He looks horrible beside bargnani, two defensive holes cannot be plugged with defensive team work, neither with a barrage of offense if bargnani has nothing goin on but the rent.

Jose by himself is fine, he runs the pick and roll and the team well. Besides, penetration from the 1 is acceptable, you just have to have bigs that back you up in the paint.

I sincerely hope we roll with these two in the near future whether they are coming off the bench together or starting together. Not only does Val help get Ed spacing under the hoop, but Val is obviously more comfortable with Ed on the floor both on offense and defense. I've been a fan of Davis' since we drafted him and my trust in him has only gotten stronger every year. The guy can be a real asset to this team; I just hope we figure out a way to get rid of Bargnani real soon.


i'd like to see ED and JV against a more competent front court than the Nets minus Lopez and see how they fare first..

This is a true PF. A defensive rebounding machine with an improved jumpshot.

I will laugh hard at Casey when Bargnani returns to the starting lineup in his first game back.


Interesting comparison, Davis does have that hard drop step a la ONeal, but I don't think defensively or athletically he's anywhere close to JO.

I've been saying this for a while. Having Gray out there helps the team. Even if he sucks on offense, his big strong body creates space which causes the opponents to adjust to it.

Don't harp on Lucas, he played pretty well, couple times his penetration led to wide open shots that were just missed.

Clutch Carter wrote:Team looks a lot more fluid without Bargs and Lowry, everybody is sharing the ball. I don't think I've even seen one bad shot!

offence has looked better all year with jose running it imo

be nice if they keep playing like this until bargs and lowry get back and keep them on the bench. Bargs has been garbage nearly all year and lowry has been mike james 2.0 putting up empty stats at the expense of the teams offence
