I'd say mildly, I'm sure he'll have a much better year next year.

he's certainly no rookie phenom like I was hoping he was.

With a record of 18-38, everybody's a dissapointment i'd say.

i don't know...he's pretty great.

3 out of his last five games were double-doubles. The fourth was a 20 and 8 game.

...only one of these five games did he play 30 minutes or more.

averaging 16 and 10 with 2.3 blocks per 36 minutes...not to mention his outrageously good PER.


Lillard, who everyone is obsessed with, just isn't as good imho...playing 39 minute a game, averaging 18 points and 6.5 assists on 42% shooting. 15.7 PER (and Lillard is 3 years older).

Davis averages 13 and 8 with 2 blocks per game in 11 less minutes per game.

If Davis were playing those type of minutes, no doubt in my mind he'd be averaging a double-double.

I'm anticipating many MONSTER double-doubles next season. he's 19, getting better every day. 20,15, and 5 stat lines will be a regularity.

He should continue to get more minutes for the rest of the season, and the rookie phenom will shine.
