Just going with what basketballreference.com projects for these guys:
Favors 14.9 ppg, 10.9 rpg, 2.3 bpg
Kanter 16 ppg, 10.4 ppg
Hayward 16.2 ppg, 4.1 rpg, 3.6 apg
Burks 15.2 ppg, 5 rpg, 2.8 apg
Burke will score some, and the bench will be pretty bad, but I expect the original C4 to be pretty close to those numbers. Pretty evenly balanced. I could see Hayward score at a little higher pace than that, as he was 1 ppg higher than that last season. If they get minutes, I see no reason why all of these guys can't reach this level this season, and improve from there.
Having four players each average over 15ppg is extremely rare. I don't think any team did it this year. Do we really expect something like that do be accomplished by a bunch of first time starters? Maybe a few years down the road, but not next season.
