This is what Big Baby said to the Globe’s Julian Benbow before the lockout: “I just want to make sure I’m Glen Davis wherever I’m at. I think I can be Glen Davis wherever. It just depends on the system, the people around the system, who’s going to let Glen Davis be Glen Davis, not make Glen Davis something they think he should be.’’

So what Glen Davis is saying is you gotta let Glen Davis be a fat guy who thinks Glen Davis is far better then Glen Davis is--and when Glen Davis makes goofy faces, and acts like a jackass as only Glen Davis can--it's supposed to be understood that is what Glen Davis is. Did I get this correct or because I'm not Glen Davis, is it impossible to understand the responsibility and plight of being Glen Davis?

I think more articles like this and we can understand the Owners side of things far more.

LMAO. One thing I will say in support of Glen Davis, and I'm sure Glen Davis would say it himself if asked, is that Glen Davis was thought to be a much lesser pro prospect than Tyrus Thomas, but Glen Davis has definitely outshone Thomas in the NBA (although, frankly, I never really got the Tyrus Thomas love when he was coming out of LSU).
