By the way, these stunts just to reach a magical "triple-double" really bug me. Remember a few years ago when a coach (I think it was for Detroit or Atlanta) pulled his team off the court when it became clear that Orlando was setting up an inbounds play with about 5 seconds left simply so a Magic player could get the assist he needed for the triple double. If you can't get it legitimately, what's the point of having it? (Are you listening Michael Strahan?)

I believe it was doug Collins who pulled his team off... it's the same sort of thing UConn did a few years back for the sales kid who had the torn ACL...kinda puts a stink on those records...
