Who the hell is Ed Davis?!?!

[magnifier661]

Ong I'm gonna kill myself

 

[illmatic99]

Started for the Lakers at PF/C last season. He's decent.

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

Dale Davis' dad.

 

[Scalma]

Underrated. I'd like this if it didn't mean aldridge was gone. Now it's just meh.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

If it is for MLE-type money (5.6 MIL or so or less) then ok. He does have promise. But otherwise? Meh!

 

[magnifier661]

Ugh

 

[santeesioux]

20 million dollars for Ed Fucking Davis, jesus.

 

[SheedSoNasty]

We gonna suuuuck.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

25 years old. 20 PER last year. Plays exclusively down low. Shot 60% from the field last year. Good rebounder. Better defensively than offensively.

IMO--perfect fit with Leonard.

Yeah it's a steal what of it

 

[KeepOnRollin]

I would say if LMA and Rolo come back (which Woj still says is a posibility) that we have way too many bigs.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Think Whiteside-lite

 

[PtldPlatypus]

I'm pretty damn happy about this. Davis + Aminu have made us younger, tougher, and much better defensively, for a combined 13M this year.

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

When I first saw the headline I thought it was Big Baby Davis! Thank god it's not!!!!

 

[riverman]

Ed Davis is going to surprise fans ..he's taking Rolo's spot on the cheap basically.

Sorry for my meltdown. I just want to read "Aldridge has or has not decided to go to Portland"

Think, what we wanted T-Rob to be if he could make decent decisions.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

So, Whiteside then lol

 

[Mamba]

You guys got a hell of a player. He's very underrated. Solid on the boards and solid defensively.

 

[santeesioux]

Yeah it's a steal what of it

After getting a look at his stats, he's better than what I thought.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

So, Whiteside then lol

Whiteside is a legit 7-footer and one of the best rim-protectors around. Nobody thinks either T-Rob or Davis is anywhere close to that.

 

[magnifier661]

Can you move my thread with TPups, I really don't give a shit who's first. I just don't want to click two threads to read opinions

Davis is like 6'11 and can block shots. That's pretty close.

 

[lordninja11]

Ed Davis is nice when he is getting quality mins but if you start to share his mins with multiple players his performance dips. Not a bad move imo.

 

[Mediocre Man]

PER 36 he's a 12/10 guy with a 17 PER. Good defensive player can guard both PF/ C

Good signing

Who says the Blazers can sign big name free agents!?

 

[Mediocre Man]

The Blazers and homers say it

I prefer smart signings to big names any day. Toronto spent more on Carroll than we've spent on Aminu/Davis combined. I'll be curious to see which is more productive next year.

He's an athletic shot blocker and dunker, check it out:

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Yep. Looks like he has nice ups!
