    oh right, it's not his fault for anything, it's not his fault whenever he gets the rebound he brings the ball down and most of the time gets stripped instead of getting the rebound and ramming it back down.

    Just like it's not his fault he reacts to every single call against him (and most of the time, it's the RIGHT call) - in fact, he's the only player I have seen recently foul out in the 3rd quarter.
    Maybe it's just that you exaggerate. Maybe that's why it's hard to take what you write seriously. "Way way way" behind in his development. Really, one "way" wouldn't do? "Most of the time" gets stripped. Really, most of the time he gets stripped? Not some of the time? Maybe it's your expectations that need to be adjusted. Not sure what you expected? JV just turned 23 a few days ago. He has a lot of developing to do. There are a lot of problems on this team, JV's growing pains are the least of my concerns. I just wish he got to play through his mistakes the way other players (Demar, Lowry, Vazquez, Lou, Amir) get to play through turnovers, bad shot selection, poor defence and not boxing out.

      Why does every thread end up about JV?

          Yeah I just responded to a post mentioning JV. Sticking with the theme of this thread, given how the team is currently constructed I do think we could have a primarily defensive and rebounding 4. Points and even shot blocking being gravy. Lowry and DD are going to be our primary scorers. I have heard them talk about he-who-shouldn't-be-mentioned being the 3rd option but I'm yet to see it. When Lou and Vazquez come in they seem to have the green light from everywhere too. Maybe just with how seldom the ball moves in this offence we never quite get the ball to the 3rd option regardless of who is on the floor. This team has plenty of scorers, not enough defenders or reboundera. And if they shared the ball more the established scorers might even be able to do so more efficiently.

            Why does a thread about signing a centre end up about JV? Hard to say...

            Meantime, Biyombo is not a game changer defensively. He's decent, ranking about 10 spots ahead of JV in DRPM among C's.

            But he really is brutal offensively - even with the offensive rebounds his ORPM was a very poor -2.7. Not Perkins-esque, but more than enough to offset his above average defence.

            In any case, I'd be fine with a middling offer for him to backup JV. But to make him a primary target, or intended starter? Not on board.

              They are though. I'm not gonna count any shot taken past 3 feet by any of these guys because that's a bad shot regardless.

              MPG Comparison:
              BB - 19.4
              DJ - 34.4
              TT - 26.8

              Bismack shoots 65.7% from 0-3 feet
              DeAndre shoots 73.9% from 0-3 feet
              Thompson shoots 65.1% from 0-3 feet

              73.7% of BB's 2.8 FGA's are from 0-3 feet
              91.8% of DJ's 6.5 FGA's are from 0-3 feet
              66.4% of TT's 6.0 FGA's are from 0-3 feet

              BB makes 1.4 FG from 0-3 feet
              DJ makes 4.4 FG from 0-3 feet
              TT makes 2.6 FG from 0-3 feet

              BB pulls down pretty much the same amount of offensive boards per minute as TT (0.1289 to 0.1231), less than DJ (0.1395) but takes way less FGA. This is because BB gets stripped of the ball way more often so the O-Reb goes to waste.

              BB's Tov%: 16.5%
              DJ's Tov%: 12.8%
              TT's Tov%: 12.2%

              If Bismack ever learns to hold onto the ball he'll be able to be as good as Thompson, but he'll never ever reach DJ level.
              Without running the numbers, I'd guess that Ed Davis does a most of the things that TT does as good or better, and could be had for way cheaper.

              TT seems to be getting a bit overhyped, not just on this board, but even the playoff commentators are saying he could be a max player? C'mon. The power of playoff exposure and playing with Lebron.

                Interesting. He's probably gonna come much cheaper than TT. But can he play the 4? And if Casey's coming back, I think he's just gonna be another Steamer or Bebe rotting on the bench as Casey will stick with that bullshit lineup playing 4 guards and 1 stretch PF.

                  Your proving my point. BB is on par with one of the best rebounders in the league.
                  I'm starting to think you can't read properly or just ignore everything you read except for what you want to hear.

                  No I'm not proving your point of BB having even a comparative amount of offensive skill to DJ, TT or Allen in any way.

                  I said BB gets as many offensive rebounds per minute as TT. That doesn't mean he's on par rebounding wise.

                  TT will never be a shot blocker like BB is.
                  Obviously BB is a better shot blocker, but how in the world that relates in any way to BB having offensive skills is beyond me.

                  Also Deandre Jordan wasn't DJ when he was 22 as well.
                  Yes, believe it or not, DeAndre Jodran was still DJ (DeAndre Jordan, in case you don't comprehend) at 22. He's been DeAndre Jordan his whole life.

                  In 4 years from now and BB if playing 35+ mins a game. I wouldn't be surprised if his putting up DJ type numbers.
                  Get ready to be disappointed.

                  Never said I wanted TT, only used him as a comparison because someone else mentioned him. He is overhyped, but definitely better that Ed Davis.

                    You do know DJ didn't average a double double in till Doc Rivers started coaching the clippers right? Before he got there he was like averaging 7, 7 and 2 blck. His only been dominant for two years now. If you compare his numbers before Doc their pretty close to DJ even though he played more minutes than BB.

                      Why don't you have the same patience with JV? DJ took several years to become the player he is now, his third year wasn't anywhere as good as JV's third year. In fact the three years before Rivers came over to coach, DJ had similar minutes to Jonas' third year, not once did he come close to averaging similar stats to Jonas' third year.

                      If JV's development is slow, what the hell do you call Jordan's development? And if you're going to argue Jordan wasn't under a good coach, well I mean...

                      On top of that, BB has played 4 years in the NBA now, and he's never shown the passing, finishing, shooting that Jonas can probably do in one game. You're going to have patience with him? Over JV? That's hilariously hypocritical isn't it?

                        i've said in many posts for the off season that Biyombo the ideal/type of target Masai will go for to address the back up 5...active rim protector and defender with elite rebounding skills and he's only 22, has a connection to Ujiri through a lot of NBA Africa stuff and won't require a lot to sign so Masai can address SF and PF and stay flexible for 2016. Biyombo to Toronto is a pretty safe bet. 6.4 rebounds and 1.5 blocks in just 19.1 minutes per game is solid.

                          On top of all the rest, I think Masai already has his backup C in BeBe, just doesn't have a coach who will use him.

                            Regarding the op. I wouldn't try and get biyombo. We already have a young backup centre, don't need another that will probably get overpaid just to be here.

                            I'd rather ed Davis coming back. He'd be cheap too

                              I don't know how much Biyombo would cost. There will be some interest in him I guess...but I don't know if any team is willing to offer him anything too good. Could cost the same as Ed Davis, who's opting out to look for a decent deal.

                                Tru but biyombo is a rfa. Itd have to be an overopay in order for the bobcats not to match.
