What is Meyers Leonards ceiling for this year?

[KingSpeed]

I don't know about ceiling..... but I'll tell you what I'd be happy with........ 6pts/11rebs/25 minutes

Huh? Has anyone in the history of the league averaged 11 rebounds in only 25 minutes?

Yes.

Wilt. Russell. Bellamy. Pettit. Elgin. Rodman. Unseld. Jerry Lucas. Nate Thurmond.

And then the Boerwinkle, Fortson, Gus Johnson, Dukes, etc. types.

wilt never played less than 40mpg

imo the spirit of the question was >/= 11rpg and </= 25mpg

 

[BrianFromWA]

Gotcha. Then KS is right, no one has. If you make it 26mpg/11rpg, then it's Tom Boerwinkle. If you make it 25mpg/10rpg, then you get Jayson Williams and three guys from the 50's/60's

Conservatively speaking

Maybe you misunderstood the question, mgb...they weren't asking about his cumulative season stats.

Oh, and runner up to Lillard for ROY.
