I think davis is a player that the better players get around him, the better he is. Has a little trouble creating his own offense, and i don't like when he runs down and sets up on the low block. Could also work harder on setting a great pic. look at KG

I actually think think this is one of the best things that he does, especially in transition as he can beat most big men down the floor. EG showed the ability to throw that long pass last night as he did it to AD and Anderson.

AR will get much better. Guaranteed. Incomplete.
AD gets a B for now. Could move up to an A soon.

Rivers is having a tough season but to be fair he should be averaging 12 minutes instead of 30

Bunch of Rivers haters in the house.
Bradley Beal is shooting 35% from the field and 27% from 3.
Dion Waiters is shooting 36% from the field and 32% from 3.
Thomas Robinson is getting 16 minutes and barely shooting 40% as a big man.
Damian Lillard is having a good season 42% and playing 38 mpg. 18 ppg.
Harrison Barnes' PER is 10.8 -- averaging about 9 points over 25 minutes.
Terrence Ross also has a PER of 10.8 -- averaging 7 points over 17 minutes, shooting only 31% from 3.
Andre Drummond is playing well. 7 points 7 rebounds 1.5 blocks in about 20 minutes per game
Austin Rivers is shooting 35% from the field, 36% from the field and is averaging 7.6 ppg.
The point is that yeah Rivers has sucked but so has almost everyone who was taken ahead of him.
As far as behind him, Meyers Leonard is retarded.
Kendall Marshall has played in 8 games all year and is shooting like 27% from the field.
Royce White has spent more time crying on twitter than playing basketball

He could have used another year or two of college play. But I think he has all the tools (I mean basketball skill tools . . . not the fan tools who know exactly dick and have already written him off).

You were discussed yesterday. I learned some interesting things. But . . . don't worry about it.
