Projected stats for main players this year

[tk76]

I admit I am feeling a little bored, so am trying to manufacture a discussion...

For these key players, what do you see their productivity being? Assume the totals will be a bit more than the team average, since most players miss a few games.

Here are last years stats:
Miller 17/4/7
Iguodala 20/5.4/4.8
Young 8/4/1
Sam 10.5/10.4 2.3 blks
Lou 11.5/2/3
WG 12.5/2.5/2
Evans 5/7.5
Brand ('06-07) 20.5/9.3/3 2.2 blks

also- what other changes (less minutes, better FG% etc)
I left out Speights and Smith because there minutes are up in the air.

Miller 17/4/7>>>>>>>>>>>>>13.5/3.5/8.5
lower FG%(more jumpers less post up), Assts would be more with better shooters

Iguodala 20/5.4/4.8>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>18.5/4.5/6.5
A Roy like role. Better FG% and more FT's/efficient scoring. Still will score a lot because Thad still a year away from being the #2 scorer

Young 8/4/1 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 13/6/2.5
much less FG% and slightly less reb due to position. in 2-3 years the FG% will be back up and ghe will be the #2 score at 18+ ppg. This will be a transitional year- hopefully better at the end than the beginning. Will have some 25+ pt nights when he is on.

Sam 10.5/10.4 2.3 blks >>>>>>>>>>>>>> 12/9/ 2.6 blks
He could shoot over 60% and still score 10 ppg if he stays around the hoop. Brand should open up easy scoring and shotblocking opportunities, but cut into rebounds

Lou 11.5/2/3 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 13/2.5/3.5
Not a huge jump, but more threes and more efficient play. Won't need to create as much for himself. Will often be at SG, otherwise could rack up the assists with Brand and Speights finishing off his drives.

WG 12.5/2.5/2 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 5/1/1
I just don't see where he gets the minutes. A good option of the bench- and may be used heavily against certain match-ups (smaller SG's like DWade.) Traded if poss

Evans 5/7.5 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 3/4
See WG. If Speights and Smith step up Evans may get a bunch of DNP's in the 2nd half of the season. will have his moments when a nutcracker is needed.

Brand ('06-07) 20.5/9.3/3 2.2 blks >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 18/9.5/3.8 1.8 blocks
Should be a perfect fit. Won't have t score 20+ ppg like he had to on the Clipps, but the offennse will be run through Brand. Lots of assists and "hockey" 2 pass assists

Miller will slide back to his career average of 14 or so and that's not a bad thing. Thad sees a spike in his scoring and rebounding. Willie Green's scoring goes way down.

Iggy breaks out, his stats may not change all that much, but he will become more efficient and shoot closer to 48%.

[Sandalf42]

Everybody will become more efficient. The biggest beneficiary of Elton Brand coming here will be Iggy. To predict the exact #s is difficult because no one's sure to what extent Brand will effect this team.
