    In 3 point % EG is 40% that is 2nd among rookies (Radman is 1st shooting 45%)

    averaging 8.8 points per game, good for 7th among rooks .

    5.5 rebounds per game is good for 3rd.

    1.8 blocks per game is good for 2nd behind Gasol.

    ranks 3rd with 5 double doubles

    9th among rooks in FG% , (Oz is 6th)

    Minutes per game - 10th with 23.6 (Battier is 1st with almost 40)

    5th in free throw PCT shooting 75% with (Oscar IS NUMBER 1 BABY shooting 80%

    19th in assists per game with .7 , Tierre Brown is 6th with 1.7 , Jamaal Tinsley is the only rookie dishing out over 4 assists per game

    After Looking at the Current Rookie stats , The All Rookie Teams should be this :

    First Team

    Pau Gasol
    Eddie Griffin
    Shane Battier
    Jason Richardson
    Jamaal Tinsley

    Second Team

    Brendon Haywood
    Andrei Kirlenko
    Oscar Torres
    Trenton Hassell
    Jesus (aka Tony Parker)

    Believe it or not, Griffin is either 1st or 2nd among rookies in PPG, FG%, 3PT%, RPB and BPG since Dec. 18th when he started getting regular playing time.

    This shows how the per game stat is really not fair to many players.

    How about per minute stats?

    Blocks/minute
    Points/minute
    Boards/minute
    Minutes/minute ;)

    Or better yet, these stats per 48 minutes

    I think this class is outstanding.

    I would rate EG just behind Gasol right now with Battier in 3rd.

    These 3 will be ALL Star players for years to come...a great class.
