Ricky Davis is having a phenomenal season thus far (note his 34-point effort against the Clips last night) with no outbursts, while Blount - aside from one or two good outings - has yet to justify that big contract he signed over the summer.
But hey, that's what happens when a national sportwriter tries to "grade" every single team as if he's been following each one from the beginning of the season; it's just not possible, so you get lazy and "guess".

Kawshen - you post lots of links here with some interesting articles, but I almost never see you comment on them. Most generally, it's here's a list or here's a link with no additional comment. Is there something about this list of grades that made you go "hmmmmmm?" Give me a hook as to why you think it's worth us reading. Thanks! | Whitebacon
