Bobcats by the numbers: 62.4

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.

      Because Young is so historically bad that it just skews too far outside the normal deviations that perspective is easily lost. That or they just don't want to believe it.  The struggles last year would have been more about the infighting and poor roster building or idiot owner's hiring practices than with Stroud. He wouldn't have been as good but he wouldn't have been ruined here and the pressure was not Carr-esk if you take out the Young created portion from his playing style.  Dude is a young guy on a team coached by a Defensive guy building a good D but not building up the O in year 2 of his HC 1st time gig. Seems familiar... Go look at his output this year and not just some crappy Thursday night implosion game, I would take that in a second and never ever look back every time without a shred of doubt while eating 4 of those games a year with a giant smile on my face.

      Brooks has a full practice Wed

      There is zero reason to sit him if he is ready to go.  Putting him on a shelf and attempting to protect does him no favors.
