Stro-tential

[Thewlis Dish]

Reeves had some productive years too, but weight problems and a ridiculous contract extension didn't help.

Shawn Bradley.

Why not? People dn't need much to have a go at him.

How about Keith Van Horn or the white guy who use to be a back up forward for the Pacers. he had a weird name.

Croshere?

 

[eathb]

Wasn't Diop meant to be the next Shaq?? And the fact that he lost weight actually made him a better player.

Tyrus Thomas. All the Bulls have massive woodies for him. Their combined pre-jac about him could easily resolve our drought problem. But he is THE prime candidate for Stro-tential as his game is basically the exact same. Im sure if the Grizzlies hadn any fans they would have been saying the same thing about Stro as the Bulls are now about Thomas. But all Tyrus has shown he can do is dunk and block shots. Shooting? Nah. Rebounding? Nah? Man defense? Nah. they should use him as the cream on a deal for KG/Pau before everyone realises he has Stro-tential.

You've been owned matey

FROM REAL GM WIRETAP

The breathtaking athleticism was clearly evident Monday when Chicago Bulls forward Tyrus Thomas met Shawne Williams a foot above the rim and stuffed the dunk attempt back to the floor, writes John Denton on ESPN.com.

With Thomas, already one of the NBA's most dynamic shot-blockers, the unexpected has almost become the expected now.

But it was a more mundane effort, Thomas actually knocking down a couple of 15-foot jump shots, that had defenders shaking their heads in Monday's Pepsi Pro Summer League from Orlando.

Thomas' improved shot from the outside hasn't come by accident. He said he's worked seven days a week so far this offseason, often staying in the gym until he makes 700 jump shots a day.

"I just want to use this week to get a lot better and put to use all the work that I've been putting in," said Thomas. "Everything that I've been working on, from my midrange game to my back-to-the-basket game, I'm trying to make them better this summer."

Croshere?

Cheers. Had a brain block. Austin Croshere.

Kwamae Brown is a good one too.

I dont know, I rate Kwame Brown. Sure he probably hasnt lived up to his billing, but he hasnt been a complete flop the way some of these guys have. Kwame is a one-on-one defensive beast. When hes motivated, he dominates the boards.

I remember last year watching some Lakers games and Kwame just took over. Scored a couple of dunks with a foul, dished some good dimes and just played really well. Ive been a big fan ever since.

LOL hitting a couple of Js in SUMMER LEAGUE does not constitute an owning.

 

[jhgoat]

Kwame Brown.

bout time someone put up this #1 draft pick...

 

[Brad Goodman]

Has Shareef done as well as expected?

 

[pol06]

considering he was meant to be the biggest thing in basketball no. but shareef doesnt have stotential in my opinion

 

[the_mighty_pies_3733]

Watch for Shelden Williams to show his Stro-tential over the next few years. Also Telfair and maybe Shaun Livingston

 

[Dal-Las Mav'a Riq]

Devin Harris had better pull his finger out.

Another year of 10 and 4 aint gonna cut it matey. You will be replaced by the Puerto Rican midget.

Joe Smith and Clarence Weatherspoon, there first 2 or 3 yrs each were their best!!!
