Hendo refuses to pass the ball to anybody unless he can't get his shot off. He's calling his own pick & rolls while the PGs, Sessions & Kemba, look on in frustration

magic announcers said in the 1st quarter "bobcats are looking to possibly trade henderson, and he's certainly played like it", and i think they're right. hard to blame him, really.

He's been doing that before the trade rumors. Others refused to acknowledge it, but that's the reason why he's on the block. He think he's Kobe-esque, but he's not half the offensive player to be taking things into his own hands at the cost of ball movement

Ya, you really can. When he had Nelson sealed off deep in the paint on the mismatch Kemba identified it and fired the ball in really quickly to Biz and Nelson fouled him.

Biz came flying out of the key out to Kemba to high five him for the pass - like he was just thrilled that someone actually got him the ball quickly in a good position.

Interesting that Coach D seems to use a wing (either MKG or JT) to guard the opposing PG and not Kemba the last 2 or 3 games.

19 first-half minutes for Hendo. Now that's more like it.
Humble yourself.

But we don't have any ball movement after the wasted 8 seconds of guys looking at each other and not doing anything. We lead the league in shot clock violations for a while (not sure if we still do, haven't checked in a week or two).

But Henderson literally does the exact same thing that Sessions and Gordon do when they see that nothing is working. They just don't wait until the last 5 seconds of the shot clock like Kemba.

I was actually thinking to myself about how he was not getting to the rim enough. The dude can get to the rim at will. He needs to be relentless. Maybe I'm being too demanding, but he can drive more than he has been.

Walker is ready to take over.

Sometimes Biz shows outstanding potential as a back to the basket scorer.

I really do wish we would feed him in the post a lot more.

I wonder why Dunlap pulled Hendo during the run. That was a questionable substitution unless it had something to do with defense

I'm pretty sure I'd die if I took a charge from Fat Baby Davis.

It is rather obvious were showcasing Henderson for a trade. Taylor has averaged over 30 minutes a game the past 9 games or so, and news breaks out that were interested in trading Henderson and Taylor is basically relegated to the bench.

Granted he has struggled severely with his shot lately.

He needs either MKG or Mully to step it up and help him.

JT can do no wrong in the eyes of Dunlap.

I don't think so. Henderson is one of our best players, and Taylor was playing big minutes because he was out. Now that Hendo's back, this is probably the amount of minutes he's going to get.
