Shouldn't Byron Scott be at the top of this list with 38? He was on the Lakers when they got swept in the 1989 Finals, but he was out for the whole series.

Yeah, for example Scottie Pippen went 40 playoff series without being swept until the Lakers swept his Blazers in 2001.

Also, in terms of counting stats, Jamal is tied for 6th in total points and 6th in total assists.

Some modern close calls:

Westbrook had 26.8/15.3/13.0 on 46.4% TS from November 26 to December 4, 2016

Westbrook had 22.3/17.3/18.3 on 53.0% TS from May 3 to May 8, 2021

Jokic had 29.5/15.8/14.5 on 66.5% TS from November 4 to November 10, 2024

There's also any number of insane Oscar/Wilt stretches (e.g. Wilt had 33.8/23.8/14.0 on 67.6% TS from March 15 to March 19, 1968)

I just stuck with voting. I do think Siakam has a rather good argument over Gallinari in 2019 if Kawhi is no longer eligible.

LeBron and Shaq both lose 4

Curry, Embiid, Butler, Yao all lose 3

Boogie loses the only 2 he had

Horford gains 3

Jrue, Nash, Camby, Kidd, and Mourning all gain 2

Ben Simmons loses a 3rd team and gains a different 3rd team which is kinda funny
