My rant on why the "triple-double mania" of the 2016-2017 season is distasteful.

It is unbelievable that Russ broke the record . We are lucky to watch players like that alive. None of us never ever never ever never ever thought that it was possible until this season.

I don't think anything else needs to be said over the matter.

said over the matter ? ok
 
The triple-double wasn't "a thing" until the days of Magic and Bird.

Oscar Robertson is on record as saying most nights he didn't even realize he had achieved a triple double.

As a NBA League Pass subscriber I've seen Westbrook go for triple doubles on many nights - even at the detriment of his own team.

RB is a great player, perhaps the MVP - but a little perspective is needed when comparing him to Wilt or the Big O.
