I totally agree. I wish I could say I expect the team to average 82 or something because I really think Rhoden, Molsen, and Ike have the ability to break out in certain games, but I just don’t think it’ll happen at the same time often enough that it lifts their averages. Maybe one game you play against a pipsqueak Center and Ike throws down 3 lobs and hits a free throw, maybe one game molson gets hot from 3 and rains a couple down to finish with 15 points that game, maybe Rhoden is feeling particularly springy and gets some extra transition buckets and goes for 14 points in a game.
(edit: below this mark is something I apparently pulled from thin air because it doesn’t check out at all. I swear I heard something to this extent on a CBB podcast, but I must be terribly misremembering the details of it. I’m leaving it here for posterity lol)
I just don’t see it happening consistently since on average, very few teams a year have 3+ 10ppg+ players, although those that do tend to be really good.
