wil.

PS. Notice records broken down into what quarter they occured.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Wil, I know the NBA breaks it down by quarter. I'm not disputing your findings. But I have taken a personal vow not to recognize those records. A man has to stand for something, you know?

Think of it this way. Sooner or later, some team is gonna score one (or zero) point in a quarter. If it is the 2nd quarter, nobody is going to refer to the record as the "lowest points scored in the 2nd quarter".

I don't like it when people get too nit-picky with records, trends, stats, etc. And I consider records by 1st/2nd/3rd/4th quarter to be too nit-picky.

FWIW, I refuse to acknowledge any NBA record that is specified by quarter. Shouldn't matter if it is the 2nd or 4th quarter. All quarters are created equal!

Show me a book (that pays and) that has the same line & total on every quarter of a game and (while becoming wealthy) I'll buy your argument.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Ah, but we're talking apples and oranges. Big difference between record-keeping and gambling.

2 pts in a quarter in the NBA is incomprehensible. How could professional athletes be this inept? they deserve something for this. Some type of award.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Yesterday, Miami only scored 64 against the Knicks!

But these low scores are to be expected when you've got a generation of players who only practiced how to dunk and dribble the ball with their knees.
