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.

I literally had conversations way back in high school and college that were along the lines of “what if you combined Reggie Miller, and Hakeem to make a massive ball hawk down low who also is quick and has dribbles and can pull up from anywhere.” “Damn that would be the greatest player ever no one could stop him!”

Now we have them. Crazy.
