The Bismack Biyombo Thread

[JT2006]

his shoulders are so big that his biceps look normal

[Kabookalu]

Those biceps aren't big?

Big relative to other NBA players? I wouldn't say so at all.

[KembaWalker]

Bismacks arms are very well developed for his age and wingspan. Look at guys like Davis, Valanciunas, Henson, young dwight etc

Ben Wallace as a college senior looks not unlike current Biz:

[Kabookalu]

At this very moment though I don't see the jacked upper body or biceps. They're big relative to normal people, but relative to other NBA players it's rather ordinary to me. This is not to say he can't get bigger though, which I think he definitely will.

That is because you are comparing him to the vets who have been working with nba trainers for years. Rember biz is only 20 and this is only his 2nd year in the league. This poster said what you need to realize.

Imagine what Biz will look like in five years. Biz is strong. Just ask Dwight Howard about that.

[JT2006]

I'd rather fight dwight howard than biz because I could diffuse the situation with humorous religious jokes.

Yeah and I think it's actually encouraging that he's doing this well while still being half a decade from his physical prime. I'm just saying at this moment, which is discounting the future. His biceps are big, but relative to other big men I just think they're ordinary, nothing outstanding. He needs to get bigger triceps, shoulders, and a stronger overall back though.

The black Andris Biedrins?!?

[LamarMatic7]

granted, he had his struggles on the offensive end last night, however, 11 rebounds in 24 minutes is impressive.

against boozer, noah, and taj gibson no less

Last night was his best rebounding game IMO. He finally started to use his long reach and full extension.

[Kembastockton]

You know I was thinking if we draft Cody Zeller we will have our version of the last Piston's championship front court. Biz (Ben), MKG(Tayshawn), and Zeller(Sheed)

I'd be happy if we drafted Zeller and he became anything like Rasheed!

[Elden Payton]

Sheed was/is probably the most underrated post defender of his generation, put it in stone that Zeller doesn't touch Sheed on defense.

[Kembastockton]

I really don't have a comparison for Cody. The first time I saw him play he must have had a Red Bull, because he looked like a young Kevin McHale. This year he must be resting on his laurels or something, because he seems like a totally different player.

Could only catch the closing moments of the Pistons game, however I noticed Biyombo notched a double double with 17 boards and 10 points. Anybody want to fill me in on his latest performance?

they shot well over 50% in the first half and he still managed to get like 12-13 boards in just the first half. Even with the overtime he played less than 35 minutes, so you know he was putting in work out there. had a dunk, and a good putback hook shot

I don't know how to explain his performance. I barely even noticed the 17 boards and the 10 points because he was still getting pushed out of position and missing easy shots but he did a great job of hedging while defending the pick and roll in the 2nd half and making free throws. Biyombo held down his starting spot tonight I guess.

well the rest of our team had 28 boards (not counting balls that go out of bounds). he wasn't even in the game for over ten minutes, meaning most of the defensive rebounds we got when he was out there, he got. We need him to do that, really. his rebound rate took a little bump this game, I'll bet

[KembaWalker]

great game
