Wasn't sure where to put this...
My new addiction and passtime for working night shifts has been watching old sports videos on Youtube. They have complete games for many famous or historical games/events. So far I've watched the Michael Jordan flu game, Kobe's 81 points, Ali-Frazier part I (and will soon watch the rest of the trilogy). Also high on my to-watch list are Allen Iverson's game one of the 2001 (?) Finals, with 48 points and 12 assists,
and a couple more MJ games, and right now I'm about to watch the 2017 U18 hockey gold medal game. Wanna see Vesalainen and Heiskanen playing in their own age group, and 2018 draft eligibles Quinn Hughes, Jesse Ylonen and Oliver Wahlstrom. I actually don't remember who won, so this should be fun, and I'm fully expecting Heiskanen to play 30 minutes.
There doesn't seem to be much for hockey in terms of individual performances. I can go back and watch all the recent medal games from U18 and U20s, which is super cool. But I'm having trouble thinking of or finding games of remarkable individual performances. There is a 5 goal Mario Lemieux game. Obviously basketball is a lot more susceptible to these kinds of individual performances than is hockey, or certainly, remarkable performances show up more clearly on the scoresheet.
As for NBA games, watching the Kobe game was fun, but I think more fun than seeing one player just scoring a ton of points, would be a more all-round game. Does anybody know of any huge double or triple double games? Like 30 or 40 points to go with 20 assists or rebounds or anything like that? Same goes for hockey, but it's tougher to even know what to look for. More telling than the number of points or goals would be the number of high quality scoring chances, and how clutch of a situation it is.
Anybody with any ideas for me?
