An entirely too early minutes breakdown... tear it apart

[C_note]

Taking into account the fact that we tanked heavily last year is a pretty huge factor for me when projecting minutes...

Why take that into account?

The fact that a second rounder got 11.1 minutes a game over 56 minutes is... a fact. We tanked for part of the year, but lots of stuff happened last year. That Billups gave a second rounder that many minutes is a pretty good indicator that 12 minutes a game for a first rounder is within the realm of possibilities, and I don't think nitpicking the we tanked last year, or that Eubanks stayed healthy, or that it rained a hundred days makes any kind of difference to the main point.

Well I guess I just see it differently.
And that’s just fine.
I feel taking stats and minutes played from a tanking season is a fruitless effort.

Fair enough, dude.

Jabari Walker played 11.1 minutes a game last year in 56 games, and he wasn't a first rounder.

Twelve minutes a game is definitely no guarantee, but it definitely seems possible.

In a season that we threw the towel in half way thru?

Deductive reasoning is not your strong suit...

Acknowledging basketball talent on a professional roster definitely isn’t yours.
