There are quite few posters who regrets we let Biyombo to go out instead of JV while other posters feels Biyombo was overrated and not worthy of 17Mils a year.
Since I don't follow Orlando play I would like to ask your opinion how much do you value Biyombo and how good defensively he is?
Thanks.


Ross , filler and first round pick. Hell first round pick would do it. Hell , second round picks and expiring deal would do it to me. He is garbage on team where 2 stars can't carry offense around him.

His defense isn't enough to mitigate his complete non existent offense. When he's on the floor we look horrible, especially with Payton and AG because we have ZERO floor spacing.

Vucevic is more valuable because he's not a liability on either end, and he has a better contract. Biyombo is an over pay and doesn't fit this team as currently constructed especially if they're committed to Payton and Gordon. If we had elite wing players then he'd be a better fit. This was a waste of money and reach by Rob Hennigan.

If he could catch a damn pass or hold on to the ball he'd be great.

You guys should have fun to visit our board. Right now we have like 3-5 threads about JV - Biz debate.

You can have him back if you send giovinco to OCSC :)

Seriously though, he's been nothing short of horrible this year. He's up there with Channing frye as far as worst contracts in team history with Biz taking the cake because his contract is more than double that which frye signed.
