Agreed Frank ... right now I suspect once is probably never coming with these two. Again, history shows that high quality players progress significantly in their second year. Len was a whiff, Chriss and Bender are looking to be too. Cross our fingers that Jackson pans out but he's gonna be behind TJ Warren.
You might be the only 2 people on the planet who write players off at their respective ages. How many current stars would actually pass you all's expectations? I' guessing maybe 3 or 4. The rest would've moved for average vet role players like Rubio.
Nearly every star player passes my expectation of scoring at a decent rate by their second season. You might be the only person who just refuses to the look at the numbers. That's your problem not mine. But just to give you one more chance to look at it again here is a list of active players who have averaged at least 12 points/game in one of their first two seasons. And contrary to your beliefs, it is loaded, yes loaded, with current star players. Well, except for Chriss, Bender, and Len.

There are also some damn good players on the list of players who scored below 12 ppg in their 2nd seasons. http://bkref.com/tiny/I93Ns
