Does anyone feel like they've gotten numb to outrageous stats? (alien.top)

I feel like Jokic, Giannas, and Luka have destroyed stats for me. Getting 36/16/9 is something I don't even bat and eye at, I just go oh, they had a good game. NOT EVEN A GREAT GAME. Just a good game lmao. I remember a time that wasn't too long ago, I'm talking like 2015 where 25/6/6 was a pretty insane stat that people were like damn. I really feel like stats stopped becoming so shocking when Harden and Russ were just getting 30 point triple doubles every night and Russ legit averaged a triple double for like 3 seasons or whatever. Before that nobody had averaged a triple double since Oscar Robertson in 1961!

Does anyone else feel this way? I don't even know what is good anymore honestly or when I should be impressed.

40 points has fallen pretty flat for me, personally. Even when Lavine put up 50 against the Pistons I was like "oh cool" but it didn't blow me away. Something like 20 rebounds or 15 assists or 8 blocks is where I get interested.
