What are your guys predictions for the 2012-2013 Cavaliers starting rosters? I will start
I added Zeller because i figure he will be starting by the middle of the year, by the way.

Kyrie Irving-
PPG- 20.8
APG-6.7
RPG-3.2

Dion Waiters-
PPG-14.8
APG-2.4
RPG-3.2

Alonzo Gee-
PPG-12.4
APG-2.1
RPG-4.8

Tristan Thompson-
PPG-11.3
APG-0.8
RPG-9.7

Anderson Varajao-
PPG-9.5
APG-0.9
RPG-8.6

Tyler Zeller-
PPG-10.8
APG-1.6
RPG-7.8

I only did points, assists, and rebounds caused i figured everything else would take to long...so go!
 
We'll have a great record if the league allows us to start 6 players.
 
We're starting 6 people now?

I see Irving doing 20/7.5, Waiters 16 ppg, Tristan 10/7, Zeller 12/7. Andy 10/10.
 
Sorry i forgot to add i just said Zeller because i figured he would be a starter by the middle of the year...sorry
 
Irving 22 and 6 A
Waiters 11 and 3 A (I think some people on this board are going to be dissappointed)
Gee 13 and 4
TT 12 and 9
Zeller 13 and 8


6th Man Andy 11 and 10
 
Irving 22 and 6 A
Waiters 11 and 3 A (I think some people on this board are going to be dissappointed)
Gee 13 and 4
TT 12 and 9
Zeller 13 and 8


6th Man Andy 11 and 10

I think you're just going off of what you have seen in summer league for Dion... He is a much, much better offensive player than Gee and you have Gee averaging more points!

Waiters 15 pts/ 3 rebs/ 3 ast
Gee 11 pts/ 6 rebs
TT 10 pts/ 9 rebs
Zeller 12 pts/ 7 rebs
 
Kyrie: 24 Points, 7.5 Assists

Waiters: 9.5 Points, 4 Assists

Gee: 12 Points, 3.5 Assists, 5 Rebounds

TT: 8 Points, 9 Rebounds, 2 Blocks

Zeller (Starting Eventually): 13 Points, 7 Rebounds

Andy (Traded at the Deadline): 14 Points, 10 Rebounds, and a fuckload of effort.

My optimism is not very high.
 
Kyrie - 22 ppg, 7.5 apg, 4 rpg

Dion - 14.5 ppg, 3 apg, 3 rpg

Gee - 11 ppg, 2 apg, 6 rpg

TT (if he's starting) - 10 ppg, 1.5 bpg, 8 rpg

Andy - 9 ppg, 1 bpg, 10 rpg

Zeller (if he' starting) - 12 ppg, 1 bpg, 6 rpg.
 
I'll play:

KI - 18 ppg, 8 apg, 3 rpg

DWait- 12 ppg, 3 apg, 4 rpg

Azabukie - 12 ppg, 3 apg, 5 rpg (yeah, KA swinging out to the 3 to create floor space for these guys, also, Gee better scorer off bench)

AV - 9 ppg, 1 bpg, 9 rpg

Zells - 10 ppg, 1 bpg, 7 rpg
 
I think Waiters will be on the bench more then you think due to his average to below average defense.
Gee will get a lot of transition baskets and he plays better defense and has more size then Waiters. I am also assuming Gee has continued working on his jumper this off-season.
Gee is entering his third year with the team and second playing with Irving I dont think adding 2 ppg more then last year is overly optimistic. Waiters is a rookie who is an average shooter, and average defender, who will probably have an up and down rookie year. 11 PPG is a very realistic outlook. This does not mean that he can not eventually develop into an above average starting 2 Guard but I dont think he will be "that" player in 2012.

I think you're just going off of what you have seen in summer league for Dion... He is a much, much better offensive player than Gee and you have Gee averaging more points!
