relax, he was only a rookie and still very youngOriginally Posted by Stringer Bell 32
Everything turned sour towards Tyrus from my POV once he said that "I'm only doing it for the money," during the dunk contest.. I thought that to be a very selfish and immature act..
Egotistical
I'll give you that one
Money hungry
I guess, you've never heard of Latrell Sprewell
Team Disoriented
that remains to be seen
No skills
Fairly good shot blocker if you ask me
No basketball IQ
Sub par basketball IQ
Trust me if Latrell was still in the league, I'd probably put him down no doubt...
Tyrus is just the first person to come to my mind.. Like, back then this guy would be a 2nd round pick if he were projected to be drafted on a bunch ofIf's. I mean he's unproven what's the point.. But now, teams want to figure out whos going to be the next : Amare, Dwight, Garnett, Al Jefferson,that it hurts the overall play of the NBA by drafting all these unskilled youngsters... Ofcourse he's going to be skilled in the blocking department b/cof his raw talent, but he just has no overall game.. And him getting drafted top 5 is just going to lead to all these other young cats who think their top 5material b/c they can jump out the building and have loads of "unseen potential." Hmmm... Maybe I should blame the coaches and managers And Stern aswell instead of getting on Tyrus.. But, his attitude makes it worse...

Your examples are flawed because
Amare straight outta high school
KG straight outta high school
Jefferson straight outta high school
Dwight straight outta high school
Tyrus Thomas went to LSU and made it to the final four with his team.
He wasn't drafted solely on potential because he did actually play at the next level of basketball.
I understand the point you're making but I think using Tyrus is unfair
As an example, you guys are all talking about JR Smith. Me? I have more of a problem with Bowen than I do Smith; Bowen has almost ended careers. I'd want him out of the league before Smith if had a choice.
Exactly. Do some of you shake your head in disgust at JR Smith's on-court play or off-the-field actions? I never do, and neither should y'all. It'snot that serious. LOL at those who seem to have a vengeful spirit against Smith.
When I think Bruce Bowen, I think of the cheap shots, dirty fouls, his "defense" aka stick his foot under the feet of a player, yadda yadda. He'swhat's wrong with the NBA. He doesn't play tough or physical, he plays dirty. It's only a matter of time before he seriously hurts someone.
