Thanks to Alvin Gentry, Davis' progression this upcoming season will rival the career jumps seen in the greatest players of all time.
After Saturday's exhibition game between the Pelicans and the Pacers, Paul George was ready to give up on the experiment at power forward. He may very well be right in that he should not be put through an 82 game season banging against bigger, stronger athletes and forgo his natural advantage at the small forward slot.
Matching his comments from earlier this off-season, it's clear George has had reservations about the position shift for some time now and playing against other NBA competition for the first time, he was overwhelmed.
