He is still a big work in progress, but tonight you can saw a flash of what he can be. I dont know he will ever develope a post game but he set some amazing screens tonight,grabbed alot of boards, and cloged the lanes inside which freed up other guys to grab boards.

On D you saw what he can do. Another couple of seasons and he will be our starter.

He has had his games in the past and tonight that show what he is truly capable of. Really good defense, rebounding and strong scoring down low. When I worked for the bobcats last year, he was the hardest working player on the team by far. I didn't think he would ever come out of the gym. Just constantly working on his moves and shooting. I think between his experience, maturation, support from teammates and guidance from Dunlap he will become a very good player for us. He is just so young and raw right now. I think that is why Dunlap is giving him so many minutes right now. He sees his potential.

Trick with Biz is that he has to play within himself. He really needs his teammates to set him up properly, he often gets criticized when he ends up with the ball in his hands near the foul line with the shot clock running down, and he's forced to create something off the dribble.

That's not his game, not yet anyways, and it's important that the other guys on the floor keep him in a position to be successful.

Bismack has been disappointing to me this year, but I, along with many other fans probably expected a little too much out of him. I really doubt that he ever becomes much of an offensive threat, but if he can improve his fundamentals, rebounding, defense, and awareness of where to be on the court at all times -- well, I see no reason why he can't be a Tyson Chandler like player.

Searching for any Biz thread to post this.

We always talk about having Hakeem teach Biz but watching that video made me realize a few things.

1. Hakeem is better than any big we have even at his age

2. I miss post games in the NBA and definitely with the Bobcats

3. I can't see any player we have making those type of moves except MKG

I loved the Biz pick and still feel like he can be a great player for us. He teases me with an amazingly athletic move and then jumps in the air and falls down because someone sneezed on the first row. I know he is 20 yrs old and he can develop into something special but how do you all see Biz.

Starter on Playoff Team?

Role Player on Playoff Team?

Bust?

What do you all think his future stats will be?

Biz has disappointed me a ton. He's not very good defensively (although he is a good shot blocker), and he's not anything more than an average rebounder. He does get his fair share of offensive rebounds, but he's not even our best defensive rebounder and I feel like he should be.

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      They traded away their 1st next year also to get James Pearce Jr. Really hope this blows up in the Falcons face. I don't care how it happens, I just want to win the division this year. Zero sympathy for other team's issues. And our pass rush looks like it needs all the help it can get.

      I would have released him this season, tbh and worked with Christensen out there.

      Level Of Enthusiasm Going into Game 1

      By Seltzer · Posted

      10/10. We're due for some good luck, and I think this team is much better than what we've had the last 2 seasons. Defensive injuries could derail us b/c our depth there is still questionable. Still worried about the pass rush getting pressure without blitzing. Pleasantly surprised by the secondary and run defense.  Dan Morgan has done a lot to resurrect this roster from the deplorable position Fitterer left it in by showing some scouting chops with hitting on these guys drafted in the later rounds or UDFAs. Lathan Ransom & Corey Thornton both look like they fit this scheme and the NFL isn't too big for them.  I'm as excited for the rookie trifecta of T-Mac, Scourton, and Princely as I can remember. On paper, this offense is the most talented since 2021, maybe 2017, and maybe 2015. None of that means this team will produce any better, but this team has offensive talent & depth like we have rarely had in team history. If you don't believe me, go Google it. We've had some awful offensive collections overall in many years, to varying degrees mitigated by superstar talents like Steve Smith, Christian Mccaffrey, or Cam Newton.  I honestly think the collective offensive talent in 2025 may be better, but Cam was so otherworldly in 2015 & 2017 that he covered any flaws. Seriously, though, Cam doesnt get enough love for 2017. I think that may have been his best season. In general, Cam doesn't get enough respect IMHO. Both in college and in the NFL, Cam took teams that without him would have had no chance and won. True definition of a guy who elevated his team. To be clear, I am in no way am I saying this team will be better than 2017 or 2015. My point is that the offensive talent is there on offense if Bryce can unlock it.  I've been a Bryce supporter, but there are no excuses not to perform with this group. This isn't the disaster we gave him in 2023 or a new scheme like in 2024 where I think he hadn't mentally removed from his rookie season to start. I dont know how you couldnt be excited about that. And we still compete in a division that isn't insurmountable. I got got in 2023 like most of us in buying into the team propaganda, but in general, I think I'm pretty realistic about the team. I knew in my heart we would be bad last year. I wasnt expecting the defense to be that bad or Bryce to start off that poorly, but I had no expectations whatsoever for making the playoffs. And I genuinely think we will be competitive all year this season. I think we win 8-9 games and compete for the division. I think the ceiling is 11 wins, and the floor is 7. The good news is after next week, we will all be proven right or proven wrong. Keep Pounding!
