I think Rondo averaging 8 assists a game should be a given. If he doesnt that will be a shock to me.

Not saying he can't do it, all I'm saying is that in Doc Rivers' offense, the PG's don't get to showcase their skills.

I wouldnt be surprised if all of the above occurred.
Though it would be tough for KG and Perk to get 12 and 8 respectively.
1. KG has led the NBA in rebs 3 straight years, at over 12 RPG plus, and he played in the Western Conference, he should have no problem getting a rebound over Antawn Jamison, though Dwight may pose a problem.
2. Allen and Pierce will be open the most that they have been in their combined 20+ years in the league (discounting All-Star Games of course). The may not score 20 every game but depending they will and should be at/around 20 barring unforeseen circumstances.
3. Rondo is not a shooter and will look to distribute to PP RayRay or KG before he will even think about thinking about taking a contested shot. If the stars hit their shots Rondo will rack up the assists. With Rondo PP and KG I think that team wise we will lead the NBA in Triple-doubles .
4. If he stays out of foul trouble he Big Perk will snatch a lot of rebounds, I think if he and KG can build some rapport under the rim they will help each other a lot.

I think Allen, and Pierce will score 20+ a game more often. However, I would like to see Rondo get 8+ assists more often.

Its very important for Rajon to have a steady jumper. If he's clanking shots, teams will not only lay off him, but they'll start to leave him open and double up on either RAllen or Pierce. By knocking down jumpers consistently, teams cannot afford to leave Rajon open.

My oppinion is kind of that Kevin will grab 12+ rebounds for sure, P34 and Ray-Ray will both hit a 20+ points a game for sure, and Rondo also for sure will pass above 8 assists a game. I think they all gonna be with something like that. Kevin Garnett - 22p. 12r. 4a. 2b. per game Paul Pierce - 26p. 6r. 4a. 2s. per game Ray Allen - 25p. 4r. 4a. 2s. per game Rajon Rondo - 10p. 4r. 9a. 3s. per game Kendric Prekins -9p. 10r. 1a. 2b. per game Tony Allen - 15p. 4r. 5a. 2s. per game

I think: KG 22ppg PP 23 ppg Ray 21 ppg Rondo 12 ppg Perk 8 ppg Allen 11 ppg Is more realistic, but still a little high for 6 players at 97 ppg.

I think 10 ppg for Rondo is too high i want from him only good asisst(more and more :} ) and from Perk rebounds and blocks ... if they combine for 10-15 points will be nice ....

I picked kg to get 12 rebs a game. The rebounding depth appears to be quite limited. KG, Perkins, then Powe, Scalabrine, and Glen Davis. Celtics need to beef up a little.

I picked KG and his 12 rpg because he has been a beast off the glass for so long it's almost as reliable as the sun rising in the East.
Rondo getting 8+ assists may be tough only because Pierce, KG and Allen all averaged 4+ assists per game last year. I can see this team being similar to our team in the 80s where no one person was the predominant ball handler, but rather ball handling duties were shared. I can see several people around the 5 assist mark.

Hmmm... being in the East, maybe I underestimated KG's rebounding total. Maybe he may average 14 rpg, considering the amount of prime big men in the east is less than the amount in the west. Last season, there were 5 guys averaging double digits in rebounding, in the west (2 above 12 rpg). In the east, only 2 (not counting Jefferson--I guess he didn't qualify).

I think that if we .... oops I mean when we win the Atlantic and go to playoffs with 50+ wins Kevin Garnett will get the MVP for the regular season. Yeah I love P34 very much but what we can do, we're in the East, KG will score 22-23 points per game, grab 13 maybe 14 rebounds per game like someone tell above me, he also pass 4 assists with guys like P34 and Ray-Ray around him, he block at least 2 shots per game and do 1,5 steals per game. He will be e a very big "Beast in the East", I mean for him it will be not that tough in East thare are not much big men in the East. Well who, Chris Bosh, Dwight Howard, Eddy Curry, Zach Randoph, Jermaine O'Neal will no more around if he might go to the Lakers and and than who else.... they are very few for him and they are good players but not a players like KG level
