Henderson Remains Priority, Point Guard and Forward Expected To Be Added

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.

    • Because Young is so historically bad that it just skews too far outside the normal deviations that perspective is easily lost. That or they just don't want to believe it.  The struggles last year would have been more about the infighting and poor roster building or idiot owner's hiring practices than with Stroud. He wouldn't have been as good but he wouldn't have been ruined here and the pressure was not Carr-esk if you take out the Young created portion from his playing style.  Dude is a young guy on a team coached by a Defensive guy building a good D but not building up the O in year 2 of his HC 1st time gig. Seems familiar... Go look at his output this year and not just some crappy Thursday night implosion game, I would take that in a second and never ever look back every time without a shred of doubt while eating 4 of those games a year with a giant smile on my face. 
    • There is zero reason to sit him if he is ready to go.  Putting him on a shelf and attempting to protect does him no favors. 
    • Stroud us nit the first QB thus franchise has missed on. He also won't be the last.
