The key point here is that story points are relative, but also they do not map linearly, quadratically or otherwise to time.

Also just because a team can complete 45 story points average does not mean they can do 3, 13 point stories an 8 and a 1 because you need too measure the maximum point story that a team can complete in a sprint, again this will be team specific and sprint length specific, so measure that too, any stories above this level MUST be broken down as they not not scoped, or understood enough to be done within one sprint....
