Do you think Tyrus Thomas is ready for the NBA?

If he can get a guaranteed constract, it doesn't matter if he's ready or not... he'll just be playing against a bunch of high school players anyway...\n\nI'll tell you one thing...if Sebastian Telfair is ready, then Thomas sure as hell is...Oooo, I'll bet he's real scared of playing against Sebastian Telfair... oooo, real scarey...\n\nYeah, he's ready, he should go!

could be, he will have scary talent by the time he is a junior and mack will get alot around him. i could see it happening, i am a buckeyes fan and i saw him play and i am at a agreement with you.

most potential? there are a lot of players with "potential" in this year's draft.\nyou have tyrus thomas and lamarcus aldridge down low.\nthere are also a BUNCH of swingmen. the ones that jump out are rudy gay and rodney carney. both can jump out of the gym, and are your typical t-mac, kobe-type players that can score and please crowds with their athleticism.

I think he will. Seems to have more tools and more size and just the winning attitude. Nothing seems to rattle him he seems to  thrive on pressure. I think that the upside on him is he has the potential to be the greatest Q.B. of all time  but with rookies you never know all I know is if I had the first pick in the draft I would have taken him feast or famine because I would hate to have it said that I passed on him just in case he turns out to be the Michael Jordon of the N.F.L.

I think he'll do fine if keeps his temper under control.  It's up to the players and coaches around him to make this happen.  Look what happened to Rasheed Wallace after being traded to Detroit.  \n\nArtest is pretty talented, so his ability to contribute is not even a factor

Yeah i think he can surely help the team! And if we can pick up edgirin james off of free agency, we'll be in even better shape!!

It's A.I. without a doubt.  Not only is he the best player on that team, he may be the toughest man in the league right now.  There isn't anything he isn't willing to do on a basketball court to get the job done.  It's a shame he may never win a title, the rest of his team is questionable at best.

Okay I think the kids got great potential and his having an outbreaking season. However, I don't think he's an all-star. Think about it, there are bunch of other SGs in the nba that are better than him. Kobe Bryant, Jason Richardson, Ray Allen, Manu Ginobli, Tracy Mcgrady, Vince Carter, Richard Hamilton, Joe Johnson, Dwyane Wade, etc. I'd take any of these guards over Kevin Martin. But don't get me wrong, he's a good player. But I don't think he's quite there at an allstar level. In the future however, I think he'll be an allstar and great player. Only time will tell, but right now he looks to be great.

I think the bulls are going to give a lot of teams trouble this year.  They are young and quick and there interior defense isn't all about Big Ben Tyrus Thomas is unreal and can jump out of the building and I think the Eastern conference is in a lot of trouble this year.  I believe The Bulls will give the pistons a run for their money and I think this year( if they stay healthy)   They may beat the pistons in a 7 game series (4-2).

I agree, he is a team player who always seems to make the big plays at the end of the game. To bad the heat are so banged up, otherwise I think they would give Detroit a run for their money in the east.\n\nWhat he has done in just three years in the NBA is amazing!

Not the best ever, but definitely one hell of a basketball player.  He has also of skill, uses the fundamentals, and isn't afraid to pass the ball if he's having an off  night.  If he keeps going the way he is he could definitely become a player worthy of Bird or Nowitski type status.

They showed close-ups of him on opening night, before and/or after the montage of all the NBA players who wished him luck and welcomed him back. i think you're right, though, i don't remember any since then. EJ is doing well, though, thank goodness, so that's the important thing! : ) \n\ncheers,\nShauna! \n\np.s. i LOVE the NBA on TNT crew! and i especially LOVE Reggie! he's my favourite b-ball player EVER! : )

Adam Morrison or Brandon Roy. Those two are the most NBA ready players in the draft, in my opinion.  Frankly, the draft wasn't a very good one. I really think the Raptors should have tried harder to trade out of it or down.

way too early to tell. he's going through rookie pains. c'mon, he landed on a team where they are starting fresh. and he is used a lot more differently than anyone. he just doesn't know how to use his talents yet...i mean, we've all seen little glimpses of what he can do...wait another season before you ask that again.

Dunno. He has some sweet moves and he's tall as hell...but there are people who are better. You'd need to compare his stats after he plays more games.

Yea. He gets to go back to Utah where he used to play college ball at. The Raptors booed him a lot last year as he turned out to be a bust and the Jazz let go of Humphries who is another rookie who didn't play well. Hopefully, these two players will have fresh starts for their new teams. The Raptors have the no.1 pick for the draft. It should be interesting who they pick.

I don't know where he is now. I know that after he wasn't drafted, the Indiana Pacers signed him to a 10 day contract before the preseason, but then they released him. I don't know why he left the italian team. maybe he thoguht he couldn't play basketball well anymore. while I may be a pitt panthers fan, i watched a Pitt-ND game last year, and chris thomas is pretty good. his only problem is his height. Well, i hope this helps.
