Hood, Draymond, and Whiteside combined for 32.2 PPG last year. That's all I'm going to say about this matter.
LOL at everyone here who thinks Rodney Hood isn't a starting caliber play next year.
Dude shots 46% and 42% from the field and 3 point land respectively after the All-Star break when he finally got healthy.
In the last month of the season, where Hayward was sitting games, Hood assumed more playmaking responsibility and had a stat line of 16.7 ppg with 3.4 rebounds and 3.4 assist.
Cys team trash tbh. Shoulda traded for Middleton.
You are such a dumb ****.
For one thing, Hood and Whiteside hardly played the first half of the season, so their stats are skewed. Look at there stats when getting starting minutes.
Hood = 12.7 ppg as a starter
Whiteside = 13.7 ppg as a starter
Green = 11.7 ppg
That is 38.4 ppg.
That is from last year too. Hood was a rookie, Green was a first year starter, and Whiteside was a first year starter. All those players will probably mature and get better next year.
So take your stupid ******* argument somewhere else.
Alec Burks averaged 13.9 PPG, 4.2 RPG, and 3 APG on 38.2% from three when Hayward wasn't sitting.
If its an all time Jazz team, it makes more sense to use their best season with the Jazz, not with other teams. Otherwise guys like Gail Goodrich get drafted way too high.
Here is my final line-up. I have had a few messages about trades but nothing that I think really helped my team enough to pursue it (sorry WC).
PG – Tony Parker; Jose Calderon
SG – Andrew Wiggins; J.R. Smith
SF – Jeff Green; Michael Kidd-Gilchrist
PF – Blake Griffin; Taj Gibson
C – Dwight Howard; Al Jefferson
Veteran leadership, top 3 PG and C, strong defensive presence on both 1st and 2nd teams, as well as top-notch outside shooting on both squads. Can mix and match. Ready to rumble!
Glad the only guy on the forum with less Bball IQ than WC speaks up.
Stick to general forum.
Congrats.
The team was also losing a **** ton of games during that period.
