Rob Williams' improvement, and his stat line last night versus the Suns, indicates he has a shot at joining a very-elite group - the four NBA stars who have come away from a game with a quadruple-double. Rob's stat line in Boston's win over Phoenix showed 10 points, 11 boards, 10 assists and five blocks . The four players to have achieved the quad-double goal previously are David Robinson, Nate Thurmond, Alvin Robinson and Hakeem Olajuwon. Among the five possible stats (points, rebounds, assists, blocks, steals), blocks are the second-most-difficult to produce in double-digits - with steals being the hardest to reach . Williams III seems to be able to block two-or-three shots in a single play, so 10 blocks are reachable for him. Wins are what count in the NBA, but quadruple-doubles, when achieved, show hard work, balanced-and-effective play - and go a long way to leading a team to victory.
