Leon Powe didn't average it. He did it in one game, against the grizzlies. And he is recovering from a simultaneous ACL tear (his second major knee injury) and microfracture. As a celtics fan, I like the guy. But, unfortunately, I doubt he will be anywhere near the player he was in the past, given how his explosiveness was so important given his lack of height.
Personally, I still like the celtics in the east. They weren't that far out of contention last year, and this year they will have Garnett back, a decent back up C in Sheed, and finally someone to back up Pierce at the 3.
In the east, I think the lakers are still the team to beat but I think Ariza at this point was a better fit than Artest.
