Udoh wasn’t featured much this year but he showed some promise.  I really hope that the Warriors finally realize that Biedrins is crap and start Udoh over him the whole season.  

If he starts next year:

10-12 points, 7-9 boards, 2-3 blocks a game

 Udoh has at the very least proved he can be a very good shot blocker at the NBA level.  I think you’re right about him blocking 2-3 shots next season even in a non starting role playing around 25 mpg, but I don’t think he is a 7-9 rebound a game guy next season and those points might be a little high too.  He showed major inconsistancy in his game this year, like many young players I think those kinks in his game will take time to work out and for next season I see him at about 7 ppg 5.5 rpg and 2.5 bpg in 25 minutes.

 I think your scoring average for both these guys are low especially favors.  both of them will be a bigger part of Utahs offense next year. I would say around 15 a game for the both of them.

[JoeWolf1]

 ^ You think lukestine13?

I disagree, how do you figure Favors will get 15 points with Milsap, Jefferson and AK47 all being more capable post scorers and Favors is still raw on offense and didn’t even average 15 points a game in college.  I agree more with franfran as far as Favor’s offensive production.

Umm… not all rookies make great strides in their second years. Often times, the same flaws that hindered them as rookies held them back in years going forward. You know, Eric Bledsoe isn’t magically going to learn how to play turnover-free basketball overnight. Aminu and Paul George need to learn how to shoot. Lance Stephenson might want to grow up and not throw a woman down a flight of stairs and be a tool of a teammate. Ekpe Udoh, DeMarcus Cousins, and Cole Aldrich might try to learn how to operate defensively without fouling. Big things like that matter.

Forgot Hassan Whiteside was in the league, I have deandre jordan size hopes for him.

They call him franfran, franfran,

master of statistical embellishments,

no one you see, makes less sense than he,

and we know franfran, 

lives in a world full of wonder,

and we will see him, making expectations obscene!

 

Sorry franfran, I actually thought your list was not bad for the most part, but your posts always leave me imagining you either talk like Balki from "Perfect Strangers" or Borat. But, I agree with BTPH, not every player has a big sophomore upgrade, and surely not all of those players will either. Griffin and Wall should improve, and other should maybe get a little more responsibility, but I do not see all those being overly realistic.

My second thing is, the Flipper song makes me sad ever since I saw "the Cove". Hope you are happy you inspired this poor satirical theme song, franfran!

 

 

On a separate note, I think the Thunder should trade Russell Westbrook for Flipper. He would work much better with Kevin Durant.
