Best case, worst case, and most likely scenarios for Kobe, Rose, Wade this season?

What do you think? :confusedshrug:

What do you think? :confusedshrug:

They either lead their team to their titles with MVP seasons, and FMVP's, or they suffer career-ending injuries early on.

Obviously they all have to be healthy. And with those three, that is a huge question mark. I suspect that both Kobe and Wade are on a severe decline, while Rose is still young enough to rebound back with a quality season. The Bulls might be the best team in the East, but I don't think they beat the better teams in the West.

Rose would have the best case scenario, while I think it would be miraculous if either Kobe, or Wade, bounce back with anything near their peaks.

Best cases:


Kobe: 18/5/4 on 43% fg miss playoffs again but absolved of blame as always

Wade 20/5/5 on 50% fg and lose in the 2nd round

Derrick Rose 21/6/4 on 45% fg and granted a quick mercy at the hands of LeBron in the playoffs


Worst case:

Injuries for all, and they retire end of this season

[GrapeApe]

Best case:

Kobe 25/5/6 46%
Wade 24/6/5 50%
Rose 24/8/4 45%

Most likely:

Kobe 23/4/5 43%
Wade 21/5/5 48%
Rose I honestly have no clue, I'll say 20/6/4 42%

I think we all know the worst case scenarios for those guys.

[Smook A.]

Kobe Bryant
Best Case: 27/5/4
Worst Case: 20/4/3
Most Likely: 24/4/4

Derrick Rose
Best Case: 23/7/4
Worst Case: 16/4/3
Most Likely: 20/6/3

Dwyane Wade
Best Case: 22/5/5
Worst Case: 19/5/4
Most Likely: 21/5/5

-As I've said before, I think at the start of the season Kobe will struggle a little. I see that happening because he hasn't played in a long time. When he starts to get into his groove, he'll play like an all-star again

-Rose's best case scenario would be the type of season he had when he won the MVP award. Or at least close to it. Like I said for Kobe, I think Rose will also struggle at the start. After a while (a few weeks or a month), he'll start playing at an all-star level.

-Wade is going to be without LeBron so he'll definitely get more touches. I don't think he'll be scoring less than 20 ppg next season.

What are you all thinking in terms of games played and minutes per game for these guys?

Best cases:


Kobe: 18/5/4 on 43% fg miss playoffs again but absolved of blame as always

Wade 20/5/5 on 50% fg and lose in the 2nd round

Derrick Rose 21/6/4 on 45% fg and granted a quick mercy at the hands of LeBron in the playoffs


Worst case:

Injuries for all, and they retire end of this season
Wade has never shot 50 percent without Lebron by his side, and he certainly isn't going to start now. Defenses will actually be keying in on him this season. :lol
I'm thinking Wade will average 20/5/5 on 45%

I'm thinking Rose & Kobe will play 65-75 games. Wade will probably play around 60.

As for minutes...
Kobe - 35 mpg
Wade - 32 mpg
Rose - 36 mpg

Doesn't sound that bad. Maybe a bit optimistic, but I'd sign up for that right now.

Rose is playing 40 a game.


Thibs.

[BigTicket]

I don't think the stats really matter for these three, what matters is staying healthy. If they can do that, they will make the All-Star team.

Fair enough, but I think a 10% drop in FG% is unlikely. Wade's career low is 46.5% as a rookie and he averaged near 49% in the 7 years prior to LeBron's arrival. Even with defenses keyed on him he's still a smart player who rarely forces the issue. 50% will be tough but not entirely unreasonable.

[stalkerforlife]

Kobe's best case - 29ppg, 6rpg, 5 apg, 49%, 38%, 90%. Worst case - 24ppg, 5rpg, 4apg, 45%, 33%, 85%.

Team wise for Kobe...Best case - Title. Worst case - playoffs.

They will all make the all star team regardless....

Seriously.

[SwayDizzle]

Most likely scenario for Kobe = Title
Most likely scenario for Wade = Retirement
Most likely scenario for Rose = Mediocrity

[ZeN]

Most likely scenario for Kobe = Title


Not sure if serious.
