The double-double is overrated in BASKETBALL!
And, the double-double doesn't show what you claim in large measure. That's what the triple-double shows, in theory.
Besides, there are very few one dimensional players at that level, aside from some 3 point & defensive specialists off the bench.
Are you suggesting the Steph Curry isn't versatile because he doesn't average a double double? Neither did LeBron James.
You have quite the nerve attributing sexism to my comments when I specifically said the STAT is overrated.
When you have no real argument, it's attack the messenger, I guess.
