My prediction for stats next year

[joester5612]

Skal: 15.2 ppg, 7.2 rpg, 3.2 bpg
Poytress: 8.8 ppg, 5.8 rpg, 1.8 bpg
Mulder: 8.2 ppg, 2.8 rpg, 40 % 3 point shooter
Ulis: 9.4 ppg, 6.5 apg, 2.1 spg
Briscoe: 14.8 ppg, 3.8 apg, 3.3 rpg
Lee: 8.5 ppg, 6.8 rpg, 2.8 bpg
Mathews: 4.8ppg, 3.2 rpg
Hawkins: 3.2 ppg, 2.1 apg
Willis: 4.2 ppg, 2.8 rpg

If these stats prove to be close to the real thing, I would be ecstatic; because it means that Lee has improved a lot and had Joakim Noah type season. It also means that Willis and Hawkins are giving us good minutes off the bench and contributing like thy must do. Finally, it means that Skal and Briscoe are the best freshman duo we have ever had at UK, hope I am wright!

Sounds pretty good, hope you are close on your numbers.

Skal: 15.2 ppg, &.2 rpg, 3.3 bpg
Poytress: 8.8 ppg, 5.8 rpg, 1.8 bpg
Mulder: 8.2 ppg, 2.8 rpg, 40 % 3 point shooter
Ulis: 9.4 ppg, 6.5 apg, 2.1 spg
Briscoe: 14.8 ppg, 3.8 apg, 3.3 rpg
Lee: 8.5 ppg, 6.8 rpg, 2.8 bpg
Mathews: 4.8ppg, 3.2 rpg
Hawkins: 3.2 ppg, 2.1 apg
Willis: 4.2 ppg, 2.8 rpg

Otherwise looks pretty solid to me. Although I think we will have 3 players avg double figure points this season since the rotation will be smaller. So I'd guess to say it would be Ulis by averaging around 11 ppg.

You might be right about that, I hope he is more aggressive scoring the ball next year because he has the ability to.

 

[jrpross]

I think Poythress will be higher in points. Poy will be counted on to score more this year than the last 2. If he only averages .3 more per game than Lee were in trouble.

 

[Blueisbest]

I look for Poythress to average about 10-12 ppg and Willis to average a little closer to 6 ppg.

If he could just dribble that would take his game to another level; I would love to see him develop a mid- range game.

 

[wildcatdonf]

Ahem ......... could you please post the winning Mega Millions numbers? That is the only way I can retire is to hit that thing.

If our best rebounder is 7.2 RPG than i would be worried. Skal will need to step up big and get close to 10 rpg. I'm hoping he'll get as close as Davis in terms of controlling the board.

I think we'll have three double digit scorer. Either Ulis or Poythress.

I think Mulder's number will be lower and Mathews number will be higher.

I have no idea how Lee will develop, so much potential but i haven't seen him really develop his ability.

You make some good points, I feel we have 3 or 4 guys that will be high level rebounders, so that's why I predict the top average would be a little over 7, I think we should be a more balanced rebounding team this year.

 

[Blueathletics]

If Poy can get around 15 and 8, we'll be in business

 

[bucsrule8872]

My guess:

Labissiere- 13-14ppg
Briscoe- 12-13ppg
Ulis- 10-11ppg
Poythress- 9-10ppg
Mulder- 7-8ppg
Lee- 6-7ppg
Matthews- 4-5ppg
Hawkins- 2-3ppg
Willis- 1-2ppg
Total- 64-73ppg

 

[cal=8]

Poythress .. 14 and 8 boards per game..

 

[hangin#8]

I'm going to break the team into groups of three.

First off, we need Skal, Poythress, and Lee to combine for 35 points and 25 rebounds a night in some combination. This should be pretty easy if one of the three can go for a double double in each game.

The second three of Ulis, Briscoe, and Mulder need to combine for 30 points, with at least 3 triples and 8-10 assists. Once again, seems pretty attainable.

The third three of Matthews, Hawkins, and Willis, needs 6 points per game. I look for most of this to come from Matthews.

If we hit these benchmarks, we'd average around 71 points and probably be a pretty dang good team. I didn't feel like any of these were unrealistic goals, other than maybe the 35 front court points maybe being a little lofty.

 

[stuway]

I expect both Poy and Ulis to average double figures

Just realized my math and my predictions are ridiculous. Oh well. Excited for next yer. Obviously I am factoring Vick into the equation. Can never have too many athletes. We need bodies for practice and potential injuries
