I didn't see this at all! AD gonna be a monster. I thought he was gonna be some solid defensive player with ok offense something like Noah.

the weird thing is that he's made such big strides offensively that might actually be better on that end than he is on defense right now. i think his impact on the offense is better than it is on defense, which trips me out.

he's good on the boards and his block numbers are serious but he isn't a making that big of a difference overall defensively for his team yet, his squad is one of the worst defensive teams in the league right now. i think it will come though. he'll learn through experience alone, he's already got the instincts and the mentality. once he figures out rotations and positioning and just straight hustling more, it should be a wrap.

plus if he gets better players/coaches around him...:wow:

I wish him good health, if he can keep his knees and can get a better coaching personnel to mold him he will go VERY far

The fact he won't shave the unibrow irks the shyt out of me. Like c'mon son.

Happy for his success though. Mega talented and seems like a nice guy.
It sets him apart, :comeon:

His brow is unique and a big future marketing thing.

But its scary to know all the success dude got.

National championship with a freshman starting line, Olympic Gold Medal, youngest All star ever (possibly) and its only been two years.

:wow:

We'll see how they mesh when he comes back.Will he blossom with a caliber of a big Man like Davis or just another empy stat point guard who really has no impact to a winning team *cough* Brandon Jennings*cough*
Holiday was playing pretty good before the injury, was shutting down opposing PGs and was passing the rock well. He was averaging like 18 points and 8 assists a game. Him and Reke are a good tandem on offense case both can handle the rock and Holiday can spot up while Reke operates. I think the signing of Reke signals pretty much the end of Gordon's tike in NOLA.

Davis and Reke actually are really good together in the pick and roll game. Evans draws a lot of attention when he drives to the basket and that leaves Davis open for the pass or putback. One thing Evans does well is with the "Kobe assist", he puts that shyt off glass sometimes cause he knows Davis can jump out the gym and slam that shyt easily. Since Reke has been put in the starting lineup two weeks ago, he's giving them 22/6/6/1, that's pretty good for a no. 2 and he's hitting the his set 3 at a decent clip.

Davis is just :wow: I didn't know this dude had that good of a jumper and a god handlel, dude is taking people off the dribble like it ain't shyt and scoring at ease. If he adds a post game, he could easily average 27/15/3/3 and be a MVP candidate.

Gordon's contract with ends next year and that's huge as fukk for them. They can use that money in next year's free agency and try to get a SF who can stretch the floor and play D and get a center to go with Davis.

I think they're plan was to pair Davis with shooters and guards who can create their own shot. Davis/Holiday/Evans/Anderson is a scary core cause they're so young. So they're gonna grow together and get better together.

AD game is flawless. He seems like a good dude too. No locker room/off-the-court issues yet. My only concern is his health. I hope he can stay healthy.

Do you guys think he'll eventually be a center as he gets older and stronger?

He don't need to be that type of player. With how the game is now, he won't have to deal with the PF/Center nonsense that Duncan had to deal with. I think the plan for him is to get his core stronger to deal with injuries but help keep his agility by staying lanky. It works for him, no reason to get swole and change the dynamics of his game.

I'd like to see Cousins get swole up Shaq style though...Just because we haven't had a presence like that in a loooong time.
