    Calvin knew it was a matter of time.
    He seemed genuinely happy for James.
    I wonder how long the franchise record (and highest scoring trip dub) will stand.

    40 years is a darn good run tho
    (check out the technical foul on the Nets for the zone defense)

    Murphy holds some records that will never be touched.

    There were no three point shots when Calvin made those baskets, which is even more remarkable.

    Zone defense was illegal until the 90s... But that crowd size... G League games have higher attendance

    Major credit to Murphy because if you asked me before the Magic game who holds the Rockets single game record I would not have known and would have guessed Olajuwon. So the fact that Murphy was able to make 57 stand during Dream's run and some of the crazy numbers he put up during that time is impressive.

    How long till Harden breaks his own record is what I want to know?
