You also think Westbrook will finish #2?

I just look at what he's done with that bum Scott Brooks running iso. Now he gets a spread P&R offense which is unstoppable with he and Ibaka or Durant.

He might avg 20+/10+/7+.

i think durant finishes 1 or 2. if davis does shoot some 3s he's going to get #1 (and i will be happy as a pellies fan)

westbrook is going to have a more wide open offense, but so will durant. i also think durant has a chip on his shoulder

free agency year + coming off an injury where people questioned his future = beastmode

Durant's efficiency on high volume drive him up the PR.

Thunder have looked beastly this preseason under Donovan.

i think he's going to shoot more 3s

i think the bestbrook/ibaka pnr will be a staple with durant playing weakside out on the 3

more open looks and more drive opportunities

his FTs may decrease, which would frick me in that cat with deandre...same with harden losing some ballhandling due to lawson

I answered that as who will be the best across the league and not just on my team. I think KAT will be a great rookie, but these dudes who we'll remain nameless poop on Mudiay simply to troll. He is going to ball. His FTwon't be elite but they won't kill a team and I don't think his fg% will be a killer either depending on the team. The positives he will bring will make a lot of mates want to fap to the ESPN mini write-ups.

Top 20 - McCollum


I hope you are right, but I just don't see how it's possible.

What do you predict his averages to be?

That's a hope more than a prediction.

I think he averages close to 18 a game with about 5 assists and 3.5 boards. Close to 2 threes a game and 1.5 steals. Look at his numbers from April into the playoffs last year when he finally started getting run. For a combo guard he shoots it pretty good from the field. Top 35 is more likely.

Noel

Draymond

Jerian Grant.. When Calderon is either traded or hurt

What team are you most scared of in the league?

Toula/MWG are tops per my metrics

What team are you the least?

Obvious answer is Will but I think I match up with Gyno pretty well. My metrics don't love his team but I'm sure he will wheel n deal in typically TBM fashion and grind out a winner.

Who will be the best overall player in the league?

Davis

Who will be the surprise top 10/20 player?

Mirotic

Who will be the best rookie?

KAT




Also shout out to Knat. Welcome back buddy.

You got to be able to use them the right way. If you are just looking at ESPN projections which are lazy as F when you get passed the top 50 or so, then they are worthless.
