Ripper I'd rip you to shreds, but I've already done that several times before.

Not sure, but he's an uber mobile defender in the mold of Russell, Olajuwon, KG. Probably won't be as good defensively as Russ or offensively as Hakeem, but I think he'll be a similar kind of player stylistically.

A lot depends on how good HE really wants to be and what's going on between the ears.

Physical gifts = whoa.

Really high. He shouldn't still be this far under the radar.

Would be interesting to hear wailua's thoughts, I know he's super high on AD as well.

BTW he has to be a lock for Kobe's replacement at the ASG, right? Dragic and Cousins have been great, but Davis is just a next level player, and the game's in his city, for chrissake.

He's got the potential to be a Tim Duncan type of player. A defensive stalwart with a fundamental, efficient offensive game.

I've been watching him a lot this season. If I had to predict his career I'd guess he will be a 22/12 guy, DPOY caliber defender, more than a few NBA 1st teams. He reminds me of Garnett.

I blame the NBA for not having him in a market that people care about.

So he'll leave when his best basketball years are behind him and try and get a ring when he is old?
