I was kind of saying the same thing about basketball the other day... "He was the first person to score 20 points, 13 rebounds, and 9 assists, and at least 1 steal per game in the playoffs since Michael Jordan!!!" they make it sound so impressive, but there's probably lots of people who still scored say, 25 points per game and had 14 rebounds per game, but only got 8 assists, or didn't have a steal, so they can take them off the list.
