Biyombo #2 in blocks/48min

He's 15th in the league in blocks per game, playing only about half the minutes of everyone above him.

Once this guy learns to play a little basketball, he should be easily leading the league.

yes i think he will average 2.5 bpg when he gets the minutes, everytime he goes 1 on 1 with a player i just think he's going to block them lol

[Zoolander]

He really has a feel for when to leave his man and colapse down in the paint to make a block.

I have even higher expectations for him due to a couple of things...

1- He has no clue what he is doing yet so to be getting the blocks he is, in limited time, is pretty special.

2 - When he figures out how to be a solid help defender he will end up getting 2 blocks a game just on that alone. I know Zoolander said he has a feel for when to leave his man. I completely disagree and see him make timing mistakes constantly but that will all change with some time.

3 - Block selection - I know that shot selection is something we all talk about but block selection applies to Biyombo. Now don't get me wrong, I love seeing him being aggresive and going for everything but as his minutes increase, he will end up fouling too much like that. Again, this will all work itself out just fine.

Ultimately, and I know I have said it multiple times, I have higher expectations for Biyombo than anyone who has ever worn a Bobcats uniform.

While I do agree with your expectations of Biyombo... I think Zoolander is right in the fact that for an 19 year old kid, he has about the best jump timing i've seen. A lot of that is due to having arms so long that the erase any timing mistake he might make. He can definitely get better, but his timing is pretty solid to begin with.

At the moment i am afraid to say that i am of the opinon that he leaves his man too much to try and block. If the offload it quikcly in the lane to the free man they get a lot of easy unopposed dunks. He is sacrficing his man defence at the minute for blocks. I like he is eager to get after everything, he jsut has to learn when to go and when not to. He has to learn the type of players in this league, like Jordan farmar is going to look to shift it, where as derrick rose will probably always go himself. Also, i would love to see where Biyombo is in fouls per 48 minutes....

Sorry for so much negativity, i really do LOVE this guy but i thought i should just point out some point that others might have missed

I agree that his jump timing is excellent.

What I was referring to was the comment about him knowing when to leave his man to help. I think he has a long, long way to go there.

As stated by Plowman, when he leaves his man too early or too often, it makes someone else have to rotate to the center or, more often, it leads to an uncontested dunk. Leaving too late leads to fouls. Either way, this is something that will simply be learned by experience and time.
