There's only 5 times in modern NBA playoff game a player had a 37+ pts triple double

[iamgine]

And Lebron had 4 of them.

Top 5 what?

Missed shots in a series?

[DaSeba5]

Cool stat, but 37 seems like an arbitrary number.

Kobe has than on lock probably.

[Magic 32]

Kobe has than on lock probably.

I don't think so.

Lebron is on pace for 21.5 missed shots per game.

If this goes 7 he could end up with 150 missed shots.

Has never happened before.

Do you understand why people are calling it a Kobe like performance now though?

[SwishSquared]

Cool stat, but 37 seems like an arbitrary number.Agreed, that's such a weird number. It's a cool statline, but seems to be chosen to prop up LBJ's greatness lol. He was phenomenal tonight, shooting % notwithstanding.

Top 5 what?

Missed shots in a series?If LBJ wants to keep chasing history, I guess he's gotta start somewhere to catch Kobe in missed FGs All-Time.

Is it just me, or is this basically how everybody wanted Westbrook to play in the first round had OKC made the playoffs? Crazy counting stats, low shooting %s, and playing to point of running on total fumes. LBJ's playing inefficiently, but he's still in control of the action when he's on the floor. Shows a different side of him I guess. He's got nobody to answer to in terms of sharing the ball now, so he's doing it the best he can on his own terms.

I feel like people have been wanting to see LBJ drag a cast of role players to great heights on a big stage. Well, I guess we've reached that point I suppose.

Didn't expect this interesting of a start to the Finals, but I'm glad it's been entertaining, if ugly :rockon:

[J Shuttlesworth]

In the finals, it's 2 guys, LeBron and Worthy. Worthy was a 36 pt triple double, but they are the only two guys to have a 35+ pt triple double in the finals.

[J Shuttlesworth]

He shot 18 free throws. Let that sink in.
Attack mode. How does it work?

[Magic 32]

Do you understand why people are calling it a Kobe like performance now though?

Mid-2000's regular season Kobe maybe.

Not in the playoff. Surely not.

[J Shuttlesworth]

Here are the 35 pt triple doubles:

150 missed shots and Cavs will still win. Nope, not a weak era at all....

Kobe NEVER had a playoff triple double, so I can't see how it's Kobe-like.

[Magic 32]

Kobe played in a team oriented system.

Do you prefer 50+ iso's every game with these stats?

Is it good basketball?

Kobe has most missed shots in history of basketball on lock :lebronamazed:
Only finals mvp never to shoot 50%fg in the series on lock :lebronamazed:
Mr 6/24 in finals game 7's on lock :lebronamazed:
Biggest blowout in finals title clinching game on lock :lebronamazed:

Lebron will take care of the > 40 point finals games and the 37 point triple doubles for you :banana:

[Dave3]

Not playoff Kobe? Not playoff Kobe shot shot 40% for an entire finals? It's hilarious watching you all of a sudden care about missed shots and FG% though.

Hell, his iconic fMVP he shot 12/27 per game for a 43% average.

[Sarcastic]

The day after Wilt retired.

After introduction of 3 pt line usually. Or past 35 years.

Shameless really.

No. Am calling out hypocrites.

I did not start the fg% obsession that Lebron stans have used against Kobe for 10 years.

Lebron stans have now made the biggest flip flop in the history of the forum, and are now the scum of the earth.

Except you're doing the exact same thing. You defended Kobe having poor shooting games for years, and now all of a sudden it's inexcusable when LeBron does it. You're the opposite side of the exact same coin.

Nope :no: . I'm mostly kidding.

And even if i weren't, there is a big difference between rooting for someone to win/succeed as opposed to rooting for an individual to fail.

Defending a great player against slimy attackers is being a stan?

Did not know that.

Fans are fans.

Stans are hypocrites.

They have lost all credibility and integrity. I point it out.

He will need to do it the rest of the series / whether the Cav's win or lose.

Did Kobe ever do it in a game :confusedshrug:

[aj1987]

Has been done only once since 1985. Barkley did it with 45/15/10/2/2 on 16/22 and 11/11 from the FT line. :applause:

Other arbitrary triple doubles:

20 point TD's - 67 times (LeBron has 11 of them and his teams are 10-1)
25 point TD's - 37 times (LeBron has 10 of them and his teams are 9-1)
30 point TD's - 19 times (LeBron has 7 of them and his teams are 7-0)
35 point TD's - 7 times (LeBron has 4 of them and his teams are 4-0)

Magic 32 is melting down HARD. I can see him doing something stupid IF LeBron wins (not likely) the Finals.
