I remember people calling 2012 draft strong, and calling the 2013 draft historically weak. Truthfully, I don't see MKG going second in the 2013 draft at all.

problem is Kemba seems to be ready to compete now and not want to wait for 3 players in biz, mclemore and MKG 2-3 years to develop. maybe pieces in a trade, but i could see potential issues

AD with 12 pts and 5 reb at the half

Waiters going HAM in the 4th quarter.

DowJones · Post #908 » by **DowJones** » Mon Mar 11, 2013 12:27 am

Waiters and Irving are going to be fun together. Waiters is really showing why Cleveland was so high on him.

Shem · Post #909 » by **Shem** » Mon Mar 11, 2013 1:20 am

Lillard with his 6th strait game game with at least 20 or more points with 20 and 8 assists on 9-16 shooting.

Both Lillard and Davis had pretty good games tonight.

20 and 8 vs 18-10

Yep. Good game for both. Davis with his 14th double double of the season. I think he'd be a double double guy just about every night if he got at least 30 minutes on most nights.

After seeing him about 10 times this year I would say absolutely no doubt in my mind he's a double double guy with regular starter minutes.

Once again lillard turned it on in the 4th qtr, I really wish he would pick up his attacking mentality earlier In games. I know it's nitpicking but it's something I would love to see

Davis is averaging 16/11/2 blks in games where he plays 30+ minutes this year.

Thats while having a raw offensive game, being way too light, and having no plays run for him.

Yea, thats one way to look at it.

Ive said it before and ill say it again. Whether or not Davis he truly reaches KG/TD type level remains to be seen, but I would stack a 19-20 yr old AD up with a 19-20 yr old KG and if you look at the categories Davis' PER 36 beats 19-20 yr old Garnett's PER 36 in every major statistical category except assist. Davis is as far as those bigs at 19. and we can see his offense catch up to his defense in the very near future.

jinishima · Post #918 » by **jinishima** » Mon Mar 11, 2013 3:05 am

I like his quickness. Keeps workin and thomas will be a solid player. Hopefully Kings front office dont mess that up

He's a sophomore...

A. Davis has GREAT talent. If he plays for 15 years with KG's will to win and energy, then I'll bow deeply to him. There's a very long way to go before he's KG's equal.
