C'mon, let's not sell Hakeem short! He actually got a quad double. 18p 16r 11b 10a And he went 5x5 6 times (I believe Kirilenko is 2nd with 3 times, and only 5 other players have ever achieved the feat, once each).

They are right, at least from what I can tell Dream never met that constellation of numbers. But lets just say games like that were fairly regular back in dreams prime. All of these games are from one season. 12/17/89- 32 Pts, 25 Reb, 10 Blks, 2 Ast 3/3/90- 29 Pts, 18 Reb, 11 Blks, 9 Ast, 5 Stls 2/19/90- 32 Pts, 17 Reb, 9 Blks, 1 Ast 11/11/89- 24 Pts, 21 Reb, 12 Blks, 2 Ast, 5 Stls 3/29/90- 18 Pts, 16 Reb, 11 Blks, 10 Ast 3/6/90- 27 Pts, 14 Reb, 8 Blks, 3 Ast
If you count TOs then Russell Westbrook could average a triple double and get quadruple doubles almost every 5 games.
exactly, problems with stats nowadays. Lets add a minimum TO requirement too ...or minutes played in order to make a new unique never been done before. Regardless VERY IMPRESSIVE.
This was my first Rockets related memory. I remember the assist was the last thing needed. Holy crap, it's on youtube. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/F3Kv_-RJj7g" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
This really is a pet peeve of mine. They just pick some random numbers an say nobody else had these stats. I think I even saw one time (I think it was with Rubio or something) that they showed his stats (points rebound assists steals blocks and FG% or something) and had writen next to it "nobody else is averaging these numbers". No ofcourse nobody else is averaging the exact same numbers...... That being said that is one impressive stat line. He really is an amazing player, If he learns to create his own shot he will be the MVP at some point.
Well, only one of those is a quadruple and the others are triple doubles that are not anyhow close to a quadruple. Don't see why you compare a regular triple double with 2 ast or 3stl to a near quadruple that Davis posted and then say "games like that were fairly regular". And to the guys saying the "not in 30 seasons" thing is misleading and cherry picked, please show me how many near quadruples you can find. AND with 30+ points...that stat line is insane for the modern NBA era.
