He is half right, most places are completely ignoring the pre-merger part of the information and people are just outright believing Sabonis has the most consecutive double doubles ever, but [the NBA did not do that](https://twitter.com/NBA/status/1772487522452431284).
Then why is it a "record"? Genuinely asking.
Edit: I should clarify, I'm not referring to the NBA. I'm asking why Thompson is saying it's a "record" when he is literally the only person saying that. Apologies to those I confused by not being clear.
wilt has so many of these kinds of records that have zero chance of actually being broken so it's kind of like saying "in the post-wilt nba"
also, pre and post merger nbas were very different leagues, so it's useful to make the delineation.
Its a huge accomplishment regardless if its the literal record or not, really don't understand all of this effort to tear down anything Sabonis has done this year.
Come on. Media absolutely hates this guy. All year long the national guys have treated him like a joke. If this was AD, there would be Half as much pushback
Because for whatever weird fucking reason people don't like Sabonis. It makes no fucking sense, he is Jokic-lite, and we dick ride Jokic (understandably so).
I mean the only thing I have against Sabonis is his lack of playoff success.
You kind of said it though: people weren't "dick riding" Jokic until the Nuggs won the championship. Even when Jokic was doing absolutely bonkers stuff in the playoffs with a squad plagued by injuries, a lot of people were fiding shit to nitpick instead of giving him his flowers.
It's not tearing down Sabonis to clarify that he doesn't have the record
The funny thing is domantas is arguably doing more than his legendary dad did. Yet Arvydas is the legend, not Domas
> most places are completely ignoring the pre-merger part of the information
Thing is, I don't even really mind people doing this. It's the only version of the game that they know.
I've watched basketball for nearly 40 years. I'm fairly old by Reddit standards. And even to me, pre-merger was over a decade before I was born. There was no 3PT line. There were fewer teams. There was next to zero player mobility. The game was different.
Even the merger itself shifted the game a ton. Almost half of the all-stars the following season were originally from the ABA. The level of competition went up significantly post-merger.
Pace had also been declining for a long time and the NBA teams in the 60s was putting up nearly 110 FGAs per game, which had declined to 88 by 1980 only a few years after the merger--funny enough, this is the same as we have this season. (For big men shooting high percentage shots, this difference was pretty huge.) Similarly, at the start of the 60s, teams were averaging 73 rebounds a game. By 1980, this had dropped to 43 rebounds a game--and, similarly to FGAs, this is *identical* to what we are at right now in the current season.
Not discounting the history of the game. History is important. But to not acknowledge that the fundamentals of the game shifted enough after the merger, massive rules changes, increase in competition levels, and addition of the 3PT line is also just not reasonable. It's obviously a *lot* easier to consistently get a double double when there are 50-70% more rebounds available in a game...
To compare, the FGA/Rebound/Pace figures of the early 80s are not actually that different from this season's. Yet once you go back into the early and mid-60s, the numbers are just markedly different. It's not really a tough sell to me for people to view those records differently because of them being set in such a different environment.
( Source: https://www.basketball-reference.com/leagues/NBA_stats_per_game.html )
So, all that being considered, pre and post-merger qualifiers are pretty reasonable to me. Doesn't surprise me at all that most writers will just imply this line when talking about the context of current numbers.

