Currently the game is in overtime and he has 27 points, 12 assists and 9 steals. Anyone know how many triple doubles there have been in NBA history that had steals in double figures? I found a stat that says 15 up to and including the 94-95 season.
Anyhow. Im calling it. Wall is ROY.

And before you all say "of course Wall is ROY", Blake Griffin, Derrick Favours and Cousins are all legit contenders this year.

My pick is still Griffin! Once Arenas gets back I think you will see Walls take a back seat.

Alvin Robertson achieved this in his quadruple-double.
Points, assists, blocks
This has happened twice in the last 22 NBA seasons, and at least three times in NBA history; all known occasions are in fact quadruple-doubles.

Brad, would they really run Arenas ahead of him when he's their future? Averaging 21 and 9, and got that monster line today with a slight ankle injury.
John Wall is the youngest player in the last 25 seasons to post at least 25 points, 10 assists and 8 steals in a game.

Busy day in the office DB???
Outstanding line from Wall... Only one minor thing, 8 turnovers, but with a line like that and a win in the bag, who cares.
Alvin Robertson... filthy disgusting grub of a human..
i had a tug over john wall last night, he is my roy tip.

Unless they don't play Arena's I don't see how he won't. Arenas has such a big personality and will simply takeover. He will jack up at least 20 shots a game, so Walls figures will drop a bit. His assists may go up though, but his points I think will drop.

No worries kad.
Ease up TR ; )
Just googled it, wasn't too hard to find, and I wanted to know the answer.
Griffen is still my pick FWIW.

Griffin's my pick as well.... It wouldn't surprise me to see a joint ROY. I think the last time that happened was Kidd and Hill.

I think you are correct TR.
That was a bit of a farce from memory as well.
No Deal!!

Francis & Brand were the last joint ROY in 1999...definately could go that way this year.
