You and your crony missed the point completely. I'm not comparing Oden and Davis as players - I never once even tried to do so. I'm using them as variables in your "formula." Figure it out before you reply, please. I'm merely noting that if you are using college + SL as criteria for how good a player is going to be in the NBA, you can't just do that for Glen Davis; it'd be hypocritical. You'd have to use it for everybody. So by GO saying that because of his college and summer league struggles, Davis won't be any good, you have to say the same for Oden, too, otherwise you're bending your criteria to suit your ends. Same with a guy like Kedrick Brown. His college strengths transferred to summer league. But he's bagging groceries at Co-Op now.

And the entire gist of my entire post was that your opinion is completely valid, as is Causeway's regarding how Davis will do. I SPECIFICALLY pointed that out. You are all getting so hung up on how good I think Davis will be compared to Oden that you're missing the point completely. My contention is only that you cannot judge the kind of NBA career a player will have from college and summer league alone. This has been proven time and time again.

And I'm not even saying Davis will or won't be any damn good. But I'm waiting until I see some NBA games to judge.
