Option B: Biedrins

Though the majority of Biedrins' points come off pick-and-rolls with Baron Davis or Jackson, a new play for him was installed before the 116-104 loss to the Hornets on Friday night. The Warriors worked on the play again during Sunday's practice.
Biedrins also is growing more comfortable handling the ball 10 to 12 feet from the basket and making his move inside - something he showcased a few times in going 10-for-11 against New Orleans.

That one play where he drove to the hoop was "groundbreaking" for him. That one got me really excited.

He drove it to the hoop against Amare and Nash last season.

Yeah that one I remember. He sort of caught Amare (and the defense) off guard on that one (the middle was wide open for him) but what really impressed me with that one against NO was that the middle was clogged up, he was being defensive and the way he powered it to the basket. He actually did what a lot of people said he couldn't do, which is take it to the hole while being covered. A real big man move and finished in traffic. I'd like to see a replay of that one. Mulson's going to have trouble not paying that guy.

Here's another challenge: Launch a 3-pointer this New Year. Nellie says he approves. Bol probably would, too.
Oh no......

Thanks Bob. God, I hope Nellie doesn't have him starting to shoot threes although I guess that would be one way for him to become endeared to Nellie.

On Beidrins' three:
"Yeah, he'd be wide open as well," Nelson said. "I haven't gone to that, nor will I. I'm trying to get him to shoot a 10-foot jump shot one time."
