As most would guess, the KD Warriors had this, with 2016-17 being an interesting year to look at. Curry had 25.3, Durant 25.1, and Klay 22. That team was first in Offensive rating and average 116 points per game. I dont think the Pels do that, but even if they do, look at the next guys in scoring on that team:
Draymond - 10.2
Iggy - 7.6
Nobody else above 7ppg. Ian Clark was actually their 5th leading scorer at 6.8 per game!
Now, the Pels will have Jonas too. Unless CJ sacrifices big time, how does anybody else average double digits? I don't know how Herb gets more than 6 shots a game, and think it will be closer to 4.5 or 5. I think we are looking at a 7ppg player, which should deflate his FA market. I dont care how good you are on D, you aren't getting huge money averaging 7ppg.
