This one’s not too bad. Turnovers are usually how you make comebacks happen, so greatest 0-turnover comeback has some meaning.

Not nearly as egregious as something like:

> Luka is the only player under 23 to average 40/8/7/3 for a 5-game span

Where points, assists, rebounds, steals, age, and number of games are all largely unrelated stats, and thus giving you six degrees of freedom to make almost any stat line unique.

Yeah I actually kinda like this one, it taught me something new. So much better than the Luka example, which I feel like the NBA is rife with.

Though it is the 5th largest comeback of all time, so it's not really all that hard to find one thing to add to make it the biggest comeback with [x modifier] lol.

My family jokes about how all statistics are so conditional that they’re meaningless.
