LAS VEGAS New Charlotte Bobcats coach Steve Clifford doesn’t want to get caught shorthanded next season at point guard or among the big men.

 

That’s Clifford’s general philosophy in building an NBA roster. With the Bobcats signing free-agent center Al Jefferson and re-signing power forward Josh McRoberts, the roster has been firmed up. The last major step will be resolving whether shooting guard Gerald Henderson is back, either through a multi-year extension or on the one-year qualifying offer.

 

Clifford sees signing a third point guard and retaining another big man as priorities.

 

“You have to have a third point guard. If your team’s not organized in this league, you have no chance to play well,” Clifford said at summer-league practice Wednesday.

 

“I think you have to have six bigs,” he added, referring to centers and power forwards.

 

“We have some flexibility in that (small forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist) will play some power forward. But if you don’t have enough bodies up front and you go to Memphis and one of them has the flu, that means somebody (undersized) has to guard Zach Randolph.”

 

This explains why they had (have) interest in Greg Oden, Antawn Jamison, and Jamaal Tinsley.

If we seriously want a PF, Drew Gooden could be a good backup choice.

 

It's such a change, we usually have hardly any big men, but Clifford seems to value them pretty high.  I like that.

He can take the fur ball on the back of his head somewhere else.

Everybody is on dyson ands aying he sucks and is no count. But honestly I'm one of the ones who see his potential and like what he bring to our team. He is an efficient scorer with Derrick rose talent and prolly can destroy kemba. Laugh if u want guys. We have our star. We just gotta give him a shot.

Is what u would say if u were better at trolling.

I literally had my jaw drop... Lol

The feeling was much more than just a sports disappointment..I just started to dive into..wow no wonder society is so messed up..you could show a video of someone randomly being shot and 35% would support the shooter.

Thank god it was a joke...my feelings on society as a whole must be on thin ice latley lol.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years.

      I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
