If he stays healthy, Gordon is better than both of them right now. Maybe not 3 or 4 years from now, but definitely right now and he can still improve and likely become a top 2 SG a few years from now when Kobe and Wade start falling off.
In terms of offensive game, I'm not sure about his jumper, but if he can develop it and be great at it, he basically is Garnett. He has amazing handles for a guy his size and obviously will provide superb defense. And I think he's got the desire in him to work on that jumper all offseason. Hornets are a 6 or better seed next season assuming they don't have crazy injuries like they did this past year.

I think Davis can be a 6 or 7 time first team All-NBA Defense.
He can also be a guy who scores 16 or 17 points per game on a team with a good first option scorer (either a point guard or 2 guard). If he doesn't go all Dwight Howard and think of himself as a global icon who should be getting 25 shots a game, he could be the most valuable center in the game.

He is no where near physical enough to be a very good rebounder in the NBA

Don't be stupid
Marcus Camby is one of the comparisons. How physical is he? He is a great rebounder.
Garnett lead the league in RPG 4 straight years. Oh man what a physical specimen!!!!

To me, he is the NBA version of Cam Newton minus the character concerns.
Comes in with people questioning prospective skills but totally has the athletic ability and work ethic to turn himself into a superstar.

I don't think he is as skilled. His offensive game, especially on the block is nothing amazing, but he has a solid jump shot. I bet he'll get 13 or 14 points per game next season, along with 9 boards and 3 blocks. And he will continue to get better, as he has every summer.

KG is extremely physical.

No, Garnett WAS extremely athletic
He was never extremely physical.

are you mistaking physicalness for intensity?

Never heard the name Eric Gordon?
