Bobcats by the numbers: 62.4


Recommended Posts

Corey Maggette may be asked to carry a heavy offensive load for the Bobcats next season -- their returning roster averaged just 62.4 ppg in the NBA last season.

This doesn't include any scoring from rookies, of course, but then again nobody expects Bismack Biyombo and Kemba Walker to be lighting up the scoreboard. Give a small by-default fantasy boost to guys like Tyrus Thomas, D.J. Augustin, Maggette, and Gerald Henderson.

Obviously this is the returning roster, not including guys that are expected to return, like Kwame Brown who averaged 7.9 points per game or Dante Cunningham who averaged 6.2 points per game.

With that said, who do you guys think will lead the Bobcats in scoring next year?

A lot of the burden will be on Hendo to fill the scoring role. It'd be nice and I wouldn't be surprised if our starters at positions 1-4 have around the same scoring averages. I think it'll either be Maggette or Henderson, but I'll vote for Gerald.

Maggette averaged 20 ppg two years ago on 50% shooting with Golden State. He'll fit in perfectly with Silas' fast paced style. Hopefully Hendo can up his scoring average and we get about 40ppg from Hendo and Maggette combined.

Too bad Hendo misses the first month of the season and will be slow to get back into game form. Really I think expecting 20 out of Hendo is going to be tough. Teams are going to start game planning for him. He needs a bit more of an outside shooting touch.

Seriously DJ will probably lead the team in scoring.

Yeah, I'm surprised that out of 17 people I am the only one that picked DJ. Hendo had major surgery and Kemba will be a rookie. Not saying DJ will definitely be the high scorer, just surprised nobody else thinks so.

    • The same folks crying about the OL right now were crying about it in 2023 too. We have tied up over 100 million dollars in two interior olinemen alone and we have Taylor Moton inked to a recent extension. We've invested multiple first and second round picks in the offense. We hired an offensive minded head coach. This is an offensive team. The offense needs to produce or people need to be replaced.
    • This is the same place that has ridiculed and blasted Caleb Williams at every opportunity he has his team sitting at 10-4 in the same NFC that the Panthers are competing in. And their division in the NFC North is as or more competitive as our division. Yet from the same people who have very high standards for Williams we get every excuse imaginable for the smallest starting QB in the league even when he and his team continue to disappoint when the pressure is on. You lot aren't any less inconsistent than anyone else.
    • The Panthers are 9th in cap spent on offense this year.  However next season is already a different story  The Panthers as it stands right now will be 18th in cap spent on offense and 8th in cap spent on defense  The Panthers are currently set to spend more on defense next year than they are on offense this season Guys like Jaycee and Moehrig cap numbers take a big jump. Wharton has a massive cap hit   Jaycee Moehrig and Wharton in 2025 The same 3 in 2026 So this same defense as it stands right now will cost more in 2026 than this offense does right now… Got anything else you want to try?
