Alright, Im back on the Biyombo train. He has more than enough personality to make up for his inability to catch a basketball.

We both know he must have copy and pasted that though. No hash tags. Thats alarming.

Re: "Guys?" The Bismack Biyombo Thread
They also need a backup center. When Jefferson went to the bench, the lead often went away. The backup has to do essential reserve center things such as catch the ball, put on a move and make a basket
Biyombo is working his ass off according to his twitter, so I have faith in him.

I was reading the paper, and was liking what I was reading.... And I told myself " Woaw, it's probably Rick's best paper so far!"
And then ... I saw it was not his paper.

Re: "Guys?" The Bismack Biyombo Thread
That was a decent article, but I get the feeling he didn't pay much attention to how we played whenever Jefferson wasn't on the court. Sure, we took a hit but it wasn't anywhere close to what he's claiming. Our biggest drop (by far) was when Kemba went out of the game. That and a shooter to pair next to MKG are easily our two biggest needs. I'd follow that up with another tough big than can rebound.
That's why myself and so many other people on this board want us to take Stauskas. He literally fills our two biggest needs.

Poor Biz.
Exploitation and sounds exactly like what happens to African football/soccer players.
I'm sure MJ has a milllion corporate lawyers and also civil lawyers and I hope he can provide the proper guidance for Biz on this matter.

Re: "Guys?" The Bismack Biyombo Thread
I am guessing he was tricked into signing something as a kid and that is where this comes from.
I hope they find out this guy is a con artist who preys on young talented kids and they deny the lawsuit and show him for what he is ruining any chance for him to do this to anyone else.
