Was bored and was thinking about what numbers I expect from the team we have now and this is what I came up with: Harris- 16 points, 7 assist, 2 steals Carter- 23 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assist Simmons-8 points, ?? Yi- 12 points, 6 rebounds, 1 blk Lopez- 8 points, 9 rebounds, 1 blk Dooling- 6 points, 4 assist CDR- 9 points, ?? Najera- 5 points, 4 rebounds Anderson 6 points, 5 rebounds Boone-7 points, 7 rebounds, 1 blk Hayes- 3 points, ?? SWill- 2 blks Swift- 2 pts Hassel, Ager, Gill/Hodge- maybe 4 points combined
Harris-18/4/7 Carter-24/6/6 Simmons-8/5/2 Yi-16/6/3 Boone-11/10/1 Dooling-7/2/4 CDR-6/3/1 Hayes-5/2/1 Najera-3/1/1 Anderson-5/2/1 Williams-7/3/1 Swift-2/2/0 Lopez-9/6/2 Hassel-2/0/0 Ager-2/0/0
thats about 125 ppg man. while thats possible, I doubt our offense will blossom that much! lol Yi will not avg 16 ppg..if so he will probably be Most Improved POY. also, VC and Harris could be down a little bit too but we will see
I'll only list stats relevant to the position (ex. no rebounds for Harris). I'll get more detailed as the regular season starts. Harris: 16 ppg, 6.5 apg VC: 22 ppg, 4 rpg, 5 apg Simmons: 7 ppg Yi: 12 ppg, 5 rpg Boone: 8 ppg, 8 rpg Lopez: 8 ppg, 5 rpg Dooling: 7 ppg, 3 apg Anderson: 5 ppg Williams: 6 ppg, 3 rpg Hayes: 5 ppg CDR: 6 ppg Najera: 1 ppg, 2 rpg Not included: Swift, Ager, Hassell, Gill, Hodge These are all subject to change, and fast, so don't be surprised if I post my detailed stat predictions in 2 weeks and these are all vastly different.
Swift, Hassel, and Ager will be inactive, and 2 more will likely be inactive each night. With injuries, more minutes per game will be played if all are combined than there actually are in a game. I don't think that last part made sense, so I'll use an example. Say Yi plays 30 minutes per game, scoring 16 per. For the examples purpose, I'll say Sean gets the last 18 minutes, scoring 4 or so per. But games where Yi misses, Sean gets those 30, scoring 12 per, or whatever gets him up to 7 per game. And Swift plays those last 18, scoring 2 per (again, just as an example) Yi plays 30 mpg, Sean gets the average, or about 25 maybe, and Swift averages 5 or so, including games he replaces Sean or gets garbage time. That is 60 minutes per game, more than the 48 allotted for power forwards. So production for PFs is 25 points/60 minutes, or 20 points per 48. So although it originally seems inflated, its not really.
I have to agree here, Averages dont equal what your team scores on a night to night basis. Yi will average somewhere in the 15-17 point average with our current roster provided he stays healthy simply because he does shoot that well and he will get enough touches to do so. Brook Lopez will definatly average double didgits points, and somewhere around 8-10 boards simply because of his size and that hes the only real post threat we have in our bigs so again he'll get the touches.
