He can play some D, can pass well at times, and is a good rebounder, but his shooting has been terrible this year, and I would think that Charlotte is a bit upset that they signed him.

The other issue with him coming to NYC will always be the distractions he will face if he ever plays here.

Biyambo is intriguing as a defender and rebounder, but the guy has been in the league for three years and he still looks like a guy who just started playing the game on the offensive end. .3 APG, 50% free throw shooter, and he has no consistent midrange game to speak of- no way you give up assets to get the guy unless you have to dump someone.

Well, that was one of players of many he Briggs got right, just took time to develop, some other guys he liked included

Vucevic
Andrew Bynum
Olindipo (as he was a mid 2nd rounder at mock drafts at first)
Bogut (to a certain extent)

and many other players

Some of like Brandon Wright

Yes, he was also wrong about many others, however, he states his analysis before people can see them fully develop do to "potential" some of which do not develop to their ceilings
And that deserves credit regardless

While many here on the site like to say things like "WHY DIDN'T WE DO THIS AND THIS" but that is after the results are in and who cannot go look back and said we should have did such and such after they were proven to be steals...

I think Lance is a rare type of talent, when I saw Olindip before he entered the League, I compared Olindop to a poor version of Lance but had the luxury of developing correctly with a higher IQ
While he is still young, maybe some of his flaws can be corrected, and with Hairston and their chemistry issues with Kemba, it is very possible Lance could be moved

Biyombo is what he is, an athletic PF/C with great athleticism/length/mobilty/hustle energy type player
While he isn't an ALL STAR by any means or any type of flashy player, he is a type of player that team mates would love to play with
His ability to block and alter shots and run the floor as a BIG is quite under rated, as still has the chance to continue to develop a better OFFENSE game
Lets not forget Ben Wallace is much smaller in terms of height and he had a very good career while it lasted

So make a suggestion that is realistic for the Knicks and The Bobcats and maybe someone on the staff reads stuff from this board, as this is one of the better basketball forums if not the best

no really.

He played well.

16 points
8 rebounds
3 assists

He is not that good of a player obviously, but he had a good game.

These new guys at least hustle and play team ball.

My bad, I'm talking about Lance Stephenson. I will try and be more clear next time.

He did nothing however, I was actually really impressed with his D.
