<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Chuck:</div><div class="quote_post">You just put Tyrus Thomas @ 7 to stir up some $h!t, and get hits on your retarded website.</div> He probably put Tyrus Thomas at #7, because kid is arguably the most overrated player in the draft and putting him at #7 is about where I think he should go. There's no way that anyone can make a judgement on Thomas and how he'll translate into the NBA because he's too raw right now. Most of Tyrus' points came in transition or on offensive rebounds...he hasn't shown that he can post-up on stronger forwards and until he adds more weight/muscle, I don't think he can be effective at the next level. But Tyrus is one of those who could end up developing into a star and having a similar game to Shawn Marion if the right team drafts him, or he could end up being a Marcus Haislip or Stromile Swift.

If he's in the right situation, he'll be very good, but if he goes somewhere where he'll be forced to play right away or not a good coach, then he's in trouble. That's what I thought happened to Stromile, he was forced to play and his confidence wasn't there and he just didn't progress after awhile.
