I expect nothing...then avoid disappointments...when someone says nobody can say a bad thing about Olshey….hey...I had an answer

 

Anybody who doesn't think it's a bad move to let Ed walk or think Swanigan can provide what Ed provided is underappreciating him, in my opinion. Nobody can really replicate what Ed brought to the table, and it was extremely valuable.

 

yoga and tai chi....I recommend it...stick to basketball...snark ain't your strong suit...

 

Yeah, I always thought he was a GOOD shooter, much better than average from in close. Most guys his size were blocked or intimidated, but his well-guarded 6-footers sailed through opponents'
arms right into the hoop.

 

Don't get me started FAMS.

 

Olshey said he was on the phone as Davis got his Nets offer, and influenced Davis to accept this very first offer. So Olshey had a much lower opinion of him than we do.

 

you started long ago...it's the stop function that needs fixin'

 

could be...I don't get that impression

 

Says Mr. Trigger Happy.

 

Gun control...yeah let's have that debate...or I can give you a reading list...that's one happy Trigger

 

Agreed, but hopefully Swanigan can come close--or maybe he'll bring something different to the table that Ed wasn't able to do? Only time will tell. Neil has said how much Ed mattered to this team.

 

We'll see BonesJones. The Warriors won the title without Ed Davis so it can be done.

 

Lmao.

 

We need guys that can finish inside. Swanigan isn't that guy, Ed was. We need balance, but it was seems like were stocking up on way too many 3pt shooters.

 

Well when you finish only 16th in the league in made threes per game you need to make some adjustments. Sucks it was Ed that had to take the fall.

 

Required KD, Curry, Green, and Klay to overcome the absence of Ed Davis.

 

Well done KingSpeed, that made me laugh out loud.

 

Well maybe he can be that guy who can finish inside. Same standing reach as Ed and 3 " longer wing span. So it is not his length that is the issue. It's possible that he just needed time to adjust to taller players? You never know....

 

yeah...and the fact he played about 5 minutes last season compared to Ed playing for 4 franchises and matching up against every big in the league game after game for years…..let's compare the rookie and his lack of experience fairly if we compare them..Swanigan has a 3 pt shot as well...It's like Chief....he has the wingspan of Nurk….people forget how long he really is and how quick he is.

 

I don't want to bag on Ed because he was one of my favorite players, but he was a liability at the free throw line at the end of games. But damn he brought it every night. Can Caleb become mentally tough? Again I think he has it in him do so. He has been through a lot.
