Henderson needs to start 

Post#1 » by 99problems » Thu Oct 29, 2009 4:05 pm

Graham is horrible.

Henderson didn't light the world on fire but I think the sooner Brown puts his confidence in him the sooner he turns into the player the Bobcats need him to be. He at least had the poise to knock down that jumper in the 3rd quarter for our first points of the 2nd half.

And I know he played 25 minutes but the Graham experiment obviously is not doing any good. Unless Flip is back against the Knicks (which he won't be) put Henderson out there and let him start learning the game. He's old and experienced enough that I think he'll be fine.

Terrence Williams had 15 and 10 last night. The Bobcats are going to see nights like that this season from Henderson

agreed. there is no reason for graham to start over henderson. graham is not a shooting guard. he cant shoot, he cant dribble and he cant create. graham plays good defense but so does henderson.

hopefully flip will be healthy soon. even when raja returns i think it will take a while for him to be productive.

agreed. I just watched the replay of the game, and Graham looked beyond awful. He's an undersized power forward, but not a damn shooting guard.

As long as Bell is out, start Henderson. He can't be worse than Graham.

I was not impressed with Graham either. Starting Henderson couldn't hurt.

Wanted that for game 1, and still endorse it from here on out, even when Bell returns with his wounded wing.
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

I'm in. He needs to be in there. The faster he gets up to speed the better. I happen to believe the guy is going to do some big things in the NBA! :D
