Some guys have had major dropoffs after a week of games.  Obviously there's a lot of season left, but there are some truly ugly numbers out there.  I'll start with Exhibit A and feel free to expand with your own.

Ricky Davis - LA Clippers

4 Games 2.25 PPG 21.1 FG%

Down from just under 14 PPG last year

 What about our very own Ray Allen who has averaged only 10pts this past week?That is a big drop off from his average last season of approx.17plus points... do not take it as a slam to Ray because he is one of my favorite players but sometimes you have to be fair.

ricky is a flop, he dropped 85% of his scoring hehe

The Clippers and Mike D'Antoni.

Agreed, particularly the Clips.  In their defense, they have been a bit banged up, but they haven't competed *at all* so far.  Loss by 38, blown lead and 10-point overtime loss and two spankings (22 and 16) at the hands of the Jazz sans Deron Williams...even with Baron and Marcus Camby each missing a bit of time, that's awful.  Bleh.

The Kings haven't been much better, but at least they've yet to play a home game, and three of their four road games came on or near the East Coast...so perhaps we'll see something different from them once they return to ARCO.

Haha, definitely Eddie House, but I'm sure he'll get hot real soon.  Yeah, Ricky Davis had a bad year last year and he's been horrible this year.  I disagree with D'Antoni being on this list.  In fact I love what he's doing with a horrible roster.  Love that he's not playing Marbury, and he also said Curry is going to be riding the bench, too.  Love it!

Are you talking about the same Ray Allen that scored 29 pts on Houston? ;D

I agree with others about Eddie House though.  Pick it up, Eddie!
