Those talking up Lebron's streak are forgetful
Decent article about how quickly we forget past greats. There's been a lot of talk of Lebron's streak of six 30+ point games at 60+% from the field, some describing it as possibly the greatest streak seen. Magic Johnson, I think, was one of them.
The article mentions Jordan having 10 triple doubles in 11 games (the non-TD was a 40 point game that was three rebounds off a TD!), some of Wilt's streaks and of course Oscar Robertson *averaging* a triple double for a season. It also mentions Magic having double digit assists in every game of a long 19-game, championship post-season, something Earvin himself had forgotten about. The next post-season, he did it in 13 of 14 games, with nine assists in that other game!
That triple double streak of Jordan's? The game before, he had 34 points and 17 assists!
