Francis 38 mpg Moochie 20 mpg Mobley37 mpg Torres 15 mpg Nachbar 30mpg Rice 25 mpg Griffin 36 mpg Taylor 20 mpg Ming 30 mpg Cato 10 mpg Basically we probebly have the most expensive bench in the NBA and i know we are paying Cato to much to only be playing 10 minutes a game but the guy has to show hes getting better. I really think the biggest Factor here is Eddie Griffin. With that much PT we are seeing what he can do in the SUMmer leagues.

Since such a team would average 129 points per game, I agree that the Rockets would be formidable if you are correct
Im saying we will Avg about 104 ppg. Just because they all average that many points doesnt nessecerally mean they will avg 129 ppg. Some guys will have good days and others will have bad and on other nights a guy will have a break out night to the other guys bad night. U see doesnt mean we are going to avg that many ppg but 104 is realistic
Ming and Griffin Are going to be hard to penatrate through. The only person i see bullying his way through these guys is Shaq but thats it. We will always have good weak side help. Kenny needs to be traded for some draft picks or something cus i really dont see him for the future plans. I like Taylor and Moochie coming off the bench cus they can provide us with an offensive spark off the bench. OUr Defence will not be bad at all i say we allow 98ppg
sorry to sound like an ass...but here goes: 1. ming is still a ? mark regarding how he'll do in his first year. he'll need 1 or 2 years of developing. Griffin will be a very good defender but that doesn't mean he can shut out the likes of duncan, webber, etc. night in and night out. 2. we never have good weak side help. 3. asking taylor to come off the bench (which is somethin i want b/c Griff will be starting after 20 or so games) is literally asking a 7 million dollar vet to sub for a 2nd year player....which won't go all that well. and seeing how there are reports that mo is gettin down to his playing weight, we shall see. 4. you say we allow 98 ppg. and score 104 ppg. only two teams (SA and sac) were able to pull that feat off. askin a lil too much IMO
If you add up the averages and it equals 129, then it is impossible for the team to average 104 ppg. The team in your case would average 129 ppg. Just because some players have off nights doesnt matter. Averages are averages.
I guess im throwing in the Injury bug in there. That is why the Avgs will be around there Rice will be hurt alot this year. Steve is bound to miss a couple of games so is mobley. But We will have enough fire power to out score anyone. HAVE FAITH GUYS!
so now the injury bug hits. but like rezdawg said, averages are averages. if francis avg. 20 points over 82 games, it's still 20 ppg. if he only did it over 65 games, it's still 20 ppg
i failed to recognized this no way in hell are we going to get 28 points total from rice, torres, AND moochie.
hey, that's not bad at all. but ya gotta separate things that CAN happen and things that are just crazy...especially for rookies and 2nd year guys. but hey, we're all rockets fans..so sometimes we mix it up......i guess....
