There's no reason Davis can't be a really good pnr defender. Could be wrong, but it doesn't seem like he gets put in those situations very often.

Everybody attacks Lopez, which is understandable because he can't move his feet at all. The combo of Vasquez/Lopez is a problem, to say the least, trying to guard a pnr.

Definitely. But teams go after Boozer for the same reason as Lopez. Vasquez doesn't help things, but Nate Robinson isn't a great defender either.

I think the Hornets can overcome a lot of their deficiencies with a better understanding of the system Monty is running. Especially once Davis gets his sea legs and can play the helper/eraser role he did at Kentucky.
