i can see some contenders wanting biz for depth, he's shown he can be plugged into any team and play his role.

Just saw a rumor that the Heat and Spoelstra waited until his divorce was finalized before signing that record coaching contract

Take a look under turnover percentage. Maybe we can run some pick and roll with Biz and Ish

i mean, if you're signing Biz to be a playmaker, you're an idiot. :lol:

put him on a contender and ask him to set screens, defend and rebound and he will be fine. That's why Phoenix kept him on.

meanwhile scoot was -56 last night and 4-for-21, the twins have faded, black can't score,
maybe this draft wasn't actually all that impressive outside of wemby. i dunno.
i suspect this draft gonna have a lot of late bloomers, gonna take a while to see who is actually any good. maybe whitmore is the guy everyone cant believe fell 5 years from now.
clearly not the generational amazing draft we heard about for past 2 years.

lol wow. Looks like Detroit gave up some conditional 2nd round picks to get rid of Bagley and Livers so that Monty couldn't keep playing them.

They are in a unique coaching hell that might even surpass the Steve Clifford haunting in Charlotte because of Monty's insane contract.

Would anyone take him here? He's supposedly a tough coach and that clashed with the players.

I want the other coach the Bucks recently fired - Budenholzer. He's an older, more experienced Borrego. We can do much, much worse than that.

Return to Charlotte Hornets
