Kemba is most certainly an intangibles guy meaning a lot of what he does won't show up in the box score. The ballhawking defense that he put on Lillard last night took the Blazers offense out of sync. Unfortunately we couldn't rebound and defend the paint to close out the game.

First of all I said LIKELY. I didn't say that it would happen without any shadow of a doubt. Second Darrin Collison, Sessions, and even Chris Duhon all have a 20 assist game in their resume. I find it really sad that you guys have wrote Kemba off from ever having that achievement in his career in only his second year in the league. Have some faith in my boy geez.

I don't think for the most part that they lack faith in Kemba. It was just a bold statement. But it's nice to know that all of our fans on this board isn't bitter and have some overt optimism. What good is it to not expect much out of our players? I'll one up you by saying that I expect Biyombo to have a quadruple-double one day.

Umm... you did a little more than one up me. Only four players in history have officially recorded an nba quadrupal double. They are Nate Thurmon, Alvin Robertson, Hakeem Olajuwan, and David Robinson. Many players have had 20 20 games. Once again Ramon has one, and I don't think that he is light years better than Kemba.

The old heads told me back in the day to either use a smiley or post in green. :)

Biyombo is the only player on our roster that I think is capable of a 5x5 game. The assists would be the hardest part of that, haha.

I think I might have to go with Kemba on this

Edit: MKG more likely, with Kemba next likely, and Biyombo least likely of the three.

When is Kemba gonna get 5 blocks? MKG could get the blocks, the steals, the assists, the points, and the rebounds. But the hardest part of a 5x5 is the blocks and steals. I think Biyombo will be more likely to get the blocks and steals than anyone else. It's just a matter of getting lucky with assists.

Kemba though, I doubt will ever get 5 blocks in a game.

Kemba had 3 blocks in a game a couple weeks ago. A guy with his hustle, it's not out of the realm of possibility. The question is how is Biz going to get 5 assist & 5 steals in the same game. That's more unlikely in my opinion

Biz is very active on defense and if his hands keep improving, a 2 block 2 steal season wouldn't be out of the question at all. The steals are fine, it's the assists I'd be worried about. He's lucky to get 5 touches in a game :lol:

i would definitely vote for MKG being most likely to get the 5x5 game.

I wasn't really thinking about MKG when I said that about Biyombo. He does have the chance to get 5 steals, and 5 blocks, so that puts him it in the realm of possibility.

MKG or Taylor could do it. Kemba could do all but the five blocks, Biz would have to stat pad to get 5 assists, and the other team would really not have to give a **** to let Biz get 5 steals.

OT: Biz got a couple 5x5 games in 2k11.

The simulations have proven my hypothesis beyond a shadow of a doubt. 2k11 doesn't lie!

I also scored 168 points in a single game and even let my worthless sidekick Kevin Durant score 10 as well. There you go, 2k11 doesn't lie. I am the GOAT.
