he can give 10-10 given garbage time. He’s a hustlin/banging kind of power forward. There’s always room in the league for this (Hayes/Noah/Oberto). Needs to fix that jumper though.

You guys are killin me. I can’t believe nobody’s made a Nick Collison comparison yet. same weight and height and about the same athleticism. Only difference is Collison has a slightly better 10-18 foot jumper. But they’re rebounding and ability to finish after absorbing the hit is right on. and quit hatin on that dunk, so what if he walked. Dude said nobody’s dunked on him this decade.

Not as athletic as maxiell or lee, isn’t as offensive as big baby has proven he can be. so at most he’d be a hustle guy like chuck hayes. T is tall, hes not really an above average athlete. hes a hustle player who gets alot of garbag buckets in college on a loaded team, let alone pro. don’t get me wrong, hes a cool kid and actually down to earth if you ever talk to him but i dont see him ever being a starter but i do see him getting the fans to chant “we-want-tyler” at the end of games.

I don’t think that T will be anything great, but with the way Maxiell, Big Baby, Chuck Hayes, David Lee, and so on are playing, it’s not inconceivable that T could be a starter fairly quickly in this League as a power forward. Especially considering his team’s focus (the fast break) is something that the League is putting more and more emphasis on. Probably a better athlete than the rest of the guys I’ve already mentioned. I don’t think he’ll be a Charles Barkley by any means, though.

You know who else were a great college players? Nick Fazekas and Aaron Gray. Now staring in the D-League or getting no tick in the league. Sorry but Psycho T is does not have the length (like a bosh), height(like a KG),skill set(like a Dirk)or quickness(like a marion)to be an elite PF. I think he will be nothing more than a role player.

hansboorough is gonna be a ronny turiaf type…give you a few minutes, some hustle points and thats about it. he doesn’t have a legit post game, isn’t really that athletic. hes 6’10 and its not like he jumped over kenny. He pretty much just dunked the ball in the open spot between kennys non-jumping out stretched arms. Thats pretty much a basic 2 handed dunk. Personally I don’t see him doin much in the nba but i see him as one of those guys who somehow stick around ala pat burke edurdo najara. or he could be a total scrub ala josh mcroberts and stromile swift.

all these teams are gunna pick these freshman based on potential but they dont hand out these ncaa awards for no reason..people always sleep on the most proven players…in recent history i can think of josh howard, jameer nelson, alando tucker,aaron afflalo jus to name a few..players that had been workin hard for years and proven stars for ther teams that had deep runs…hans is gunna drop to like the 20s and every team that picked up some scrub ass 7 footer b4 him is gunna b kickin ther own asses
