Do any of you feel that RD could be a solid leader for this young team?
With a new child and the added responsibilities at home, I believe he has found a solid ground under-foot. The way he has handled the 6th man role and his work ethic have been nice, to say the least.
I think it might be a good thing for PP too. They work-out during the summer and seem to be close friends. Anything to keep them focused and upbeat is great. Let's hope they continue with the positive approach. If they can feed off each other, all the better.

Davis started becoming a leader last year. He came off the bench and guided our second unit. Unfortunately, his "past" is always mentioned. I expect the same this year.  |

I think Boston is the perfect place for Ricky. He realized that he wasn't the best player on the team and that he had a coach who wasn't out to derail his career, even if he was sticking him on the bench. By realizing that he wasn't the best player on the floor, he stopped grumbling for the spotlight, and by finding a niche as a 6th man, he found a perfect avenue to release his pent up energy on. The fans have grown to love Ricky and I think this has had a tremendous effect on him. He had been a bad guy whoever he played for--but here, he is accepted for who he is. And because of this, he's become appreciative and his attitude has been much better.
I see him being one of the leaders on the team, but not "the" leader.

I think he's found a home here. He feeds of the crowd with his thunderous dunks. I think he realized once cleveland got lebron he would never be the focal point of the cavs, and had to get out. I guess we got the better end of that deal, none of the players we traded away for davis are with the CAVS. I'll take ricky's energy and passion all day long. |
