Around the League: Week 14 1/26-1/31

And despite 2 overtimes Rondo still can't get 10 points for a tripple double Makes me wonder how many double doubles with less than 10 points he already had.

Checked basketball-reference and it's only 8.

"Only" 8? That's a lot. I challenge you to find another player with as many.

ETA: Jason Kidd beats the hell out of Rondo with a whopping 25 double-doubles without points. Mark Eaton ties him with eight.

Cap, I love you. I have never found this before.

[Indy]

So Kidd did it 25 times!

[Cap]

Yup. Since 1983-84, there have been 111 such games, and Kidd has 25 of them. Rondo is tied for second with Mark Eaton at eight. Nobody has recorded a triple-double without points. (Rondo and Ricky Rubio have come close, recording games of eight steals with double digits in rebounding and assists but not points.)

[Ring_Wanted]

I'd trade a lot to get Cousins because I think, despite all the friction he has had with coaches and management, that he's a good teammate that genuinely wants to win and wants to work. I'm not as high on Griffin because I think his game is ultimately too dependent on physicality and I just don't think his game is going to age well.

He makes jumpers now, though. And he still handles the rock, and scores inside, etc... The fucker is gifted.

Btw, Lavine brings the heat

He's got some TMac in him.

Also some Gilbert Arenas & not the hibachi part.

Brian Geltzeiler: In taking to people around the league on who has been made available in trade talks a very surprising name has come up: D’Angelo Russell

Umm, yes please. Booker and Russell back court. How do we make this happen?

[ShelC]

Pass on Russell. He's Evan Turner 2.0.

Also, the Lakers HAVE to be kicking themselves for screwing up that pick.

They passed up on the Zinger?!

[djy2j]

No way. He's legit. Byron Scott just hates rookies. He's got amazing court vision and great (cover your ears) passing skills. He's only like 19 or 20 also. He's a gamer and a hard worker.

How hilarious would it be to trade Knight to them for.... one of their future first round picks!

I can't see that happening.

I like him too. Have since college. He's not in an ideal situation for his development, to put it mildly.

Isaiah Thomas is an official ASE.

He earned it.

Even if we decided IT was not the right fit for us, can you imagine how much better positioned we would be right now if we never traded for Knight?
