Heat: Lebron: "I get jealous that KD takes 30+ shots a night"

Rondo tbqh.

Love also tbqh

There are players that stat pad assists and rebounds...

Sure, but if you can stat pad a triple double, you're already doing something right.

Love also tbqh

Both Rondo and Love are considered top tier players for a reason.

There's a difference between making one out and chasing one. If you start the game chasing a triple double, you're probably going to fail. If Kobe could post triple doubles you and the entire LA fan base would talk about it non stop because let's be honest: the only reason you about Lebron or KD is because they are getting attention you feel should belong to Kobe. Kobe takes 45+ shots in a game and you celebrate that like it's a Nobel prize. Lebron just mentions he thinks about taking more shots and suddenly he's a stat chaser.

Da rapists obviously has cared more about scoring than assists his whole career. If he wanted too, I'm sure he could shoot 15 times instead of 30 and dish out more assists.

Tbh I like players who just play and play their best basketball. If they're a good player they'll still put up good numbers.

Pretty overrated stat tbh LeBron and Rondo get triple dubs and lose all the time
Kevin Love stat pads 40 and 15 and his team will lose.

It is overrated, but it shows that the player has more facets to his game than most. Great players often lose games, even after posting great numbers. That's because it's a team game. Spur fan doesn't mind telling everyone that Duncan's best game was when he almost got a quad double in a Finals game, or that Robinson got a quad double.

quad doubles are a lot more impressive seeing as you'll need 10 blocks or steals to get it. But I see what you're saying, man.

There's also a difference between a guy like Tim who plays his ass off and at the end of the night, when the smoke clears, he's got a triple double, and someone who might be a few assists shy and defers on the break just to pick up the assists. I think we know who the great players are and don't need those things to tell us. I'd take Rondo, Love and especially James on my team any time.
