Alright, folks, gather ’round, gather ’round! Today, I wanna talk about Russell Westbrook and his triple-doubles this season. That guy’s a beast on the court, and I’ve been keeping track of his stats like a hawk.
So, first things first, I had to figure out where to get the data. I started by hitting up the usual spots, you know, the big sports websites and all that. But it wasn’t enough. I needed more detailed info, something that showed Westbrook’s triple-doubles by season, not just his career totals.
I kept digging, and finally, I found this little gem called StatMuse. Turns out, they have season-level data for triple-doubles going all the way back to the 1950-51 season. I was like a kid in a candy store! I dove straight into the data, and man, was I amazed.
I learned that Westbrook has 215 career triple-doubles. That’s insane! And get this, he even had a triple-double in his rookie season back in 2008-09. The guy’s been a triple-double machine since day one.
Here’s What I Did Step-By-Step:
- Started with the big sports websites.
- Dug deeper to find more detailed info.
- Discovered StatMuse and their season-level data.
- Explored Westbrook’s career stats.
- Focused on his triple-doubles this season.
This season, Westbrook has been on fire. He’s been averaging 21.8 points, and along with the great Nikola Jokic, he’s been making NBA history. I heard some lyrics that kinda reminded me of him, “Look at what you’ve done / Stand still, fallin’ away from me / When it takes so long / Fire’s out.” It’s like he’s always pushing forward, even when things get tough. He’s notched his 182nd career NBA triple-double. And with eight assists against the Phoenix Suns on Friday, he is really something to be watched.
Keeping track of all this data wasn’t easy, but it was worth it. I mean, we’re talking about one of the greatest players in the game, doing what he does best. It’s been a wild ride following Westbrook this season, and I can’t wait to see what he does next.
So, yeah, that’s my story about tracking Westbrook’s triple-doubles this season. Hope you enjoyed it!
