lamar sent it to biz on twitter. biz seems like the kind of dude who would enjoy watching his highlight videos. then again, he might have preferred a crossfit highlight video. maybe just clips of him sprinting up and down the floor, jumping over defenders, picking his teammates up off the floor when they fall, doing jumping jacks in pre-game warmups.

Would the Hornets consider starting him next season? I was just looking at his numbers and although it was in very limited play (14 MPG), he put up really solid stats (61% fg, 115 o-rating, to go with strong rebounding and defensive numbers: 99 d-rating, 3 BPG per 36 min, and 12.3 RPG per 36 min). Wasn't he drafted as a project player who needed several years to develop, and isn't he now into the stage of his career where he should get a chance at starting?

Im pretty sure most of us would love that, but he wont start as long as Al is here, Clifford views him and Al as just a centers that cant play PF

Didn't Biz say, before last year, that he was a center and didn't want to play PF?

:nonono: :nonono: :giveup: Biz will be a restricted FA after this season. Unless he shows tremendous improvement, we will get nothing for drafting him #7. He is a good rim protector "sometimes" and an Athletic freak,but he was that when we drafted him. He's better suited for a team like Phoenix..TRADE HIM for a SF and then use Vonleh at center for some minutes. OR better yet solve all our roster holes with 1 trade.

Trade Checker # 6507617 Len and Green from PHX for Neal and BIZ
We get our starting 3 and backup 5. Phx inserts Neal and BIZ into their running offense and still have 3 SF on their roster. :nod: :nod:

It worked on the Chrome browser on my phone. I still don't understand the point you were trying to make. That he's getting sued? That's old news.

Agree somewhat, but our 3 spot is fine right now. He does need to make a big leap this year, though.

The guy promotes his site in just about every post he makes. It simply shows graphs generated from stats.

We don't need to replace our dependable center that we've groomed for Alex "Brittle Sticks" Len.

We need to bring in Bill Lambeer to show this guy a few things. Bad Boy stuff.
