Message: [QUOTE="iommi, post: 2473299, member: 249"] I didn't want to jump in here but I decided to, against my better judgment. Tyus's biggest negative (that I haven't seen brought up in this thread) is his lack of a left hand, which is bizarre to me because I watched Tyus in high school quite a bit and he never had a problem going left or finishing left. It's made him so much easier to defend. I expected him to be much better on the break too. As an aside, do we even practice fast break fundamentals? Ie: 2 on 1 drills? How can we be that bad in man advantage situations? And why do our guards insist on going 1 on 2... Are they admonished when they do so? Also, he does have an odd release that has gotten more herky jerky. It's like he fell into a bad habit and it's gotten more pronounced over time. He was a decent passer in high school, extremely unselfish and had solid vision. Nothing off the page but solid. Why that hasn't come out is beyond me? I think JB told him we need his scoring. That said, his assist numbers should be better, regardless of our personnel. He's shown small glimpses of his passing acumen, so why doesn't it come out more often? Tyus is strong, a solid defender and can get a shot off, despite a ton of attention. Those are the positives. The shooting numbers have been disappointing. I was hoping we'd see a progression this year with his shot. Maybe it's the added attention but his shooting isn't great for a shooting guard. I like Tyus. His step back is nice. He has a nice midrange game. I think he would be a great man defender and will be professionally. Oh, and I think he will enter the draft. I don't see much of a chance of a first round selection for him and sadly he could go undrafted. Hopefully, he does well at the combine and goes in the second. How would he go in the first round? He's shown who he is on the court. His athleticism will come out at the combine but it won't be that overwhelming. [/QUOTE]
