BEST KNOWN FOR:
– Being the first Russell Westbrook
– Somehow having better stats than Ben Simmons as a rookie… but only just, and was also never on a 2K cover
– Averaging a triple double for a season… and not winning the MVP …. but also cumulatively averaging a triple-dub across his first SIX SEASONS
– Being a grumpy old bastard
– Basically being one of the NBA’s biggest civil rights advocates
– Creating free agency
– Creating a super-team and winning a title with Kareem in Milwaukee
DEAD-SET LEDGE STATUS:
Assured!! Mate, The Big O averaged a bloody triple double for an entire season… and actually averaged a triple double total across his first SIX BLOODY SEASONS! Sure, he was a grumpy old prick, but so would you be if you’d gone through all the crap he did. Mate, not only was the Big O one of the greatest NBA players ever, without him, we wouldn’t have had free agency and awesome stuff like Chris Kaman making $86 million in his career.
#ONYA The Big O!