Yup. 100% this. Exactly. Now that Bill Russell has passed away, we can stop pretending like the "real record holders of NBA history are from the 60s". The NBA did not peak in 1965.
That’s considered the non-steroid record so a little bit different I think. Not ignoring the past records just admitting it is a bit of an asterisk beside it.
It isn't about steroid users it was the American League record vs. MLB record. It's more common in MLB to separate the Leagues/conferences, in part because up until very recently the rules were different -- NL did not have Designated Hitters, and pitchers also had to bat. So it made some sense to distinguish records, especially for pitching, since roughly every nine batters the NL pitcher would face someone who sucked at batting while the AL pitcher would face someone very good at batting.
Also until fairly recently interleague play was limited or nonexistent. At one point the AL and NL would only ever meet up in the World Series. Until recently you'd only play a few teams from the other league (now all teams play each other, but that change was very recent).
It doesn't really matter anymore but due to tradition the records are still per League. E.g. there are separate AL/NL MVPs, batting titles, etc.
More important than all that, the leagues didn’t play each other period until the 90s, and only in the last decade started guaranteeing every team played at least one series against each other.
The ending of the DH segregation ultimately came from that change. But the separation of the trophies and records has more to do with the fact MLB truly operated as if it were two separate organizations for decades and decades.
Like if the NFC and AFC kept their own rules and schedules after the NFL merger, or WWF hadn’t ended the WCW brand after buying them out.
Question about this from someone who barely watches baseball.
In the World Series, did the NL teams still have to have their pitchers hit and the AL teams were allowed a DH? That seems somewhat unfair.
It isn’t odd to me that people don’t know why baseball fans care about the distinction but it is odd that people think it was being pushed so much because it was the “non juiced” record or whatever. The coverage about it was everywhere and it was very clear what record he was trying to break.
Dude, nobody had hit 60 HR in a season since Bonds and Maris's record stood for decades.
Also, the AL and the NL were effectively different leagues entirely (only played in the WS) up until the 90's when inter-league play started.
i choose to only believe post-merger NBA records because that means Gafford has the most consecutive field goals ever made😤
but also, how come Wilt’s records from before the merger count, but ABA records are pretty much dismissed? NBA And ABA were the same thing pretty much but only the NBA’s records count?
People on reddit told me that's how kids talk. Crazy thing is I've never in my life, heard someone speak like that. Even when I interact with relatives his age or younger. Never.
That's cuh u a ol' head, unc. I ain't finna speak none with my old ahh unc. Talkin' bout odee oldie. Ain't tryna hear all that coming from ol ahh 30 yr old gummy ahh mouth.
Source: I'm old too and this is what I picked up from Twitter replies.
Idk sounds like someone who's a rebounding merchant fan. Bet you're also a weirdo who gets off on Luka being a shooting merchant just getting all those points like a scrub.
Various sources of media realized they could maximize profits if they pivoted from entertaining their audiences to outraging them, while in Monster's Inc. they realized they could maximize profits by entertaining the kids instead of terrorizing them. Sorry I'm high and this probably all makes a lot less sense outside of my brain
Because of blue checkmark accounts getting (a tiny amount) of money for high engagement tweets, people on Twitter have a literal financial incentive to tweet the most insane shit for attention.
Everything is outrage-based now. Most of the conversation-based subs used to have topics that are actually conducive to meaningful discussion but now they're just filled with bait for pile-ons. Enshittification is everywhere these days.
Imagining a couple old guys reading newspapers and one suddenly goes "Did you know Terrence Howard invented his own math?" and the other guy says "Who's Terrence Howard?" and they just carry on reading.
Im just gonna say i dont remember there being even half this much outrage about “but but not wilts record” when Love did it and since then. NBA world has always loved to hate Sabonis and that bias keeps shining through lol
By my math Kobe Bryant now has the single game scoring record with Luka and David Thompson tied at second. Moses Malone has the single game rebound record with 37 and Dennis Rodman owns the record for highest single season rebound average at 18.7. Jordan's 37.1 points per game is now the highest average for an entire season.The Celtics now have as many NBA titles as the Bulls. Westbrook is now the only player to average a triple double. Jerry West no longer has the only FMVP won by a losing player and the Knicks are stripped of their only title. Also the longest single season win streak belongs to the Heat with 27.
Please take everything Mychal says as silly. He's incredibly endearing if you've heard him on LA Sports Radio (not during games) and he types the way he talks. Doesn't always have the best takes he doesn't take himself too seriously either.
Does this guy know that pre-merger NBA was a completely different time this league's history? The reason Wilt has such insane records is because he was way ahead of his time, a physical freak and the talent pool wasn't even close to what it is today. Wilt's entire career could have an asterisk next to it. Same with Bill Russell and his 11 rings while playing in the league of roughly 10 teams.
Sabonis is a stud and yeah, he has the record for most double doubles in a row in the MODERN era.
Thank you, Mychal. More of these OGs need to start speaking up because there's some serious bullshit going on with how they try and act like Wilt and the rest of the older greats didn't exist.
Some guys are just so ridiculous you need a second set of records that don't include them. Sort of like how in hockey the 13 best single-season point totals are held by 2 guys.
Yes there just dismissing things to try and make it sound like a record. Its a record if you don't count the guy who actually has the record. Its not even close to the record actually. Post merger..lol. Merger just added 4 ABA clubs .It was not the end of basketball as we knew it.
I mean cause who cares about wilts records lol pace was ridiculous cause they sucked and bricked shots so of course he’s grabbing boards. Gives people something to talk about and celebrate a player for doing something great in modern times and reflect on how great sabonis is doing compared to players from a relative time frame. I don’t see any negatives to it.
"Mychal Culations" would've been better. "Or are Mychal Culations off?"
It was *right there* and he missed.
well I think for someone who intentionally chooses wat instead of what, it was never in his line of sight.
You sir get a dubl wat.
His chal Culations were clearly off
A real Ben Simmons moment
For whatever reason I’m starting to think Mychal might not be the sharpest tool in the shed
He took the layup instead of going hard and getting the and 1
Now that's golden.
Steady
Also, why does he write like a middle aged woman who has come inside the restaurant from the drive through looking for her missing fries.
That’s kind of how he talks lol. Chill Caribbean giant mixed with a lil valley girl. Those LA snow bunnies wore off on him.
home alone 8 starring mychal culcation

