    Total! Kt and Moe Together
    If between the Two of them we could get

    20 ~ 25 pts total
    10 ~ 15 Rebounds
    3 ~ 5 Asst
    1 ~ 3 Steals
    no more than say 3 Turnovers

    I guess I would be ok

    But I would Dream More like this
    What would we like out of our PFs [total]
    25 ~ 35 pts total
    15 ~ 20 Rebounds
    5 ~ 7 Asst
    3 ~ 5 Steals

    We'd have a REAL NBA PF, or Webber. [​IMG]

    LIVe My thoughts Exactly
    If we can get those kind of numbers
    and some credible decent Defense
    out of these two
    we could do battle at the 4 spot
    becuase hopefully they would be fresher
    than Norm

    I mean Our starter would be a little below
    their starter but hopefully our Sub is better
    than their sub and balance it out

    Rocket River -
    great thread idea. The lack of responses is surprising. I limited my comparisons to WC Playoff contenders. Here's my take.

    *** POINTS > I didn't check all the combinations, but Webber and Funderburke have to be near the top. They combine for 31.1 ppg. Peja is 2nd and is about equal to Steve. SAC's #3 is JDubb @11.5ppg and that's 6 less than Cat. My conclusion is that 25.1 ppg out of the PF (31.1-6) would win alot of games for the Rockets.

    *** REBOUNDS > This is a little tougher. I'm gonna break it down further. First Offensive boards.

    The Lakers are the top rebounding WC Playoff team with Shaq and Ho Grant @ 7.2 ORPG. Duncan & Rose combine for 5.6 while Dale Davis & Sheed get 5 even. Webber & Funderburke get 3.3. I think 4.0 is reasonable for ORPG.

    Next Defensive boards. I propose Sheed & Davis as the PF gold standard here. They are averaging a combined 11.8 DRPG. Shaq is the individual leader 8.9. That would be enough.

    I think 12.9 RPG would get the job done.

    *** Assists > Malone & Manning are 5.6 APG while CWebb & Funderburke 3.9. Duncan is regarded as a good passing big man. He and Rose are at 3.6. I'll take 3.8 any game.

    *** STEALS > PHX, SAC, and POR lead the WC. Robinson & Marion are at 3.0, Webber & Peja at 2.63 and Wallace and Stoudamire get 2.52 SPG. I think 2.2 is passable.

    *** TURNOVERS > How about Nowitski and Vaught at 2.9.


    *** CONCLUSION

    As of the Vancouver game Mo and KT were:

    PPG > short 7.8 PPG
    REBS > short 2.0 O + 6.3 D = 8.3 REBS
    ASSISTS > short 1.5 APG
    STEALS > short 1.34
    TO's > 0.9 too high

    IMHO, all of these are within reach of KT & Mo combined.

    Thanks Gater

    I think this is a more positive way to think
    of it. As I stated tonite Either Mo or KT
    will show up on any given night as long
    as they not both horrible on the same night
    we are ok.

    Tonight:
    PPG > 25.1 / KT 7 + MO 1 = 8 / Short 16.9
    REB > 4.0O +8.9D=12.9 /O=5KT+2MO + D=7KT+2MO / O=3 over D=0.1 over = Total 3.1 Over
    AST > 3.9 / KT 0 + MO 0 = 0 / Short 3.9
    ST > 2.2 / KT 0 + MO 0 = 0 / Short 2.2

    BS > ? / KT 1 + MO 1 = 2 / ?

    btw bottom line = W

    bottom Line Win!!
    Exactly

    I think from here out I'm just gonna look
    at position stats than individuals.

    How did our PFs do on Defense?
