Jokic 7
Doncic 2
Scottie 1
Bam 1
Lamelo 1
Embiid 1
Lebron 1
Sabonis 1
Would’ve thought Luka had more, probably has heaps of 9 assist/rebound games
Kyrie takes the load off so he doesn't have to hardy carry as much. Lots of 7 and 8 rebound assist games
Sombor Doubles for the above players: Jokic: 4 Embiid: 2 Sabonis: 2 Luka: 1
Embiids passing has been a very nice improvement in his game this season.
Fully agree, I guess it hasn't been necessary for him to develop his passing while playing alongside Ben Simmons (people may forget he was an incredible playmaker before his downfall) and James Harden (who literally led the league in assists last year).
People forget he had to become a playmaker in 21-22 season when Ben sat out before Harden at the deadline. I think he had a couple triple doubles and assists jumped a bit with Maxey still being so raw.
If jokic were truly a stat padder and tried to turn those sombor doubles to TDs he would become the league leader before he retired. But he's not a stat padder, just a wins padder unfortunately
he's only 88 TDs behind the all-time leader (Westbrook) right now, which is about 3 seasons worth at his current pace. He'll probably become the all-time leader well before he retires.
He's 14 playoff TDs behind Magic for #1, which ... last season he had 10, but I don't think we can count on that pace. Still, I wouldn't be at all surprised if Jokic also takes the all-time lead on that stat in about 3 years. (LeBron is only 2 behind Magic and could plausibly take the lead this postseason, but I don't expect him to put together so many that Jokic would have a hard time catching him.)
Jokic gets 10+ rebounds literally every game so Sombor Double is just him getting 9 assists lol
I feel like it will still take a couple of years for the NBA to realise just how great Joker and the Nuggets are.
Need Vučević and Nurkić to step up to achieve full Yugo domination
Boban disrespect is real
Seeing the gentle giant is always a highlight. He can appear on screen for a brief moment, smiling happily on the bench, and it's always my favourite part of the game.
BOBAAAN! Two lines! Will always be a delight
He tried to kill John Wick though.
Nurk had 19/14/6 tonight
He also had 20/17/8 against the bulls recentlyish
This is actually shocking to me, would have thought there were significantly more.
Im surprised Sengun still doesnt have one
Kid is on a great trajectory. I can see him becoming even better in near future, and he is for sure going to rack them up.
Couple of Sombor Doubles in there, I'm sure he'll have at least 2-3 by the end of the season especially since our SOS has been ridiculous so far
Hopefully in January when we finally play some easier teams he can pick up a couple
Can we please stop giving a shit about triple doubles?
No?
I'm curious why you'd say this. A triple double is truly remarkable. Historically it's only been the very best of the best to be able to achieve the feat, and even in recent memory those that achieve triple doubles are almost always doing so during an incredible performance.
Are you so spoiled by the ridiculous talent level of the league right now that you think achieving one of the most impressive statlines in basketball is overrated?
Euros - 12
Americans - 3
Are the Americans stupid?
just give more assists 💀
LAMELO MENTIONED
LAMEGOAT
