| I think D'lo could average 20+. I don't think that's what's best for the team though. JC getting 18-20 off the ball + D'lo creating havoc will be more effective. |

I just feel like you could change the name dlo to Jeremy Lin and you'd have some of the wildly passionate but demonstrably delusional paens we witnessed a couple years ago. |
J.Lin got the AI cornrows... Nets winning the east |

You bring up the Warriors an awful lot. |
Its pretty clear to me that we are following the Warriors philosophy to build post-Kobe era and there are a lot of similarities
Our young point guard has the same skillset as theirs
Our young power forward has an all around game like theirs. Randle has even compared himself to Green in interviews
Ingram is very similar to Durant
Deng is a player who can defend the 3 or 4. can hit the open long ball, can drive to the hoop, can rebound his position......sounds a little like how Golden State used Iguadola and Barnes
And we hire their top assistant coach, who will bring the same philosophies, structure, and sets that the Warriors use |

I admire your bluntness. Alot of people will only imply that they think DLO is the next Steph Curry. But you have the balls to flat out say it.
I'm not sure DLO will ever be a 2 time reigning MVP with one year as a unanimous choice. But I like that you have the guts to openly compare the two anyways.

There are 20 players in the NBA who score 20+ ppg.
Very few teams have 1 let alone 2 20ppg scorers.

Got it...DLO: 19.8 / Clarkson 22
We don't have Kobe...i feel russell and clarkson are going to go steph and klay on us and take a majority of the shots. I am being a bit ambitious but i do believe one of those guys will be at 20-22 |

I think JC will hover in the 17.5-19 ppg range while DLO is at 15.5-17.5 range.

I have 16~18 for Dlo and 16-19 for JC.
Outside of some overly optimistic few, most here seem to expect 17+ppg for Dlo and 18+ for JC. I think this would be very close to a reality. Not bad.
Not bad at all. |

That's also a team that scores 128 points lol or 13 points/game higher than the 73 win Warriors...arguably the most potent offensive team in modern history. That's also 17 more points/game than the best offensive version of the run and gun Suns. That's more points a game than those ridiculous Doug Moe Nuggets teams that shot the ball every 2 seconds. |

Russell is a better offensive player then Clarkson, he should average more. |

I don't know next season, but in the long run I believe Russell is going to be our leading scorer if we keep our core. |

I honestly don't think so but if we do I think it will be Clarkson. He is more of a gunner  .
Dlo is a little more passive imo. |

Sorry but if you think playing next to Kobe is a hindrance to a players game you need to check your history

That's not how to factor PPG...

Maybe the rookie version, summer league's Russell was jacking shots in spurts like if there is not tomorrow and he is the best shooter |

Playing next to Kobe in his final year was brutal. Not talking about his entire career. |

Don't know what his stats look like but I'll say that by seasons end D'LO will look like the clear second best player from his class with Booker and KP following them.
If I had to guess, 21/4/4 although I wouldn't mind 18/4/8 |

I don't see him averaging 18 shots per game.
I know he isn't a traditional pg but a lead guard (similar role to Curry), but
he is also our best ball distributor on the starting lineup. JC, Randle, Deng all will get double digit shot attempts. |

How was it brutal for JC? He led the team in minutes and was 2nd in shot attempts.

It was brutal for JC, Russell, and us fans for having to watch it. It stunted his development. |
