Alot of old clips.... one thing has got to be said. He's a good kid. We have a core of 3 players that all seen to be cut from the same cloth in Tyler, Murry, and Thjr....I think we need to build around these 3. We're making a grace mistake if we don't. 3 young guys that play hard and are true to their positions with great heads on their shoulders. It would be a dream if they all can reach their potential together. I personally believe they can all be starters by next year. They are all at the cusp.
^ Would actually throw Aldrich in the mix as well. It's horrendous this kid hasn't been given a chance to play, esp. while Chandler was out. Come on -- Chandler out and even STAT and/or Martin out all at the same time and he couldn't get more than 3 mins. at the end of some of these games? That's insane. That's grounds for dismissal right there...One of my main priorities while these guys were out would've been to get this big fella some court time to see if he could help me. Absolutely insane... The dude was a real presence in college and a former lottery pick. This guy could be a better player than Omer Asik, maybe even Chandler!! Who knows...Aldrich AND Tyler would be an interesting big man duo to see play together..
At the very least, send Aldrich down to Erie -- let him play 30+ mins every night and build up his value...He goes down there and starts putting up double-doubles, people will take notice -- maybe then we flip him to New Orleans for a guy like Pierre Jackson or to Houston for Isaiah Canaan. Or WE take notice ourselves, bring him back up and get him some playing time!! Astonishing that he's just been made to sit on the bench and rot. Bottom line -- I'm not ready to write this kid off just because Woody did. He's part of out young mix of unknowns we need to find out more about.
Woody said he won't play until he's learned and caught up with what we're doing. Shouldn't take long then...

Such a joke. I know the kid needs to get some practices in but what they are doing is losing. I'm tired of the coaching talking like they are 7 ahead and not the 7 games they are behind the division leader
By the all star break I want to see tyler, toure and thjr all starting

He did the same thing to KMart last year. Unfortunately the roster is frail. I think he will get time sooner rather than later.

I'm hoping. ... we don't need him posting up right now. We do need him rebounding and finishing. I'm very excited for the kid. He's just not a center. I hope they don't waste time playing him there. Dude is like Blatche minus the poor work ethic and approach with stronger motor. I would compare him to Webber too minus the passing and personality
It's fun to compare but I'm not expecting superstar. Anybody that does is expecting alot. The kid does have God given physical tools with alot of moves in his Arsenal at a young age. This is what you cheeer for as a fan. Would be great to have someone to bang with Anthony Davis and these young boys coming up
