Why not Biyombo?

[Gronk Brady]

Why is Neil Olshey not pursuing Bizmack Biyombo??? Our biggest need coming into free agency was a big man that can protect the rim and not one word of Blazers interest in Biyombo. He is a top notch rim protector that is only 24 years old with a 7'6" wing span. This guy truly has potential to be the next Ben Wallace. Instead Neil is targeting 35 year old plodding Pau Gasol who's game will fall off a cliff any day now and Ian Mahinmi who is a downgrade from Plumlee. What is Neil thinking??? So frustrating!

 

[santeesioux]

He's not very good and we would have to renounce most of our guys to get him?

 

[Scalma]

Because he's older than Gasol

 

[KeepOnRollin]

He is getting more than Mahinmi is one of the reasons.

Have you not been following the history of this franchise? We have to pay a scrub 70 million just to get his butt on the floor. No one wants to play here. If not for non-veteran contract status I doubt we'd even have a team.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Maybe he politely declined our request for a meeting?

I would have to agree I would go after Bizmack Biyombo he young and a good defender.

he has "hands of stone" like Magliore, boy thats a bad memory

Somebody who isn't as lazy as me should go find one of @Boob-No-More 's posts about Biyombo that show why not. He's barely even average. He's not an elite rim protector or rebounder and he can't score.
