The Bobcats were pretty much the only suitors for not-so-coveted free agent Al Jefferson last offseason. There’s a reason no one really wanted him; he is a black hole who doesn’t play defense. But the Bobcats felt that he was the missing piece to their playoff puzzle and signed him to a fairly ridiculous deal. It’s not like they were having to vie for his services with other teams. Why overpay?
Too late now I guess. And he is putting up pretty decent numbers this season. And he’s way more of a net positive than any of the other horrible centers that the Bobcats could have trotted out. Bismack Biyombo is worthless on offense. Cody Zeller? LMAO. Cody should get Al a Christmas card that says “Thank you for not making me have to start at center and embarrass myself.”
