Danny Granger scored 25.8 ppg on a team that had better secondary scoring options. And Danny Granger is a worse offensive player than Harden. Kevin Martin averaged 24.6 once in Sacramento. I'll say 23-26, but i think i'm cautious here. I won't be surprised if it's close to 30. This is a guy who averaged 30 ppg last year when Durant/Westbrook were on the bench.
20-5-5 I think Lin will be able to score more now, and be asked to create less for others, which Harden does very well.
Call me crazy but I think Harden is gonna average 25.7 ppg 4.3 rpg 3.2 apg 1.1 spg him and JLin will be tough!
yeah, this is more along the lines of what i'd expect too. i'm not sure about Lin-Harden-Parsons chemistry short term, Lin and Parsons need to keep working on their shot over the next few years. But I expect Harden to have an awesome individual year and silence a lot of people.
33.4 mins 24.3 pts (15+ fga) 4.7 ast (better passing games) 4.0 rbs (Asik will grab most of the rbs) 1.3 stls (more trasition games lead to more tos by both sides) 0.2 blks 2.5 tos (^the same) 5.0 fta 47% fg% 38% 3p% 82 ft%
Definitely! It's been a long time since we've done one of those Drafts, wonder where Harden would be drafted
With the Rockets' starting lineup, Harden will be the scorer. He's going to get the ball a ton and he will score a ton. 25 PPG.
