Current: Davis is finally seeing his production match his potential, and the Raptors are now one of the NBA's hottest teams since he has moved into the starting lineup. Davis has real talent to "feel" out a defense's weaknesses and earn easy baskets by moving to the perfect spot on the floor. He gets a lot of dunks this way, and he finishes a high rate of his non-dunks too. Davis works at rebounding every shot, and does so effectively, while making very few mistakes with the ball. -- Thorpe
Future: With his performance over the past month, Davis has earned the right to stay in the starting lineup after Andrea Bargnani returns, and he might not give up that role for years. Strength remains an issue for the rail-thin Davis, especially in terms of defending the post. MySynergySports.com ranks him 124th out of 152 qualified players in points allowed per post-up. -- Pelton
he has a terrible WARP, though i have no idea what it measures exactly.

I am sure there are PLENTY of GMs (read 0) that would draft Ed Davis before John Wall and Ricky Rubio if there were to start a new franchise today...

cousins should be top 5. i like kevin love but i get sick of the media blowing him. zach randolph use to put up some phenominal numers as a blazer, but the media dismissed it and said, "he's just a guy padding hi stats on a bad team." has kevin love ever made the playoffs?

the same thing can be said about jamal crawford also, seems people only give you ratings if you are on a good team or not

Not sold on Wall either, but on what planet is Larry Sanders a better player?
Larry Sanders has had a very good season so far this year.
That said, I think that he is a great example of how fantasy basketball (and perhaps short term results in general) has poisoned how people view basketball players and talent.
