Were going to take a look around the league and predict some guys who just had excellent sims who will taper off over the next set of sims. Everyone knows what happens when you play a few games and have big time stats that you hope that players can keep it up.
Josh Selby:
28.1 Points a game.
It's quite obvious as to why he is on this list, it's the scoring. The Bucks have gone through a retooling phase and have handed over the keys to Selby for it to be his team. Gone are the Melo's and the Bargnani's and Billups is at the end of his career. Looking at the roster he is averaging 28/6/5 thus far in seven games. Selby doesn't have great outside shooting and has gotten to the line six times a game. We feel that he is going to come back down to earth and finish with about 21 points a game when it's all said and done.
Pavel Podkolzin*
13 Boards a game
Pavel has never really gotten this many minutes as he has with the Nuggets, but there is no reason to believe he can keep this up. Averaging 18 points and 13 boards a game for the 4-5 Nuggets, Pavel's biggest asset is his size. He has no coordination nor skills really, evident by his abysmal shooting percentages. We also don't think he can keep this up because of a an accidental depth chart in which Melo and Griffin didn't play.
Taurean Green
11.8 assists a game
The Cavaliers finally are off to a good start and that is thanks to the scoring of Vince Carter and Gilbert Arenas. However the man that is orchestrating the entire show is Taurean Green. Green is keeping the opposing defense honest by setting his teammates in stride and knocking down the outside shot. This is allowing the team to get open looks and Green is hitting them. The reason we don't believe that he can keep this up is because Gilbert tends to love holding onto the ball.
LeBron James
29-9-9
Flash in the pan or is it? We honestly believe that we can be looking at the first player in this leagues history to really flirt with the triple double for the entire season. The Celtics have had a historic run over the past few years taking down the hardware a bunch of times. However the years finally caught up to the Celtics and that is evident by the team now. LeBron doesn't have one other legit starter on the entire team, let alone the starting lineup. James is projected to shoot about a million three pointers and literally has to do everything himself. The points are a given, the assist are so close but hard to come by because the lack of talent and as long as their is a lack of talent there will be missed shots for him to grab. The entire team is essentially playing for contracts and that includes LeBron. Just imagine what he could get on the open market if their was no limit to how much you can offer.
