Over the past three contests against Milwaukee Bucks, Sacramento Kings and Detroit Pistons, Chandler has averaged an astounding 20 rebounds, matching a streak that was last accomplished by Hall of Famer Willis Reed – a Knicks legend – back in December of 1969. In that same span, however, Chandler has only managed to score 9.3 points – more than two points below his average of 11.8. How dare he!
With his ability to finish baskets, a 20-20 game should certainly be attainable for the center if he chose to fish for such stats. With so many capable scorers on the team, though, there isn’t necessarily a need for Chandler to try to think outside the box.
9.3 points and 20 rebounds will do just fine.

The Knicks will take 20 rebounds over 20 points from Chandler any day.
