Him and Asik combined for 50 points and 34 rebounds and 14 blocks.
I was on the record that they were the best defensive towers in the league. This is just crazy.
I think Houston/Portland/Phoenix win a few games less this year (Houston because of FA losses and the other two because I think they maxed out their rosters). I see New Orleans barring injury taking a HUGE step forward.

Dude is a beast...IMO he is going to be up there with players like Durant and Lebron. His agility and quickness for a player of his size is unmatched around the league.
Asik was one of the most underrated acquisitions of the off-season. People don't realize how good of a defender that guy is. More importantly for the Pelicans, it allows AD to move to his more natural spots on the floor and play that nasty weak side swatter and roam the floor a little bit more.
My not so bold prediction on AD's #s this year: 24 points, 12-13 rebounds, 3+ blocks, 2+ steals this season. Book it. (bleep) I want this guy here.

click on the block videos, i know the nba loves to pump up its stars, but turning 4 actual blocks into 9 just for press is pretty lame, it's worse than stockton assists. _________________ I believe everything the media tells me except for anything for which I have direct personal knowledge, which they always get wrong

I can't play the videos here, I only get the audio. What's wrong with his blocks?

I think what Telleris is seeing is that not all the blocks are getting contact with his full palm and being swatted out of the playing area. Some of them have davis just getting a finger tip or two onto the ball and diverting the shot just a foot away from the path it was on towards the basket.
I always thought that all you needed was a piece to divert the shot and for it to be a block.
He is still a baby too in terms of age. If he can stay healthy, watch out as his potential is pretty much unlimited. _________________ Love, Laker Lanny
