Towns is a Huge Disappointment

[Carlos Danger]

Just thought I'd get this in queue in case he has a bad first game :-)

This is outrageous Carlos! I'm pretty sure you have to wait until after the 2nd bad game. It's in the CBA or something. Check out Larry's FAQ.

Brandon Jennings scored 55 points in his 7th game in the league. If Towns doesn't match that it's safe to say he sucks.

On this team if Towns can simply make it to Christmas without a season ending injury he'll have to be considered a success.

Will he be able to match is college numbers?

I'm not sure. I think 10 points and 7 rebounds per game is about what I expect from a rookie Towns. Not sure if he gets 2.3 blocks per game though. In time Towns will be a great defender, I'm not sure he will be great as a rookie though.

I think Towns will be limited by fouls his first year. He will have to to be effective without fouling.

Interesting thoughts guys. Honestly...I might be disappointed for real if he puts up 10/7 a game. I mean...that's not much better than Adrian Payne was doing was it? I'm hoping he's a little higher than that - especially on offense. But maybe my expectations are too high - not sure. What do others think?

Shaq, Dwight, Duncan, dream, David Robinson, Ewing, horford,kg,aldrige,bynum etc... I expect to read about their stats/numbers/advance stats/ per 48/ win shares and other metrics being used to compare to towns and how he stacked up to them and if he will be a disappointment or not 20 games into the season.
