What is up with Biedrens?

[BTP]

He had plenty of focus when he was playing for his first big contract back in 2008.

The guy signed a big deal and then his production fell off a cliff. He's Tag with a tan.

To be fair...The first year after his big contract his numbers even improved further. But after that he just regressed or got uninterested for whatever reason. Might be coaching, his personality or a mixture...But he definately should get the hooker snapshot on his locker. Motivation for his contract year. Good play leads to more and better hookers. And less STDs long term
Another reason for his regression might be the change of defense in the NBA. He's basically only able to convert dishes and boards on the offensive glass. Thus he suffers from the 2.9 defense and lack of athleticism. Help defense real terror these days.

Would you mind elaborating on that?

Too obvious. You're trolling me! Even though I like fundamental statements better than spitting out what's on my mind w/o proof. You're not trapping me today!

He's much more interested in hookers than basketball.

Playing for Golden State, can you blame him?

I anticipate Corbin sparing now effort to help him regain his double-double averages.

Biedrins is 6'11" with a 7'0.5" wingspan. He is an above average athlete. He is only 27. He can guard the 4 or the 5. He could become a very useful big man.

He had a great run from 2006-2009 when Don Nelson gave him confidence.

Why couldn't Malone or one of our coaches work with him to help him develop some confidence?

Maybe a new fanbase will be able to give him a chance to relax.

Perhaps he can even improve from 0 ppg he averaged last year.

Let me unravel the mystery of his mediocrity for you all. It's not just confidence, it's motivation. He doesn't care. He also likes to party. I don't see that changing, although I could be wrong (and hope I'm wrong).

Biedrins will get along great with Kanter then.
Kanter is a party animal.

So, is he gonna grab some rebounds and play defense? If he can do those two things for 10 minutes a night and we end up with a lottery pic partly due to him scoring zero points, I'm fine with it. A real rebuild is gonna be cool to watch, since we've never really seen one.
