30 point games

[ViolentGhandi]

hello I'm really intrested in this.

Celtics have atm 4 players with one or more 30 point games. How do other teams compare to them in this regard?

Clippers here:

Lou Williams: 35, 32
Kawhi: 38, 30, 30, 30
P. George: 37, 33
Trez: 34, 34

Edit:
On first glance, 4 guys that scored 30 one game might not sound that much, but it means:
- that we (and Clips) have 4 guys that can go off at any moment
- that we can sustain off nights from our stars more easily
- that we can find a mismatch more easily

[ViolentGhandi]

that was exactly my idea

[ETNCeltics]

I looked through the EC and I don't think anyone had anything resembling us having 4 guys, which makes sense, few teams will have a gap from their top 4 scorers to the rest like we do.

IIRC, Butler's big night against us the other night was only Miami's 2nd 30 pt. game of the season, and Butler had the other one as well. Philly only had a couple non-Embiid 30 pt. games, and Bledsoe was the only Buck to get 30 in a game, other than Freak, who gets it almost every night.

I was just coming here to post about Detroit doing it and that is without Griffin, but bdm went all out on that.  Props man.

I have to admit I don't take much from this that shows the C's are superlative in some manner.

teams have players that can have a hot night and many teams have had more nights than the C's where someone's gone on a scoring binge.  I would think a more telling piece of information, if looking to find a reason to praise the C's, is how many games the team has multiple players scoring 20 or more points or how many players have scoring averages of 18 or more.  I think that would be more telling in determining a high potency offense.

just my thoughts on it
