Last season Anthony Davis was transcendentally efficient. He was a Synergy Sports Demigod, filling up the basket in a myriad of ways while producing highlights by the bushel. By Player Efficiency Rating (PER) Davis had the 11th best season in NBA history at 30.8. The only players to do better are Michael Jordan, Wilt Chamberlain, and LeBron James. Davis accomplished this without creating his own shot most of the time; as Seth Partnow pointed out in October Davis "self-created" just 18% of his made buckets.
Alvin Gentry was brought in to unleash Anthony Davis from the shackles put on him by Monty Williams.
