Back to back 100 point games: Offense is better than Defense

Having two, great defensive but offensively challaged players out, improves this offense and balances the floor better for the post guys.

I dont want Jeff Taylor out but I think the injuries to Biz, MKG is a blessing in disguise to get Henderson and Kemba a lot of touches to get them to be more assertive on offense.

Having More minutes for the best shooter on the team in Gordon playing and getting more minutes for the suprisingly timid Zeller only helps the team for the future.

There is a reason the team has scored back to back 100 point game with the key injuries to MKG and Biz in that same time. 100 points is a challange for this team most the season.

I think by nature Henderson has too much of a passive mentality and defaults to teammates when he has the ability to score. If that turnarourd jumper is on he is hard to guard..just getting him to take it more than 3 times a game is the hard part.

Reinserting BIz and MKG back into the rotation I think the coaches can better utilize the rotation and have the most effective lineups.

I know we took Biz and MKG high but with both having raw offensive games I think maybe limiting the minutes for both while sacrificing defense for offense is a good thing. Jeff Taylor is a more balanced player who needs to get more touches and to have a larger role on the team.

With Taylor back Henderson and Kemba starting....Al Jefferson gets more room on that left block and MKG has plenty of minutes to spell Henderson and Taylor.

Just less MKG AND Biz on the floor together limiting the offense.

I've been telling people this for two seasons, nobody believed me.

 

MKG is an amazing player but, he hurts us.. Biz is an amazing defensive player but, he hurts us. I can't count how many times I've said we need more Gordon on the court.

We played Philadelphia, who is dead last in the league averaging 110 points per game against while they were missing their best wing defender (MCW).

 

We played GSW, who averages 100 points per game against while they were missing their ONLY wing defender (Iggy).

 

Keep these things in mind before making any quick decisions.

So having we are scoring back to back 100+ point games with Biz n MKG eating up a lot of minutes? I love MKG n indifferent in Biz..not saying they are not good players. Just that the Bobcats have better rhythm n spacing on offense..nothing earth shattering or controversial imo.

      What you are saying isn't always true and I'll give you several examples to demonstrate this. 1) The best player on the board at the end of in round 1 by all consensus is RB (top 15 player in draft who slips b/c of the devaluation of the RB position). Your team is in desperate need of a LT because the current one is getting your QB killed. You already have a serviceable RB in place. The LT has a 2nd round grade and you have the first pick on day 2 of the draft Who do you choose? 2) Your run defense was abysmal the previous season. A DT in round 2 does not provide much in terms of pass rush, but most reports have him rated as the best pure run stuffing DT in the draft. The two highest rated players on your board at the time are a TE and tweener at OLB/DE who slipped into round 2 after a run on WR's. Who do you choose? 3) Your pass rush rush is solid across the board. You even have guy coming off of the bench to provide production. Your secondary in below average. No Safety on the roster is a difference maker and as a unit the squad doesn't have an INT. The highest rated player on the board is a DE. The 5th highest rated player on the board is a an intelligent ball hawking Safety. Which player would make the team immediately better?  1) I think the BPA logic applies when your team is solid across the board and you can afford to draft for depth 2) I think it also applies when your team stinks and any solid player will be an immediate upgrade over what you already have. I agree that you should NEVER reach for a player when you are need at a position like we did for Bryce Young. But I also think if there's is a player on the board that will fill a glaring weakness you need to take him even if a player with a higher over all ranking is available at another position (which isn't a need)

      Bryce Young excels at dividing Panthers fans. That seems to be what he's best at.
