Bill Walton...

 

 

He was the first I thought of and he did indeed pull it off.

Total stud. I wish his career would not have been hampered with his foot injuries. He may have won as many titles as Magic, Kobe and MJ if he could have stayed healthy.

This is a hard one, the rebounds really makes me think of 4's and 5's. Bill Russell would be a canidate.

You are reading my mind. I was thinking him and just looked him up. He did it twice, in 64-65 and 66-67. He averaged over 24 rebounds per game a couple of times and over 22 rebounds per game for his career - I know the game was different then but that is sick...

So we got Wilt and Bird as correct answers? Any confirmation on Oscar? I just assumed he was one.

 

Oscar did it (easily I may add) in 61-62. I know now that Walton, Bird, Oscar, Wilt and Russell have done it. Not sure who the not well known guy is as these guys are all ALL TIME GREATS. For some reason Jack Sikma came into my mind - looked him up - had the points and rebounds but only averaged 4.0 assists in his biggest assist year.

My guess as well.

Just looked up Charles - he did it in 92-93 according to basketball reference.com - that is six that I know of now of...done looking for the night:)

Okay since I screwed the question up to begin with trying to edit it (sorry about that) here is the answer.

 

The question should have read the only centers in NBA history to average at least 12 points, 11 rebs and 5 assist in a season.

 

I think someone has answered them all in the thread.

 

Walton

Russell

Wilt

Jabbar

and of course you know and love him Joakim Noah

Just kidding...I actually enjoyed it.

Well I did correct it in post 19 last night.........but it would be interesting to know the total number of players no doubt. Lots of guys you think would have done it have not.

Noah is the one we would never have gotten.

He'll never make it in the NBA.
