    Needs his own thread. He bothered AD. Was a one man show on the boards. I like plumlee but davis is more of a difference maker IMO.

    Davis has been a steal.

    Yeah Meyers better watch out, cause Ed may take his place in the starting lineup...then again he seems to play well off the bench.

    After CJ, I thought Davis had the most impressive performance of the night - love him on the boards!

    I think Davis is best suited off the bench. He wrecks opposing teams benches and holds his own against starters so he gives Nards and Plums rest at any point.

    is fucking awesome.

    Can't believe the L*kers let him get away. Maybe they'll clue in when we play them and Ed outrebounds their front line.

    If anything, he's supplanting Plumlee.

    I don't mind him coming off the bench. Just play him a bunch of minutes and close with who is playing well that day.

    I have always loved Davis, so when I saw we got him, I knew he was gonna do good things.

    But, I always reserve absolutes for a couple months, so lets hope he keeps it up. I -think- he can, but there's still doubts for the sake of doubts.

    Just do it this way:

    Nards (28) / Vonleh (15) / Davis (5)
    Plums (27) / Davis (21)

    Even if he never improves, with the salary cap moving up, it's a pretty safe bet to say his contract is a steal.

    I don't disagree. Just thought the quote and timing was LOL quality if it was serious.

    He didn't do anything different than last year in LA. He's found himself as a player.
