Why is the media creating these fake ''records''?

[mr.big35]

Like Lebron is the first player to score 30 points when it is 20 degrees while wearing black socks and head bands.

Here's a better question:

Why didn't you make this thread when ESPN was creating odd criteria to authenticate a LeBron streak or record the last two seasons?

Seriously, I'm curious to know. Because from an objective observer, you and the LeBron stanhood are whining like petulant toddlers now that LeBron isn't the toast of the town.

Grow up.

OP was asking for it being a LeBron stan. It's almost like he wanted to get called out on his double standard.

What s up with this 40 streak games 25+ pts record? Humm.... Wilt scored 50 ppg for the whole season.

Another fake and impressive record is Jordan going 6 for 6 in the finals. Humm....Russell went 11 for 11 if you dont count the year he got injured.

It's not a record. 40 is the 3rd longest streak. Still very impressive.

MJ has the first, who's the other?

[fpliii]

MJ has the first, who's the other?

Wilt 10/19/61-12/14/62 (106 games)
Oscar 12/25/63-10/17/64 (47 games)
MJ 12/16/86-3/11/87 (40 games)
MJ 3/7/88-12/6/88 (40 games)
Durant 1/7/14-present (39 games)

[Im Still Ballin]

All the proof you need for Wilt's numbers.

You so mad.

Oh, and these fake records started with Lebron.

"Lebron James is the first player to score 25 point on the first Tuesday in January on a West Coast trip."

[livinglegend]

don't see you complaining about the numerous contrived arbitrary stats they make up for Lebron all the time

Like Lebron is the first player to score 30 points when it is 20 degrees while wearing black socks and head bands.

So 40 straight games of 25+ scoring is bullshit,
but 5 games of 27+ points, 7 ast, 6 reb, over 60%fg, 2 headbands is a legitimate record?

Where did I mention Lebron in this thread?

Y'all are hilarious with the gifs doe

Russell lost in the 58 finals pretty sure he was hurt but he was 11/12 in the finals. Hondo was 8-0 doe

Interesting...

Russell injured his ankle in game three of that series (and with the series tied 1-1.) Boston did go on to lose that game, 111-108, but they actually outscored the Hawks without Russell.

Then, without Russell in game four, they easily beat the Hawks, 109-98.

They were without Russell again in game five... a 102-100 loss.

And Russell returned for game six, but only played in the first half. Boston again outscored the Hawks without Russell, but they lost that deciding game by a 110-109 margin.

Grow up.

lebrons 12 game streak of at least 26points 6.3rebounds 7.2assists while shooting 47.8% with a schedule following a at home, home, home on the road, on the road, home, home and at least 85% attendance is unparelled bar none. not even close. lettuce be real tea.

[BlackVVaves]

Because other people did it.

Or because you typically flap to any semblance of LeBron praise

I just find it comical that the same LeBron stans that are complaining about the attention KD is garnering are the same posters that flooded ISH with the identical subjective circle jerk over LeBron the last few seasons.
