I am not a Glen Davis fan...I don't see that his style of play or size will do anything to prevent a "small ball" style of basketball.
Its not about preventing other teams from going small, the Clippers can deal with that. Its about giving them another option than Hollins when teams are big and Blake/DeAndre are in foul trouble.

I think TB meant that the team with Big Baby is pushed toward playing small ball.
Well that's the issue when you're trying to pick up a 3rd big on the waiver wire and buyout scrap heap.

07-08 C's had the same issue.

BBD isn't small ball, he's fat ball. His biggest benefit for the Clips will be defense, because he's good in Doc's (AKA Thib's) defensive system, and nobody can move him in the low post except the Hamburglar.

He'll be huge against the Randolphs and Hibberts and Howards of the NBA. Can't block shots, but he can take charges.

Glen Davis has moved close to committing to the Clippers, clearing way for Nets to sign Jason Collins, league sources tell Yahoo.

Wojo
It's official, Davis signed with the Clippers yesterday.
