1977-78 - 1980-81 Game Logs [file will be ready in 2014]
1981-82 - 1984-85 Game Logs [file will be ready in 2015]

But he's putting all of the data we have for every player into these files. Here's the 64-71 doc:

Yes, I had seen the first section, although it's a bit impractical for my taste, but the second one I hadn't and, when you arrange them by name, it becomes the real deal - practically what we've been looking for for decades. :applause:
