Stren, your hilarious man!

You know how I operate, my man.

 

[magnifier661]

There's something about this cat I really like. He fits right in to the Portland mentality. Work hard, don't be a pussy, defend and rebound the fucking ball

How can you not love this guy:

Finally a guy who understands what it means to be a PF!

I got a stiffy.

 

[selloutking]

"hopefully this is my last stop" "I want to retire here"
these are the types of things I love to hear

 

[BBert]

even tho he was a Laker, I really love the guy so far!

Davis has no Laker piss and purple stench to him at all. He didn't belong there. He belongs here.

Big Ed is going to be the next Wes Matthews in terms of what he means to the team and the city.

 

[Natebishop3]

I really like the guy... and he's still pretty young.

Big Ed is going to be the next Wes Matthews in terms of what he means to the team and the city.

I remember back when he was in Toronto and I was like "I hope he's a blazer some day". So, this is good stuff. Hoping it works out!

 

[riverman]

When Olshey said he's building a team around Dame, he meant more than just skillsets...these guys want to be here and really seem to have created an environment for maxing out their talents. I'm excited about where the franchise is headed

 

[0-Our!]

is fucking awesome.

Can't believe the L*kers let him get away. Maybe they'll clue in when we play them and Ed outrebounds their front line.

They r the Lakers... they don't "get" anything

 

[0-Our!]

Your face is LOL quality..... bitch.

In... HIS... face! About... his... face!

even tho he was a Laker, I really love the guy so far!

He may have been in their colors @ 1 time... but to me he was never a Laker, he's always been a Blazer; welcome home Mr. Davis.

 

[0-Our!]

I can't wait until we get Henderson back. I know some people have already written him off, but I think he's going to really round out our rotation nicely.

He'll ad depth & contribute BUT I've np w/ using him to trade up/consolidate

 

[illmatic99]

This guy is awesome. Love his game

Just needs a haircut, or even cornrows. His current look is awful.

Always liked Davis. Hopefully he is consistently good this year and not the fade-in fade-out player he's been previously. Coaching support will be major for him.

He's in a place where he WANTS to be, he won't fade; if anything, he'll only get better @ worst he'll remain the beast he's been

Nothing wrong with an old school 'fro. Besides, I'm worried if he messes with it, he'll lose his strength and power....not to mention a badass look.....

Agreed! We enjoy giving nicknames to players, howz 'bout we call Davis THE Honey Badger bc of his attitude/toughness (the hair is an integral part of all this, helps further illustrate he "give no fucks!" )

Um no the Honey Badger was at LSU.

How about

 

[BBert]

How about

Shouldn't this be in the Dame and CJ thread?

 

[Reep]

Honey badger implies small and quick and mean. Davis reminds me more of Groot--nice when among friends, but you don't want to mess with him or his friends.

 

[UncleCliffy'sDaddy]

I'm fine with plain old Big Ed....it fits.

 

[Wizard Mentor]

If you think you like Ed Davis, now...

Upcoming storyline...Improved FT%
Last year: .488
Career: .567
Preseason: .688
Game 1: 2/2

He'll be a much more effective player if he can shoot 68% from the line. His FT stroke look pretty good to me this year. What do others think?

 

[Scalma]

If he can shoot around 70%, he will be in there to close games instead of plumlee.

 

[Reep]

I think he is in the end of games just because of his defense. Improving his FT% is just bonus.

 

[42N8Bounce]

If he can shoot around 70%, he will be in there to close games instead of plumlee.

Plumlee's free-throw shooting is even worse than Davis'. Career numbers -
Plumlee: 54.5%
Davis: 56.7%
Tough call who to put in for the last few minutes of a close game. Nice to see our other young bigs with solid FT numbers -
Leonard: 83.1%
Vonleh: 69.2%
Alexander: 67.1%

I like "Mr. ED"

Fact.
