I've done the math, and I'm pretty certain, now hear me out, it's just one.

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?

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.

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).

The fact that KD has been even a positive defender with his offensive skillset is kinda nutty. But he has actually been very good, which elevates him to that next level of generational talent. Such a blessing to be able to watch him play at this level in 2023.

Mate I think the entire team is giving up historical numbers to the opposing side. Nobody on that pacers squad is playing defense, and I am right here for it baby.
