I also think Paul Pierce may win the scoring title. I haven't seen him mentioned yet. With Ray and KG already bickering at each other, Pierce may be the leader that ends up holding the team down and getting the ball in the crunch-time.

Wouldn't his points average go way DOWN with the team adding two more prime scoring options? He was a one man show for so long, you'd expect his average to go down 4-5 PPG, IMO.

As for the Rockets, Adelman's whole system revolves around moving the ball and sharing it. Me-Mac is not a sharer and I think will be in Adelman's doghouse rather quickly. People forget Ming averaged 25ppg last season too and I think he's in line for an MVP type season if he's healthy. McGrady is not the centerpiece of that team anymore. Culturally in America he may be, but in terms of basketball he simply is not - Yao is.
I sort of agree Michael Redd could go off but he is so one dimensional and has a history of injuries as well. One two week shooting slump and he has no chance to score 30ppg, IMHO.
The only legit threats to the scoring title IMHO other than Kobe and Gilbert are LeBron and Melo. Wade is injured, McGrady's back ain't holding up anyway, Redd is one dimensional (plus he has no spider-man tattoos), etc etc etc...

as for his teammates, VC and RJ are not in the same stratosphere as Amare, Marion, and Barbosa, not to mention Bell in terms of teammates who make shots for you off your assist attempt.
IMO Chris Paul and Deron Williams would threaten, if not overtake Nash if Nash has an off-year or gets injured:hide:

They can all be good PG's but none of them pass like Nash or control the game like he does (except maybe Kidd, but he's hurt).
Also, Kidd won 5 assists titles in 6 years before Nash won the last three. The year he didn't win, Andre Miller won (and I think Kidd was hurt that year).