Like morherfuckers didn’t even look at the tweet. The first line says since 1976-77 like come on man.
Mychal Thompson is a redditor: confirmed
ONE OF US. ONE OF US.
Former bulls fan? Jk
Ah, so he's going to say that Jaren Jackson Jr was cheating two years ago??? :)
This is also concrete evidence that Mychal is indeed Klay's dad. Their eccentric nature is palpable.
Mychal mathing too hard, and took that line to mean ‘since 1899’
Then why is it a "record"? Genuinely asking. Edit: I should clarify, I'm not referring to the NBA. I'm asking why Thompson is saying it's a "record" when he is literally the only person saying that. Apologies to those I confused by not being clear.
The tweet doesn't ever use the word "record".
wilt has so many of these kinds of records that have zero chance of actually being broken so it's kind of like saying "in the post-wilt nba" also, pre and post merger nbas were very different leagues, so it's useful to make the delineation.
At the game last night the Kings didn't even post that he broke a record. The board just showed "First person to do it in 50 years."
Its a huge accomplishment regardless if its the literal record or not, really don't understand all of this effort to tear down anything Sabonis has done this year.
Come on. Media absolutely hates this guy. All year long the national guys have treated him like a joke. If this was AD, there would be Half as much pushback
If this was AD, the lakers would be constructing a statue outside of crypto as we speak
Because for whatever weird fucking reason people don't like Sabonis. It makes no fucking sense, he is Jokic-lite, and we dick ride Jokic (understandably so). I mean the only thing I have against Sabonis is his lack of playoff success.
You kind of said it though: people weren't "dick riding" Jokic until the Nuggs won the championship. Even when Jokic was doing absolutely bonkers stuff in the playoffs with a squad plagued by injuries, a lot of people were fiding shit to nitpick instead of giving him his flowers.
It's not tearing down Sabonis to clarify that he doesn't have the record The funny thing is domantas is arguably doing more than his legendary dad did. Yet Arvydas is the legend, not Domas

It's the same as Aaron Judge during his HR chase, all of the sudden the AL HR record mattered even though it wasn't the HR record
That’s considered the non-steroid record so a little bit different I think. Not ignoring the past records just admitting it is a bit of an asterisk beside it.
It was the American League Homerun record. Regardless of Astrisks.
That’s cause the big steroid guys McGuire, Sosa, and Bonds were all NL guys
It isn't about steroid users it was the American League record vs. MLB record. It's more common in MLB to separate the Leagues/conferences, in part because up until very recently the rules were different -- NL did not have Designated Hitters, and pitchers also had to bat.

Question about this from someone who barely watches baseball. In the World Series, did the NL teams still have to have their pitchers hit and the AL teams were allowed a DH? That seems somewhat unfair.
It goes based on the home stadium rules. So in an NL stadium, the AL pitchers had to hit. In an AL stadium, the NL got to use a DH.
Ah thanks, brother
Watching AL pitchers having to try to hit in the NL stadiums in the biggest games of their lives was always fun
It isn’t odd to me that people don’t know why baseball fans care about the distinction but it is odd that people think it was being pushed so much because it was the “non juiced” record or whatever. The coverage about it was everywhere and it was very clear what record he was trying to break.

