From an outside perspective I think Jrue is really the only one likely to have a high profile enough season to "break out". And if he plays like he did once he was able to average 30 MPG then he should. 20/7.5 should get him in the "He'd be an All Star if guard wasn't so loaded" tier.

From a Pels fan perspective I would put Hill and QPon as the most likely. If one of them can post a Trevor Ariza like 12/5/2/2 stat line, those "modest" numbers would exceed our expectations.

Solo hasn't had the surrounding offensive talent in Indy that he'll have here. PG is obviously a stud, but I don't think that they played very often together. AD + Jrue (and possibly Hield) will take a LOT of pressure off of him. I think he does give us that type of line while providing great defense while shooting ~36% from 3. Guy is an 83% FT shooter, the shot is there.

Also think Asik has his best season as a Pelican, but still won't be Houston level. Maybe JUST good enough to dump next offseason.

How well does he have to play to be a "breakout"? Dude was pretty damn good as a Pel in 14/15. I would be thrilled if he played equally as well, and I would be SHOCKED if he played better. What do people think his ceiling is?

Tim Frazier. Evans gets hurt or traded and Frazier is the number 1 backup point guard behind Jrue Holiday. It's all history from there.

He averaged 21 ppg post all star break and 23 ppg in the 20 games he saw 30+ mpg last season

Fraizer is not as good as y'all think Babbit was putting up 12-13 point a game at the end of bad seasons.

Ish "broke out" last year and got paid. I think Frazier can go from 3rd pg to 2nd pg.

Do you have to try hard to have such terrible opinions or does it just come natural?
