Who will lead the Jazz in scoring next season

[HipHopAnonymous]

Is there really a clear cut guy?

 

[Dr. Jones]

No clear cut guy.

Hayward, Kanter, Burks/Favors.. my order.

 

[jope]

gun to head -> hayward. otherwise i'd say its a crapshoot, where we will likely see 3 or 4 guys averaging about the same amount of points

 

[Scorpjazz]

Hayward, 24ppg this year, book it..

 

[Harambe]

Why is ElRoach0 not on the board? I'm pretty sure I got this.

 

[default]

I'm guessing Hayward at about 17-18 per game but that we have several people in double digits.

 

[kyjazzfan]

My sleeper would be Burks since he's probably the most natural and aggressive scorer we have. Especially if he plays mostly at SG rather than PG.

 

[Magic Spray]

Hayward, 24ppg this year, book it..

As Kenny Smith puts it, Hayward will be a "looter in a riot."

 

[Cope]

WOW! I'm the only one that voted Kanter?


I can see us running the offense through him on the low block. Pending any injuries and he comes back healthy, I can see Kanter averaging 17 PPG. I think this leads us. I think there is a chance our entire starting lineup averages double digits though.

I think it Hayward, in the final interview of last season the Jazz basically told him that this is his team now. He needs to man up and be the leader.

 

[Tony]

Voted Favors. Because Burke.

 

[Dr. Jones]

I think Hayward gets more shots. My take is Kanter will be just behind Hayward and will only eclipse Hayward's numbers if Hayward shoots it poorly.

 

[Beantown]

I think with Hayward playing more and having more touches should equal about 5 more points per game. Which will have him leading at around 19 ppg.

Kanter around: 13-15

Favors around: 15-17

Or if Hayward decides "leader" means distributor.

 

[Dr. Jones]

Or if Hayward decides "leader" means distributor.

That could be great... without Hayward looking to score 15+ we get Wiggins.

 

[Beantown]

Or if Hayward decides "leader" means distributor.

Meh, he's not the playmaker I thought he would become. He still struggles with that aspect of his game.


Shouldn't your name now be Core5 or Core6?

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Hayward.

I think he will be around 18 per game.

 

[franklin]

Kanter, easily. Look at last year's per 36 for clues: 17.4 for Hayward, 16.9 for Kanter.

Kanter is way more raw and will improve the most.

Corbin clearly kept the Alfense intact to make a seamless transition for Kanter manning the post and high post. He will get a ton of Jefferson's looks.

Kanter 19.8, Hayward 18.2, Favors 15.6 (on 58% shooting), Burke 10.1, Burks 14.3, Evans 5.4, Rush 10.3

I voted Favors. I just don't see a non-big guy leading the Jazz in scoring. I don't think it's happened more than once in the last 25 years.

 

[Hotdog]

I voted Burks.

Although I could see any of the core4 doing it.


I wish thread makers would make polls public.
