About Big Baby
CelticsBlog —
Kelly Dwyer of Ball Don't Lie had the following to say about Big Baby.
Scalabrine eventually fouled out, and as a result, Glen Davis played 30 minutes. Now, while this may seem like a reaction to Davis' 1-12 shooting night, you have to understand that I pride myself on trying to be even keel with these things.

Did you realize?: Smith is shooting a career low from the free throw line (64 percent). Earn your right to shoot those bombs, Josh----still bricking from long range and then taking your free points to an all-time low is not a good way to start.

BB Davis Does Best PJ Brown Impersonation
Comcast SportsNet New England » Wicked Good Sports —
... Truth be told, Big Baby started the season awful, and was the 9th player in the rotation through December. But something changed and Doc actually started playing Davis more than Leon Powe, who was also not on top of his game at times. This was to the chagrin of many, as clearly Davis’ production has been down right paltry (see Kelly Dwyer’s Jan 12th Behind the Box Score at Ball Don’t Lie). ...
