Take on the triple double

IceCube made it so every white kid felt like he could screw around and
get one while looking at the Goodyear blimp, Jason Kidd and Rondo seem
like they could do it any night of the week, the Big O averaged one
for an entire NBA season and even my buddy Big nose O has scored a
plethera of triple-doubles in his day if you count a finger in his
five hole that is
But what has always bothered us about this stat in basketball is that
We'e felt the points are too easy to come by. 10 points, 10 dimes
and 10 boards gets you to this coveted achievement but I think
everybody would agree that the points are much easier to get to
because it only involves making 4 or 5 field goals
To truly make this a meaningful stat, we recommend 10 field goals as
the minimum or at least 10 shots (including foul shots). You can
call it the TORiple Double
