    I doubt Durant gets 8 RPG, probably more like 5.5-6.0. Amen may reach 10 RPG, I’m thinking assists for Sengun will probably be around 6. I think the 3Pt % will be switched between Amen and Sengun. Points about right.

    You've got the wrong big 3.

    It's actually Durant / Sengun / Sheppard

    No problem.


    Side note: Durant is about to open up the offense for everyone. Can't wait to see the spacing on the floor with a bonafide super star who can shoot lights out every night.

    So you think Amen is going to jump to 35%?
    Alp doesn’t make any jump?

    Yea, I might have to re-consider the Alpi part. I do think his 3pt% will be better. I think it is more important for him to quit hesitating and let if fly and more importantly than anything else he needs to get his touch back in the lane. I generally think that Amen is more of a gym rat and improvements will be faster than Sengun who I think has a fine work ethic, but Amen is insane when it comes to basketball training. If both can get to 35% and Jabari to 40% we will win the championship.

    He said to switch them. So if Thompson goes to 35% and Sengun goes to 32%, then Sengun would have a slightly larger improvement over last year than Thompson.

    Sengun shot 23.3% last year. 32% would be a huge jump.

    Career wise, it would be a much larger jump for Amen.
    Alp career average is basically Amens season last year.

    Recent history doesn't count? Sengun's fg% career wise was also much higher than what he gave us last year.

    With the incredibly low volume of 3pt shots, it wouldn't make any difference if they shot 100%. Nobody will alter their defense because a player might hit one 3 in a game.

    But you’re going to take the worst year of a player to say that’s the bigger jump?
    Context for sure matters.
    Sounds like you might have an agenda
