He also is amongst the top ten in opponent's fg percent at about 38 percent.

He's turned into a good player already but needs them damn minutes.

Call me crazy but I hope we trade Al Jefferson.

I almost And1'd your post until you said trade Jefferson. Jefferson makes us good even when he's shooting 30% because he's a legitimate post threat with moves. Trading Jefferson for anything less than a 25 ppg wing would be silly and nobody giving us that for him.


I can think of many trades involving Jefferson that I would do.

Charlotte trades:

Al Jefferson

Chicago trades:

Carlos Boozer+Charlotte first

Just as an example.


SMH. I won't even respond to that trade proposal because I already know we have a wide margin of difference between how good and bad we think Boozer would be on this roster.

dont really know why we would trade Al, the biggest FA signing in CHA history and we trade him half way through the season might send a bad message to other FA's his caliber

I don't think Boozer will be that good but the pick will be ;)

That's the only reason I wouldn't want to trade him.

Did y'all already forget how free agency went for Al? Nobody wants him.
Humble yourself.

I think GM's were waiting for the dust to settle on Dwight before chasing Al.

He signed for us so quick that we really didn't get to see who wanted him.

No one was going to pay what we did, tho. Pretty sure we'd have to take a bad contact back in a trade.

I can't wait to see if Clifford throws Adrien under the Hibbert again or if he actually plays Biz.

I don't know why but Zeller reminds me of the Vulture from Spider-Man comics:

Based on this tweet, I feel like being intuitive. I've been having some great luck gambling against the odds lately. I'm predicting a great performance out of Bismack Biyombo tonight against the Lakers. Maybe to the tune of 15 points, 12 rebounds, & 3 blocks

That's correct. 14 points (twice) is currently his career-high in points

Biz is playing so well I think Clifford will be forced to try some Jefferson/Biyombo lineups soon.

This. I'd much rather see some big ball lineups with McBob at the 3 rather than the 2/3 brickfest that is Gordon/Hendo or Gordon/Taylor or Gordon/Tolliver.