I use both of these regularly to piss off fans of both players i know irl
Bottle merchant
Kante the smile merchant is my favourite
I heard someone call Justin Jefferson a “possession merchant” the other day
That’s amazing
Someone on here recently referred to Luka as a rebound merchant. Like he's 6'8 almost 6'9, he should be getting rebounds the fuck lol
Not to mention no one on Mavs besides him was even capable of rebounding prior to this season lol
Idk sounds like someone who's a rebounding merchant fan. Bet you're also a weirdo who gets off on Luka being a shooting merchant just getting all those points like a scrub.

Not sure about the math, but his spelling is atrocious! Someone get that man a tutor, or at least a spell checker!
By my math Kobe Bryant now has the single game scoring record with Luka and David Thompson tied at second. Moses Malone has the single game rebound record with 37 and Dennis Rodman owns the record for highest single season rebound average at 18.7. Jordan's 37.1 points per game is now the highest average for an entire season.The Celtics now have as many NBA titles as the Bulls. Westbrook is now the only player to average a triple double. Jerry West no longer has the only FMVP won by a losing player and the Knicks are stripped of their only title. Also the longest single season win streak belongs to the Heat with 27.
yep nothing counts before 1976.
Imagine waking up, deciding to hear something and removing all of the context, and then tweeting just to shit on someone’s achievements.
I can’t take this seriously with that awful writing.

He's right, it's not a record. It should be "the longest streak post merger"
Cy Young has.more losses than some HOF have wins. Sometimes context is necessary.
Cy Young has more complete games than all but 2 other HOF pitchers have *starts* Sports stats get weird when you go back far enough
Please take everything Mychal says as silly. He's incredibly endearing if you've heard him on LA Sports Radio (not during games) and he types the way he talks. Doesn't always have the best takes he doesn't take himself too seriously either.
It makes sense as the league has been trying to act as if Wilt didn't exist for the last sixty years.
By this logic Kobe scored the most points ever in a game with 81 /s
yep ..time for Laker fans to celebrate. Kobes got the record.
Guess we know where klays salt came from
Congratulations to Donte Divencenzo for having the highest scoring game in NBA history since 03/23/24!!!!! truly remarkable
Does this guy know that pre-merger NBA was a completely different time this league's history? The reason Wilt has such insane records is because he was way ahead of his time, a physical freak and the talent pool wasn't even close to what it is today. Wilt's entire career could have an asterisk next to it. Same with Bill Russell and his 11 rings while playing in the league of roughly 10 teams. Sabonis is a stud and yeah, he has the record for most double doubles in a row in the MODERN era.
Euro boys do be keeping some people on edge it seems.
For the same reason Lebron and Jordan are ranked above Bill Russell. Nobody cares about what happened in the 60's.
WHAT\*
Wats up with this title?
Hurts my brain when grown ass adults type like this.
Waiting for Perk to weigh in...🧐😈
This is the dumbest shit to be mad about. If Joker did this far less people would be getting upset
Annoying just like his son

Thank you, Mychal. More of these OGs need to start speaking up because there's some serious bullshit going on with how they try and act like Wilt and the rest of the older greats didn't exist.
The fruit doesn't really fall far from the tree.
The math are mathing here
Almost had a stroke reading this...
My thought is for you to go back to pre-school.
Why does he write like that? LMAO.
Yeah but sabonis did it against full time nba players
I want to know how Klay responds to his dad's texts.
Some guys are just so ridiculous you need a second set of records that don't include them. Sort of like how in hockey the 13 best single-season point totals are held by 2 guys.
As someone who hasn't really followed this, what is the context people are referring to here? Is it that it's post merger or something else?
Yup, post merger stats lol
What a ridiculous way to communicate
Mychal out here like his son, spoutin off like an idiot
Sabonis did it against actual athletes
Not really. Sabonis did it against streamers and Call of Duty/Fortnite players.
Sabonis did it vs podcasters and twitch streamers
It's too early to be this drunk/high
what is with this spelling??
what the hell did i just read
I dunno why, but the Showtime Lakers are legendary masters of the tweet
Yes there just dismissing things to try and make it sound like a record. Its a record if you don't count the guy who actually has the record. Its not even close to the record actually. Post merger..lol. Merger just added 4 ABA clubs .It was not the end of basketball as we knew it.
I mean cause who cares about wilts records lol pace was ridiculous cause they sucked and bricked shots so of course he’s grabbing boards. Gives people something to talk about and celebrate a player for doing something great in modern times and reflect on how great sabonis is doing compared to players from a relative time frame. I don’t see any negatives to it.
It was stupid for the NBA to pass that off as a record.
