Points needed dependent on games played over the last 7.

Only 1 game played: needs to get to 50 points.
Play in 2: average 35ppg
Play in 3: average 30ppg
Play in 4: average 27.5ppg
Play in 5: average 26ppg
Play in 6: average 25ppg
Play in 7: average 24.3ppg

Baring injury, I would assume F-Wager plays in all 7 games. So: he would need to average 24.3ppg over those seven. I count 15 games he has exceeded 24 points (and three more at 24 points).


p.s. if Banchero fails to score another NBA point this season, he will still exceed 20.00 ppg !
(He was at 19.96 ppg last year)

Should we care about this?

In any case, seems unlikely that he'll average 25+ from here on out, though it is possible.

Gonna start a SOUL dating Jessica Alba tracker with the same probability!!

Yeah...this isn't a thing.

I'd also add that Franz can shoot. He'll be fine but maybe does have to "undo" some work that was done on his shot. I remember that he wasn't touted as much of a shooter coming in and TRoss, in a preseason interview, talked about how great a shooter Franz was. My vision is Franz settling in for a reliable career average of 17 or 18 ppg, 4.5 rpg, 4.5 apg - all done efficiently. A guard not yet on the team will be the second-leading scorer, but not necessarily as impactful overall as Franz or the 4th leading scorer (Suggs)...I just really think that's Franz' best spot...more than able to take over occasional games, but reliably contributing in many ways, on both ends. Paolo's a different animal - he will lead this team in scoring for a decade (unless we don't get him any backcourt help and he demands a trade )...mix in Isaac and the rest and that's a contender before long.

IMO, Franz is more Pippen than Jordan, more Hedo than Dwight...and that's a really good thing.

I want him to average 20 so I'm down with this tracker

1 ) Is she single?

2) That's giving him some good odds I say. It's not like Franz never scored 24 in his career.

Could we start with a "F-Wagner passable outside shot Tracker" first? That thing is coming out flat and fiery.

Wow, I rarely bother to lookup individual stats and was thinking he is still close to Paolo, somewhere above 21 pts/game. Sadly, he is averaging 16 pts/game since All Star break. On a bright side, his defense was noticeably better in that period.

I don't really know what y'all are talking about.

Franz is shooting 50% from 3PT in April

Well no thanks to soul I have confirmed that Jessica Alba is in fact married with children. Time does fly.

So now i'm just not seeing the correlation here. Is this SOUL way of saying that Franz has no chance to hit 20.00 ppg?

Or does @drsd have a better chance at Jessica Alba then I think?

Too bad she doesn't do a lot of movies anymore since she made a fortune with her startup company.

This season: he has been at or above 24-points 18 times.


As there are 7-games left, I looked at a sliding window of 7 games. The red line is where F-Wagner aveaged more than the 24.3 ppg he needs to get to 20.00 ppg this season.

Interesting the rhythm of his scoring. Indeed it is the lack of the most recent expected hill that is why he is not currently at 20.00 ppg.
The punchline though is that F-Wagner has had 7-game runs this season with an above 24.3 ppg average.

If he gets 32 tonight, I'll tune back in. Fingers crossed.

I don’t think he will make it back to 20 ppg this season.

Next season, sure.

I wonder how many more games we would have won if Franz simply shot his career average from 3 this season. Kind of spooky to think about.

I thought his 3-ball was coming out of his hands a little better last night. Not as flat as in some games.

After the 24 pointer on game 1:

What is the significance of 20 ppg mark today? Other than being a nice, rounded number.

The most significant thing I got from this was that Franz is dating Jessica Alba.
