    didn't boozer get avg a double double last year as a 2nd rounder? it's not impossible. last year tmac avg 32 , gooden avg 15 and giricek avg 16 in regular season, so it's not impossible for a trio to score that many points. in one game, tmac, gooden, giricek scored 96 pts between the 3 of them. yes i've admitted it's stupid and didn't add up the points and i've said that i would change some of the bench, except garrity and giricek, because they can get those points, since they will be playing starters minutes, but on the bench.

    btw allnet we get that the predictions were stupid, u've said it in every post on this thread, u don't need to keep repeating yourself, we can understand on the 1st time u said it.

    Boozer averaged 10 and 7..so really not close to a triple double...as 3 rebounds away is alot..boozer is also on a very bad team so he has a good chance to get good stats

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">gooden avg 15 and giricek avg 16 in regular season, so it's not impossible for a trio to score that many points</div>

    But they didn't score that many though...gooden averaged 13 with magic..giricek 14..mcgrady 32...their scoring won't improve that much next year...only mcgrady's likely would.

    what i was trying to prove is that it isn't impossible for tmac, gooden, and howard to combine to score that many points. since you keep saying that there is only 1 ball for them all.

    It isn't really possible to score that much for a whole season...only dallas can have 3 guys scoring like that...

    what's wrong with that? gooden got like 12 rebounds in the playoffs, again off of big ben. who says he can't do it for a full season?(other than allnet) howard always gets a double double. tmac always surprises people, you woulda laughed at me if i said tmac woulda even got 28 pts last year, look what he avg. it will be the same this year, he will continue to surprise people. giricek is an all around player, scoreless gets at least 12 ppg off of your bench. barry gets a lot too. GIRICEK WILL GET STARTERS MINUTES. (like how d mase did on the sonics before the trade)

    Mike bibby also averaged 25PPG in the playoffs last year..look who bad he did this year...gooden is not ben wallace or kevin garnett he does not have the will to get 12 rebounds a game and likely never will..howard is a weak rebounder..he averaged 7 on a team who were the worst in the league.why will he get more in Orlando? where did you get howard always gets a double double from? he doesn't....he has NEVER averaged 10 rebounds a game in his whole career..it won't start now..i expected mcgrady to average 30 this year..and he got 32...i wasn't far off..but don't expet him to average that much more the rest of his career...and how will giricek average 10,4 and 4 when the starters howard,gooden and mcgrady all get big time minutes? if howard gets 10 RPG and gooden 12..how will giricek get any minutes at all? and don't compare the mason situation...his team-mates not counting GP and lewis weren't all that..and won't get the minutes howard,gooden and mcgrady will expect to get

    what are u talking about gooden doesn't have the will to avg 12 rebounds a game? he has plenty of will to do it. he goes all out and is very aggressive with those rebounds. i was wrong about howard, sorry. tmac will get 30+, 7, 7 this year. giricek will get at least 25 mpg. he will play when gooden or howard get into foul trouble, and we will go to a 3 forward lineup with howard at center, and that would bring giricek in. also bibby was injured, that explains why he didn't do as good last year.

    Bibby has always been an average player..my point was one good playoff series doesn't mean they will continue that the next season and improve alot..as thats what gooden would have to do...no way he averages 12 rebounds a game..he isn't the kind of player to average 12 rebounds a game..he is no KG or ben or rodman....no way does a player improve his rebounding by 6 in one season..not possible...giricek will get 25MPG? then how will gooden get 12 rebounds when he has to sit down alot of the time? same with howard? mcgrady will not average 7 rebounds and 7 assists..he is not that great a passer to average that...and if you think gooden will average 12 and mcgrady 7...then you would be one of the best rebounding teams in the league..so do you really think that will happen? try not to be too biased...but i guess thats a silly request

    does big ben ring a bell? he jumped his rebounding avg way up when he went to the pistons and got playing time. what about tayshaun? u always say that he is gonna be awesome because he had the 1 great playoff series. gooden has loads more potential than tayshaun, so how the hell can u say that tayshaun can improve, but gooden can't? tmac is a great passer, he woulda had at least 7 assists last year if kemp could make a layup. gooden is gonna get 40 mpg(hopefully), howard will get around 30(20 at sf, 10 at center), so that would leave 28 minutes at sf, so that would allow giricek to play 28 minutes.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">does big ben ring a bell? he jumped his rebounding avg way up when he went to the pistons and got playing time</div>

    Read my post..i said 2nd season..it is highly unlikely a player rebounding average jump that high going into his 2nd season

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">what about tayshaun? u always say that he is gonna be awesome because he had the 1 great playoff series</div>

    When did i say prince would average big numbers for next year? i didn't..i said he will be a very good role player for us...nothing about him being a star..like you are with gooden

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">tmac is a great passer, he woulda had at least 7 assists last year if kemp could make a layup</div>

    Yes and if andre miller team-mates had made shots consistantly he would of averaged 12 assists a game instead of 7 [​IMG] it just doesn't work like that...

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">gooden has loads more potential than tayshaun, so how the hell can u say that tayshaun can improve, but gooden can't? </div>

    Where did i say gooden won't improve? i said he won't improve that much next season..never said anything about seasons to come after that.

    tmac only needs 1 more apg to have 7, so if kemp made 1 layup a game, then that woulda been 7.

    here's your exact words
    no way does a player improve his rebounding by 6 in one season..not possible

    so u didn't say going into the 2nd season. big ben still fits that quote, so it is possible.

    you are always praising prince and saying that he should start at sf and would play a big role in your team and **** like htat.

    Big ben and gooden are totally different..ben goes after the ball hard..and watches it all the time..don't compare them

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">you are always praising prince and saying that he should start at sf and would play a big role in your team and **** like htat.</div>

    I praised prince for his playoff performances and why shouldn't I?....and yes he should start..who would you rather have start..curry or prince? no brainer to me...and yes he is key role in our team..we wouldn't of beaten philly without him...

    gooden goes after the ball hard, how can u not say that after u saw gooden rebound 17 in a game against big ben? he is so agressive, he is too agressive, IMO(because he picks up a lot of stupid fouls out of his agression) he has the desire and will, he just might not have the talent yet.

    If he was like ben then maybe he would of showed it through the season with his rebounds...but he didn't..so predicting him to average 12 rebounds a game is crazy...and again you are basing his performance on one playoff series..not through a whole season....14 and 8 are more realistic numbers for him..after the next year or two..then he will start improving to maybe get to 10 a game..but no more

    he was a rookie, did you expect him to be like ben in his 1st year? no. he had to learn the game, i expect him to get at least 10 though this year, because our rebounding is still a little weak(aside from him and tmac), but getting better. u keep saying that he doesn't have the desire to grab all the rebounds, he has the desire, but he might not have reached the talent to grab them yet.

    You just proved my point...he won't get 12 or 10.or anything close to what ben gets as he will only be a 2nd year player....so don't expect a big improvement in his stats next season..the year after could be a different story
