    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (SunnyD @ Jul 22 2006, 09:49 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Greg Oden: 33 ppg, 14 rpg, 3.6 bpg. He's going to be great. I love how he plays. He's not a skinny tall player, like Bosh or KG. He's got muscle, and will be like David Robinson.</div>Greg Oden isnt that skilled offensivley... The only way he gets close to averaging tha tmany ppg is if he gets 75 percent of them off of dunks. If Shaq cant average 33 a game, I dont see Greg Oden doing it. Now for the blocks and rebounds, I agree with completley. His rebounds possibly even higher...

He is not as good as Brand offensively. He wont get 25 and 10 that is just rediculous. He is not a very good offensive player.</div>Elton Brand didn't get his jumper until this year. I never compared Al to Elton. I was proving a point to say that you don't need a jumper to score in this league.

    LeBron James- His Best: 34 ppg, 8 rpg, 6 apg- What you expect: LeBron will definitely average these numbers or something around that for years. Hes going to be a HOF no doubt.Al Jefferson- His Best: 24 ppg, 12 rpg, 2 apg- What you expect: I don't really know anything about Al J. but when I saw he averaged 42 PPG and 16 RPG in High School I freaked. If this guy reaches his full potential hes going to be a beastDwight Howard- His Best: 26 ppg, 15 rpg, 2 apg- What you expect: 26 Rebounds says a lot to what hes going to become in the league.Chris Paul- His Best: 22 ppg, 11 apg, and 5 rpg- What you expect: Next version of Jason Kidd. All I gotta say.Andrew Bogut- His Best: 22 ppg, 11 rpg, and 4 apg- What you expect: I think he will become a great player in the future. If Mags wasn't there I think he woulda gave Chris Paul some competition in the ROY race last year.Andrea Bargnani - His Best: 25 ppg, 8 rpg, and 2 apg- What you expect: If he reaches his full potential I see him as another version as Dirk but slight differences.Rudy Gay- His Best: 25 ppg, 8 rpg, and 5 apg- What you expect: Comparisons to Scottie Pippen have been pumping me up for this guy. Too bad Carroll Dawson is a idiot.Adam Morrison- His Best: 31 ppg, 7 rpg, and 2 apg- What you expect: If he reaches his full potential, I see him being the leader in PPG a few times.Andrew Bynum- His Best: 24 ppg, 10 rpg, 1. apg- What you expect: I also don't know much about Bynum. But i've seen him play a few times and im pretty excited to see what he can do in the future._______________________________________________Deron Williams- His Best: 19 PPG, 10 APG, 3 RPG- What you expect: If he stays with Utah and AK-47 leaves, I see a great leader for years to come. He has amazing coutvision and he knows pretty much where everyone is. I see a friendly rivalry between Chris Paul and himself.[​IMG]...You left out Deron Williams and Marvin. >.>

Do you have any idea how hard it is to average 10 assists alone....and then to get 25 points on top of that? If you are going to say he will average 10 assits per game, then he is going to get tops 18 ppg. If you say he going to get 25 ppg, then he is going to get tops 7 or maybe 8 assists per game....

    That is more realistic...but you do understand that those are basically Steve Nash's numbers when he won MVP right? Well i guess that is why we say if they reach their full potential...And just to say, if all of these players do what we say, the NBA is going to be amazing this next decade!

    I don't see Deron Williams' full potential being that high. He wasn't a guy that had alot of upside. He will be solid, but 20/10 is going over board. That's perennial all-star numbers.

    kingjamez: If we are judging a player over their high school performances then wouldnt Dejaun Wagner have been an all star by now averaging 30 ppg in the NBA?Im not going to evaluate him over high school performances. That makes no sense. To me, he doesnt seem like a player who will score alot of points. He is a good post player, but I doubt he will ever be a dominant scorer scoring 25 ppg in the League [​IMG]

And I cant believe you brought Dajuan Wagner into this he's played in 11 NBA games in the last 2 NBA seasons. He has a good set of post moves for a guy that came straight out of HS.

You've obviously never seen him play. Maybe once or twice. bc if you had seen him enough, you'd know that his potential is sky high.

    if Andrea Bargnani can get 9 or 10 rebounds and you only have dwight at 13 ur out of ur mind Andrea Bargnani is a horrible rebounder now i mean he'll improve but dirk wasnt to bad of a rebounder coming into the league dwight is 20 and already averages 12.5 boards he thinks 20 is possible he said he thinks sometime in his career he can get 18 rebounds. he is the closest thing since shaq we've seen once he develops a killer instinct watch outAndrea Bargnani could get 10 boards becuase coming out of college ppl said shaq offense was poor and wow were they wrong but 3.9 boards in the summer league isnt good rebounding to make me ever belive that he'll ever make it past 8 boards he will score alot tho!

He got like 3 or 4 a game in Summer League. He wont get 10 a game unless he improves dramatically in that department.

    I dont think so, unless he improves his rebounding big time. The guy couldnt get more then 4 rebounds a game against summer league scrubs. It all depends if he improves his rebounding though, but as of now he is no where close to getting 10 boards a night..
