Fucking terrible!! Our defense is just terrible tonight. No energy on that side of the floor at all. Nobody wants to take over and make a play.

Now Davis, he's gonna be a beast. Reminds me a lot of Dwight Howard at that age. Is he a lock for the #1 pick?
I don't think Elton Brand is a horrible comparison. Maybe a Zach Randolph (without the headcase factor) or Kevin Love, but not quite as dominant on the glass.

As for Davis, he isn't anywhere near the physical force Howard is. He's a great defender already, but he's long and lanky. He isn't a manchild out there. He's got a long way to go on offense. Reminds me of a more athletic Marcus Camby.

Davis has offensive skills that no big man at 18-years old has ever had, at least that I've seen. He's a better offensive player NOW than Camby was in his prime of the NBA.

He just hasn't had to show it at UK.

Honestly, on a bad team, or even an average team, Davis would be handling the ball and shooting jump shots. He would be playing more like a 3 than a 5.

LOL

Come on..so in their loss this year, Calipari was just like, "No Davis...don't showcase it, we don't need it."

You're the biggest UK homer I've ever seen, and that's saying something

Anthony Davis can play the 3? lol

I've only seen him play in a UK uniform and haven't seen much to warrant that claim, but he is damn good.

It's sticks out because they result in Ls, we haven't had many in that span. And going for 30+ isn't that common.
