Anthony Davis was giving Duncan that work. Thats all I needed to see from him.
One month into the season, what do you think of the NBA's rookie class???

Fixed.
Its too early to truly tell. But...
Davis has the multiple All-Star potential but I dont see the new Garnett stuff ppl was talking bout. He gotta strengthen up too but he probably will.
Drummond has as much upside or more physically but we gotta see if his polish catches up. He'll always be in the league though for his size.
Lillard balling. If Portland's record > New Orleans, which is most likely, he is ROY. Unless Davis just beast numbers from here forward.
Never saw the MKG hype but if he's balling/puts it together his ceiling is Gerald Wallace.
Barnes's ceiling is Richard Jefferson. Will be a good #2 option.
Rivers coulda been a solid scorer/sixth man but he came out entirely too early.
Marshall, Henson, and Sullinger are players off the radar right now but I feel will be very solid for a long time IMO...like very good complementary players for stars. Marshall as someone's playmaker, Henson as a defender/rebounder, Sullinger you will be able to throw it to on the low/mid-post and ask for 17 pts as a #2 maybe.
Everyone else I haven't seen much of.
EDIT: Also like Shved as microwaveable offense off the bench a la JR Smith/Harden for a team.
