I honestly believe that davis brings more to the table than blake(defense is better by miles). And this is coming for a BG fan.
Yea his 5 rebounds were amazing. I'll take a consistent 20/10/3 machine with efficient scoring over a great defender who can't rebound or score well at the NBA level. Blake's defense has improved quite a bit and will continue to grow. He will never defend like Davis due to Davis' length and defensive awareness but Davis will never put up 20+ and 12+ either.

Yea he's doing a better job now, still overrated. People were saying he's as NBA ready as Duncan... so color me not impressed. Once teams start doubling and game planning for him the way they do like Blake he's going to hit a HUGE wall.

I think he'll be fine once he becomes more decisive with his moves and imrpoves on his shot. Dont know if he'll do it but i like the tools he has and his ability to get in the lane

Brow is not gonna get double teamed. He very rarely ever creates for himself. he gets points and rebounds from hustle plays. Hes not a comparable player to Blake and Duncan yet.

Anthony Davis 9-9 from the line.
Looks good.
People shit all over his offensive game like he has none
Dude has a decent offensive game and could easily develop into a 20 point guy and of course he is a monster on defense. Plus he will get a lot of points because he is a good FT shooter.

Austin Rivers on the other hand looks terrible.
That's awesome and bad at the same time. To get 9 free throws as a rookie in your first game... it's not something a rookie can depend on. So from the floor he actually scored 12 points?

He is a better shooter. the only thing blake has on him is dunks and maybe athleticism. You talk about the 22-14 debut game from blake like he is some kind of rebounding machine. The dude sucks rebounding.
You can never say a player will or wont do X or Y.
