    Anthony Davis Highlights.

    Didn't catch the game last night and I heard this may have been the best game of his career so far. Some individual highlights would be much appreciated.

    Also: I saw a really good highlight vid of him through like the All Star break. Check it out.

    I would love to see a highlight of his game yesterday to. Thanks for that video, AD is going to be so good.

    Anthony Davis Highlights.

    He is getting good at that jumper. Real good. He could be a LMA but more athletic

    Was nice to see Davis driving with the ball instead of taking the jumper every time.

    I'm still in shock and awe that we actually lucked into the #1 pick last year... It's just amazing to me that we got a player as rare as Anthony Davis, and I really can't describe how excited I am for the future of this franchise.

    He;s really got some nice moves at the elbow. He seems very very comfortable from there.

    "I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

    There's also the fear of "Don't cark this up, Demps!"

    Agreed, but there are several reasons I like our chances better this go round:

    1) Davis has a much higher ceiling than Paul did, and that's not taking anything away from Paul. Davis is just a freak.

    2) We have more young players to grow with Davis and a better overall core than we did with CP. We also get to add a top-7 pick to the mix this draft.

    3) We have a much better cap situation to play with, and we're actually in the position to offer the max to a player this off season.

    4) I like Monty and Demps way more than Scott and Bower.

    Many people say Davis is not going to be a game changer and will be a "average starter"

    They are already wrong.

    "I'm not going to allow my putative owner to answer that question, this is an NBA related press conference. Paul Tagliabue and Roger Goodell have collectively sung their praises of Tom and if uh ESPN has a problem with that tell Mr. Skipper to call me at my office."

    He's Serge Ibaka. Which is what I thought he'd be and that's a great thing for the franchise as guys like that are needed to be a championship caliber team.

    Anthony Davis Highlights.

    He has way more offensive game than I think anyone thought. I didn't think he could hit that 18 ft consistently. He does though.

    Bahahahaha. Joke I'm assuming. Please find me highlights of Ibaka doing all that, much less during his rookie year while being the best player. C'mon dude.

    Honestly, the form and how comfortable he is with his shot, I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility that he develops a consistent shot from 3, although that's dangerous for young bigs because then they float out there. But if that's part of his game he will average 20+ easily. I think he'll be about 18-19 ppg next year regardless. But yeah totally agree, his offense is surprisingly smooth and coming along very wel.

    Go find it yourself. I'm sure you have excess to YouTube just like I do.

    The difference is Ibaka plays with Westbrook, Durant and(before this year) Harden. So he isn't expected to do much. But there are highlights of Ibaka doing the same things.

    Yeah I have access to YouTube, just not to that video because it doesn't exist but feel free to prove me wrong. Ibaka is great on D/Blocks and can hit an open jumper, but ball-fakes, drives, constant lobs, multiple 18-footers a game.....no, that's false.

    That comment is asinine. Dude is already better than Ibaka overall as a player.

    RE: Anthony Davis Highlights.

    God I hate being like this, but shut up da throne. Please. Saying Anthony Davis is Serge Ibaka is an incredibly stupid statement on so many levels.

    He does exactly what Davis does. Catch lobs, shoot open mid range jumpers, block shots, finish at the rim with contact, face up jumpers, jump hooks in the post and drive with a open lane to the basket. Same exact skill set.

    Can we agree that we don't know what he's going to be after one year?
