Al Jefferson

It's time that this guy deserve a thread. Al Jefferson has become the best player to ever put on a Bobcats jersey, and that happened in only 35 games. The man is a difference maker!

 

I'd be really disappointed if the man doesn't make his "first" All-Star appearance this year. Jefferson is playing as great as any center in the league right now. I might just be crazy, but I am stunned that team USA hasn't even considered him being a candidate for the 2016 Olympic.

Anyone know where he was at in the initial all-star returns? Sadly, I never voted lol. I have a hard time believing he is going to make it ahead of Hibbert.

Being that he started so slow, I didn't think he'd even be mentionable until this late stretch.

Hibbert and bosh will make it before him im pretty sure

Trade em. I'm tired of his poo.

I'm 100% sure after this comment you just troll this board.

 

He was the only one out there that gave a fug and didn't give up, he had a 25 point 9 rebound night. Most teams wish they had a center scoring like that.

Truth be told he's an excellent second option. Too bad he's never had a 1st option to go with including here. I still feel lil we are missing our 1st option player. 

 

I am still thinking that is a SG. 

 

PG: Kemba- Great 3rd Option

SG: Hopefully we can a Superstar in the next draft

SF: MKG (Many have given up but I still feel like he is the glue and can do so much once we get shooters around him

PF: Unknown (McRoberts is our offensive glue guy but doesn't scare anybody and too early to tell on Zeller but on paper he is a great fit. in person, he is just too weak and can't finish around the hoop)

C: Jefferson (Great 2nd Option)

 

Bench

Sessions and/or Pargo

Hendo

McRoberts or Zeller

Biz

- Not a bad bench

    • I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.
    • Depends if they see the writing on the wall with their roster and contracts and decide to bite the bullet and begin a complete rebuild and roster overhaul.  I have no clue why some franchises (IE us) refuse to do this and keep half assing trying to win 8 games or so.  Do it correctly, take your lumps and build a contender.  We shall see what loomis decides.
    • Each team plays 17 games.  I do not see why they don't just have each team play one international game per year.  Neutral site game, 8 home, 8 away.
