What are your EXPECTATIONS for the Hornets this year??

What do you EXPECT our starters to average??

What do you EXPECT our Overall Record to be??

-----------[ 2016 stats ]----------------------------------------------------

Kemba: 23 ppg, 5.5 apg, 4 rpg, 3pt shot = .399%

Batum: 15 ppg, 6 apg, 6 rpg, 3pt shot = .333%

MKG: 9 ppg, 1.5 apg, 7 rpg

Marvin: 11 ppg, 6.5 rpg, 3pt shot = .350% 

Howard: 13 ppg, 13 rpg, 1.2 bpg

Bench: 50 ppg, 20 rpg, 10 apg, 3pt shot = .327%
(Frank, Belinelli, Cody, Lamb and Sessions)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Add it All Up and What Do You Get = 120 ppg, 23 apg, 57 rpg, 3pt shot = .352%
Compared to 2016 actual numbers = 105 ppg, 23 apg, 44 rpg, 3pt shot - .350%

Our PPG and RPG shoot up because of Dwight.

------------[ Expectations ]----------------------------------------------------

Kemba: 20 ppg, 7 apg, 3.5 rpg, 3pt shot = .400%
His points will dip, but assists will go up from lobbing it up to Howard - Potential Allstar again

Batum: 17 ppg, 8 apg, 5 rpg, 3pt shot = .375%
I think his points will slightly improve because the wide open kick-outs create by defenses collapsing on Howard.

MKG: 10 ppg, 1 apg, 5 rpg
If ever there were a year where he needs to make his presence known - this is it. Don't hold your breath.

Marvin: 13 ppg, 6 rpg, 3pt shot = .355%
His reb #'s will dip because of Howard but his wide open 3pt shot selection will improve - he just has to make them.

Howard: 15 ppg, 13 rpg, 1.5 bpg
Dwight is basically being asked to play to his strengths here. Gobble up the boards, put backs dunks and rim protect. If Kemba and Batum can figure out how to work with Dwight - look out.

Bench: 50 ppg, 23 rpg, 15 apg, 3pt shot = .350%
If we can keep the same production from our bench as last year - with a bit more consistency - I will be more than happy.. Monk, Frank and Lamb have to improve their 3pt shot % (especially Lamb = .281%).

------------[ Team Expectations ]------------------------------------------------

Overall Record: 45 win team, 4-5 seed in the Playoffs with a 2nd round exit.

Not everybody will be playing all 82 games. Dummy 

 

if you look at GSW players stat, they probably averaged out 300 points per game

Typically you have a 9 or 10 man rotation, so the total of all the players doesn't much exceed the total PPG of the team.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
