Can anyone say:

BUST


Would you rather have Thabeet or TC? That was the FO's choice.

Well with Marc becoming one of the top 5 or so Centers in the league, I can understand them making the point to send him down

Thabeet should never have gone that high anyway so who looks worse Thabeet or the infamously retarded don't know wtf i'm doing Chris Wallace

Thabeet may be a bust. In college I didn't see much besides shot blocking, once in a while dunking the ball and rebounding. Here, hes 2-3 inches taller than most centers and is struggling to even grab a rebound. Perhaps this will be his wakeup call.

Supposedly he has no love for the game and only views it as a paycheck. Until that changes he'll never be worth that 2nd pick.

With our "luck" at draft selection I have no doubt he's the guy we would have taken if we'd have made that Memphis trade...but at least we'd have gained capspace then vs in 2 seasons.

They knew he was going to take a while to develope, as in years. It is way to early to call him a bust. He is a project, just like Ajinca. He is among the league leaders in blocks per 48 min and that is the part you can't teach. If he can learn some of the other stuff, he will be a solid player, if not a bust.

Just another case of "HOLY SHIT HES TALL, IM SURE WE CAN TEACH IT BASKETBALL"
