He arguably has 7 out of the top 25 games this year. Actually, he's got 7 out of the top 18. http://espn.go.com/nba/gameleaders

Including the top 3. Ridiculous.

What's more ridiculous is that a rookie is leading the league in single game points this year. I know we all thought it was big then, I'm not sure anyone expected that to be the highest scoring game of the year. Congrats to Jennings--I suppose it could still be beat, but I doubt it.

I think 55 is the highest because we're seeing a bigger focus on team ball honestly.

LeBrons top performances are SICK. If they meet Boston he may average 30/10/10 :)

I wouldn't be surprised, he's going to be fired up. Coaches are literally pulling their hair out worrying about this guy in the playoffs.

While it might not be a "true stat", ESPN showed their formula for best performance so its not an opinion either.

LBJ is the only player on that list of the top 25 to have more than 1. He has 7 of the top 25.

Actually there is, whether you believe in the formula or not is one thing but those performances are ranked by a stat.

Regardless, it was mentioned in the first post which I'm assuming is what this discussion is based on. Because if it's not he does lead the league in more than a few individual stats.

My comment was only geared towards the asinine comment about Kobe.

So, to clarify, formulas are okay if they back up SQ. If not, they're no good.

When did I take a stance on it?

I simply said there is a stat.

OSU huh?
