Ross and DD are going to be ridiculously fun to watch.

It's also worth noting that Valanciunas has been selected over Donut for LTU Olympic team.

Yowza.

Nice to read the comment from Davis. He really does need to improve, especially considering he's nearly a 3rd year pro now.

raps should have let him play last season. bargnani was injured, amir was in dog house, and we decided to give minutes to aaron gray, jamal magloire. ed davis played less minutes in his second season! how did that ****ing happen?

raps are responsible for ruining him if he doesn't pan out.

He still got some decent burn, he simply didn't play well enough. Like I said, he's now a 3rd year pro, he should have improved, and I'm not sure he has.

decent burn? with bargnani and amir out of the lineup he should have averaged 30mpg. but no he averaged 25mpg. that after averaging 26mpg as a rookie. that alone has me scratching my head at dwayne casey. i mean why exactly wouldn't we want him on the floor at all times?

25mpg isn't decent burn? You play the minutes you deserve, he didn't deserve any more. Casey plays to win, that much is obvious.

aaron gray and jamal magloire arent going to win you more games than ed davis. i think casey's unwillingness to play ed davis is a sign that while he may be good with a veteran team, he's not the right coach for a young developing team. he needs to show tough love to his young players and let them go through mistakes. this team should not be signing any veterans.

You're not getting the point. If Ed doesn't improve in 25mpg over 2 seasons, an extra 5mpg isn't turning him into a player.

You need veterans to show the youth how to play. Magloire and Gray played well in the time they saw (both less than Davis), it is t theirs or Caseys fault that Ed never took his chances.

All came to close with a narrow win over the Knicks yesterday.

Shame the roster never played out as first expected.

Ross and Ed Davis were the only two players of NBA caliber on the squad.

Davis looks improved. More fluidity in his jumpshot that's transitioned to his free throw. Ross looked good both ways, even though his shot wasn't always falling.
