The only plus that I have for Dunlap coaching this bunch over Silas is that Kemba is starting over Sessions because I'm sure that wouldn't have happened under the previous coach's watch

Biyombo needs to go back to the bench, and used very sparingly. Let him develop in practice. It's been a long time since he's had that 1 good offensive game where he didn't miss point blank shots in the paint versus the Raptors. Oh yea, because that was the Bobcats last win

Pretty hard when you don't get the ball to a guy for a dozen or so consecutive games and then you get him the ball in not the best situations and expect something amazing to happen.

How about we get him the ball once in a while EARLY when he has his defender sealed deep in the post and under one on one coverage for a change?

Biyombo was +10 and Haywood -13 in similar minutes tonight... just saying

I think Biyombo needs more reps in game situations and we should feed him the ball a lot more. How else is he going to practice.

Say what y'all want, but Biyombo doesn't know what to do with the basketball when he gets it in the paint. That's why he get ignored down there like every other incompetent scoring big in the NBA (i.e. Joel Anthony, Andres Biedrins, and etc.). I sure as hell wouldn't keep feeding a guy that's 0 for 4 on point blank shots when the game is on the line either

Bismack's problem is that he bends over in the post instead of standing straight up and making his move. Don't know why he does it but boy is it stupid.

Drove all the way home from Columbia to catch my first game of the season in person and they manage to blow a huge lead. Worst part was at halftime telling my girlfriend not to get comfortable because we always suck in the 3rd so they'll come back. Lo and behold, they erase the 17 points in one quarter.

Oh well, I made sure to stop and pick up a bottle of that new Devil's Cut earlier so ill at least have some enjoyment by the end of the night.

I'm pretty sure Biz posted a double-double a few games ago. :\

Its pretty obvious that we need a post player of some sort. It looked embarrassing seeing the ball being swung around the perimeter while the shot clock winds down.
