The New York Knicks have had some great big men over the years — Patrick Ewing, Charles Oakley, Eddy Curry. But none of those managed what Tyson Chandler has done over the past three games. Against the Detroit Pistons, the All-Star center grabbed 20 rebounds for the third straight game.

According to the Knicks, this hasn't happened since 1969.

.@tysonchandler now has 20 or more rebounds in three consecutive games. Last #Knicks player to do that: Willis Reed in 1969. — NBA New York Knicks (@nyknicks) February 5, 2013

The last NBA player to do this was Kevin Love back in 2011. Tyson Chandler will have a chance to make it four games in a row against the Washington Wizards on Wednesday.
