30 pt, 5 assist, 50% FG:

Wilt (twice)
Jordan (5X)
Durant

LeBron (11x) if we adjust his stats to the 60s

No threes, no flopping, no crab walking.

Even more damning, Chamberlain’s selfless and winning ways proved an aberration.
The satisfaction of victory remained less rewarding than the accumulation of statistics. In
1967-1968 the 76ers cruised to the best regular season record, and they should have been
a budding dynasty. But tensions surfaced, as they always did around Chamberlain. For
one, he resolved to lead the NBA in assists—no center had ever done that, and he assumed
it would reinforce his greatness. So he stopped attacking the basket, favored passes to
quick shooters like Walker and Cunningham, and passed up easy shots if a teammate was
open. He had managed to make unselfishness selfish. Lynch also provides a revealing tale
after interviewing journalist George Kiseda. Chafing at Hannum’s lecture after a loss,
Chamberlain interrupted the coach: “I think there are more important things than win-
ning. I think you have to learn how to lose, too” (p. 211). Chamberlain absorbed that
self-imposed lesson once again. In the 1968 playoffs, the 76ers wasted a 3-1 series lead
against the Celtics. Boston then won another title, the first with Russell as player-coach.
The same old story: Russell lifted his team to new heights, Chamberlain faltered when it
mattered most.

Oh, and translate from weak-ass fast-paced era to today and Wilt's numbers would be like 20-12-2 on 45%.

Why would the slower pace drop his FG% by 15 points?

i'm way more impressed with durant than jordan since jordan rarely shot threes and mostly drove to the rim for more than half his career



fg% is a useless stat. its about points per shot or true shooting %

[BlakFrankWhite]

KD had 32-7-6 on 50/40/90 shooting

That God like

I have a better club.

The 2/6 Club:

Exclusively; LeBron's!

Are we including Wilt's 1967 and 1968 seasons where he openly admitted to statpadding his assists ?

Not, actually.

If you're going to make a super lame joke at least be correct.
