BBD has taken Leon's role, Scal took BBD's, and Leon has taken Scals. in regards to productivity at least.

You know whats funny is two months ago just about everyone on this board, including myself, chose Powe over BBD in regards to 'would you resign this offseason, if you could only have one' thread, and I'd have to believe that thread would make a giant 180 if started again.

I know right now Id choose BBD over Leon.  He can knock down a jumper, does a decent job of finishing inside, good rebounder, and a much better defender than Powe.  Not to mention BBD helps spread the ball around rather than becoming a black hole.


I'm happy to eat some crow with regards to my opinion of Davis.

I don't know what's going on with Leon. He seems utterly despondent out there now that he's in a slump. It seems like he's stopped getting calls from the refs for whatever reason, so his scoring has dropped. He's still a very good rebounder, but he needs to figure out some offensive diversity and get his head back on straight.

i don't like the fact that Gabe's role has been decreased to ZERO.

Kevin Love is very good. Shame they only pick the rookie team based on your scoring average.

I think teams have started paying more attention to him and made adjustments to slow him down, and Leon hasnt made any adjustments to it, he just keeps trying the same things over and over.  The fact that he never passes the ball compounds it more because if you watch him enough you know that once the ball goes down to him it aint leaving.  

He needs to counter their adjustments to him, keep the collapsing defenses honest, a good start would be finding House at the three point line.

Rondo thinks they do the same for the all-star team.
