And that's why you take the million$ when they're available to you.

 

[CuseFaninVT]

Sucks for him. Hope his recovery is quick.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Damn. Was really starting to dominate the G league too. Our guys have zero luck. Seems like they all get hurt.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Sounds like some of our fans are still pathetic.

Very sad. I would love to have had Tyler on the SU team this year but he made the right decision for him.

Yep.

Sometimes foresight is too.

 

[Bayside44]

Feel bad for the kid that he's done for the year. That has nothing to do though if he stayed. Not like he's doing the same exact stuff.

 

[NateW]

Sucks for him... can’t believe celebrities let the trolls get to them tho. Don’t feed them and they go away.

Sorry we have some idiotic fans. Also sorry Tyler let it get to him to the point he felt he had to comment about it publicly,

And most sorry for Tyler. He waited a long time to get called up and then this had to happen. Hope he heals quickly. I wish him only the best.

 

[OrangeDW]

And that's why you take the million$ when they're available to you.

Agreed. But on the other end, if the millions are pretty clearly not available to you, you might want to consider getting your degree first rather than jumping to go grind for minor league in the G League. You get hurt then, and what do you have? Lydon made the right move, as have most of our guys...have any of them jumped early and not gotten drafted? Most have been first rounders.

I wish I could say I was shocked by how many flat out bad people there are out there. But I’m not. People suck.

This isn't a hindsite thing.

It's simply a fact.

It is hindsight its easy to sit there and say he made the right move now we didn't know at the time he was going to get hurt

No it is not hindsight. Plain and simple, it was the right thing for him to do.

Perhaps if you listened to people's reasoning for players leaving early in the past you would realize this is clearly foresight.

One of the key reasons you decide to go pro is the injury risk factor. If you come back as a junior, hurt your knee for an extended injury, it will hurt your draft stock and can definitely knock you out of the first round and you may never get an NBA contract. (this is a scenario that has and certainly will happen again). Also, now that you are a property of an NBA team and they have a guaranteed contract invested in you they will be more interested in trying to get you back to health. Where would he be if nobody wanted to draft him after his injury.

This is one of the major reasons one strikes when they are a first round pick. Always has been. Since it's a reason you leave early it's clearly foresight. To claim it's hindsight is just being stubborn IMO.

Time will tell

No it won't.

What does that even mean in this case? It doesn't apply.

Seriously -- What.

No it won't.

To whether or not it was the right decision

 

[CuseTroop]

To whether or not it was the right decision

Tyler knows it was the right decision.

Your “hindsight” is irrelevant

 

[NineOneSeven]

To whether or not it was the right decision

So if he never plays in an NBA game again it was the wrong decision?
