Could Lebron average a triple double in the Dleague? Yes. Could he do it in the NBA? Yes.

If Lebron is trying solely to go for a triple double average in either league, I'm sure he could do it. Whether or not his team would win is a different question.

Example: Lebron is playing in a game. He scores his 10 pts midway through the second quarter. He has 2 and a half more quarters to get to 10 assists. I'm sure a lot of you play video games and try to do the same thing over a season in whichever game you play.

LeBron could average 10 pts, 10 reb, 10 ast if he wanted to on the Cavs, EASILY.

At first, i thought with ease. but then i thought, would his coach even let him pass. i mean think about it this way. your owner of D-league team X. you just sign Lebron james. this is a league dominated by nobodies. you are struggling to get fans. so what do you do. have Lebron just score as much as he can and try and build a fan base. or do you have him pass and try and get his teammates involved. I think the financial decision is obvious

24.0 ppg, 8.1 rpg, 6.6 apg.

Is Lebron better than Julius Hodge?

Its funny that we are having this debate because the guy almost avgs a trip-doub in the NBA. Sad thing is that isnt even the funny part. People say that D-leaguers are no good and thats funny. They are better than us and better than most D1 players and those who dont want to go overseas are better than some europeans. So with that said and the passer that Lebron is, I think he easily makes his teamates better or at least good enough to score when he puts them in scoring position. Triple teams and cutting and he has trip doub by half.

Randy Livingston averages 10.7 APG. And 15.6 points. Can LeBron average 10 rebounds? Hell yes.

LeBron, in the D-league, could average 40, 10, 10, and it wouldn't take him 40 minutes a night to do it. The talent in the D-league is a step below elite NCAA teams, and its evident if you ever watch it.

HAHA Lebron James would average a triple double on the warriors. I would seriously have this guy as the PG.

ALOT of NBA players would average triple doubles and dominate the DLeague

Easily.

He'll score no problem, and the rebounding 'standard' is worse in the D-League than it is in the NBA.

And his team-mates would get wide-open shots too.

AND the scorelines are in the 120-110 ilk and not the 90-80 ilk we see in the NBA

If "Randy Livingston" can average 10.7 assists per game in the NBDL, I see no reason why LBJ could not.
