Jazz sign Ed Davis

[candrew]

He's a great rebounder, or at least used to be.

His RB% was better than Gobert's last year. So let's go with still is.

We signed him cheap and he's a rebounding machine, good defender, full of energy and a great insurance policy as a backup. The Favors loss is now minimized.

Anyone else remember spending a lot of time on here debating the merits of Ed Davis vs. Hayward vs. Paul George vs. Xavier Henry vs. Ekpe Udoh prior to the 2010? draft?

People wanted Cole Aldrich yikesss

Is Ed Davis even better than Udoh?

Yes.

Ehh Im more salty because this means we dont get JaMychal Green.

Man, what a steal for us. Ed Davis is a perfect replacement for the cost

yeah, by playing against scrubs in garbage minutes. net ratings and BPM simply aren't good stats for evaluating borderline NBA players

idk tho. I'm not on expert on what backup center is the best. There is a lot of gassing up happening though.
