being over-anxious in that setting leads to silly fouls, turnovers and ultimately the bench. not that he has any real offensive game yet, though his anxiety likely makes what little offense he has look worse. in games he still looks like he's going too fast MOST of the time when he's been able to relax, he's done well. I'm guessing, but i'd bet tyrus is a lot more impressive in practice than he's been in the games.
Pokerth tyrus better play pro#
To me, we're talking about a player who can make worthwhile contributions right now and has a very good chance of being a very much above average pro in a year or two. Tyrus' turnovers are the biggest hole in his game right now and I think he will learn to stop making horrific passes with time. He averages a block every ten minutes and if he can keep up that rate so that he averages 3.5 per game with starters minutes he'll be amongst the league leaders.
He averages around 8.5 rebounds per 35 right now and I think he can improve that to 10.5 in time. I'm not going to throw around the word "star player" but if Tyrus averages around 10 points per 35 minutes now I think he can augment that to 15 PPG over time. That doesn't mean there aren't plenty of exceptions but the odds of Tyrus becoming a much better player than he is right now are pretty good, and he's already a useful player.
The bottom line is that as a rule very young players improve substantially from their rookie season forward. I feel that the most important fact here is that the list of players who improved from age 20 forward is probably about ten times as long as the list of players who did not. I'm not sure that Ben Gordon is at any less risk of seeing his production stagnate or regress than Tyrus happens to be (in fact, probably a far greater risk since he's older). Certainly there is a substantial list of players whose production fell off a table (Kemp, Vin Baker, Nick Anderson, Penny Hardaway, Terell Brandon) though in a lot of cases that can be traced to injuries, drugs, or alcohol. He regressed when he turned 25 and was out of the league by the time he was 27. Honestly I'm not even sure whether or not Tyson belongs on that list because while his offense surprisingly regressed as his career progressed, his rebounding and defense seem to have improved.ĮRob is a stretch since he debuted at 23 and improved from his first to his second season. You're right, there is a list of players whose development either stagnated or regressed from their 20th birthday onwards. The issue in my opinion is, will Tyrus improve and how much? Certainly being as skilled as Kobe Bryant was at age 20 is not a prerequisite to being a good NBA player or even a star for that matter. Click to expand.Again, no one is arguing that Tyrus is or will ever be in the same universe as Kobe so I think we can stop comparing how NBA reading the two players were at the same age.
