A-nother of K's Duke big men exceeding one of Roy's in the league.

Who is he "exceeding?"
DevilDJ
I'm tempted to say Sean and Jawad but their Doh's. Both already outta the league anyway so who gibz a fuk? Brandon? He's found a little niche as a role player in Dallas but that's after being in the league forever and coming out as a Top 3 pick. Monumental bust-ola give those credentials. I mean , it shouldn't even be close , should it? Yet , it is. Mark Randall? He sucked. First rounder. 8 year career averaging 2 ppg. Scott Polard? 11 year career , first rounder. 4ppg. Greg Ostertag? Another first rounder. 4ppg over an 11 year career. Darrin Hancock? 2nd rounder. 3ppg. Eric Chenowith? Did he ever make it to the league? Lester Earl? laugh.gif Kenny Gregory? Undrafted. Never made it to NBA. Nick Collison? First rounder. 7ppg. I could on but ya get the point. LT was drafted by the damn D-League , played his way to the NBA and averaged 4 points ppg this season. Roy has Pierce and ya got to go back aways to get 'im. Who knows? Maybe Zeller and Henson will surprise. Given Roy's history I wouldn't hold my breath though.

He's logged one half of one nba season, so keep trying.

I'm sure coach K was totally hands off with this selection

Dude. rolleyes.gif Yes , LT has played a whopping half a season and , yeah , K probably had something to do with his selection. Who knows? Maybe K wants Lance to teach LeBron how to be a champion. Heck if I know. I'm just bustin' ballz anyway. But look at Roy's guys. All have multi-year careers ( Doesn't count as any kind of achievement. unx fans have never given credit to ANY Duke players who accomplished the same feat. Goose/gander. ) all were drafted highly and all , to one extent or the other , suck. Not fer nuthin' , Lance ( undrafted! ) shouldn't even be IN the damn league yet he is. And , like his placement on the team , ya can credit K with that too. The Duke coach takes role players in college and puts 'em in the NBA. Roy takes stars and turns 'em into role players...if that. Like I said , maybe Zeller and Henson will break the mold and become exceptions to the rule.

...except lance Thomas was a McDonald's all-American who Ratface managed to turn into an undrafted free agent.

Lance was a Mickey D'er but he was what he was. We all had 4 years to see that. Dollars to doughnuts , you were one of those hole fans scratching yer head an' wonderin' how the fuk the kid was a Mickey D'er to begin with....gangly , uncoordinated , couldn't even catch the damn ball , you name it. Honestly , the thought crossed my mind a time or two also after first seeing him play. That said , don't even try to float some bs notion that K ruined 'im....just the opposite. Under K , he improved every single season and , despite going undrafted , he's in the league. Lance is NOT the example ya wanna use to prove that idiotic post. K getting Lance to the league speaks highly of the coach. Roy? Well , his shet speaks highly too...just not in a particularly "good" way.

Through Ratface's nepotism, Lance Thomas is taking away a slot on that team from someone who actually deserves it. Danny Green, for example.

Oh yeah. Again , another of ROY'S guys who was actually drafted , waived...TWICE!...played overseas and has managed to hook up with an NBA team....temporarily. I'm guessin' Dancin' Danny Drug-Mule rents. laugh.gif Actually , Green ain't doin' bad ( this go 'round , anyway ) but his story ain't unlike Lance's and Lance hasn't been in the league as long. He's not any more "deserving" than Lance and Lance is K's. Roy would put Danny on there if he was coaching...which he ain't...cause no one asked...and won't...ever. laugh.gif BTW , funny ya should mention "nepotism...." laugh.gif

Danny Green is a starter on one of the best teams in basketball. Lance Thomas will be out of the league long before Danny.

Yeah , he is. AND he's got all the other baggage too. Lance wasn't even drafted. Apples to apples , maybe? rolleyes.gif Heck , given that Danny Drug Mule has already been waived TWICE , I'm a bit taken aback that you would make such a definitive statement as if it were gospel. Oh wait. I almost forgot. "Butch didn't know." "This will all be over by Friday." "Rogue offenders." I shoulda considered the source. laugh.gif You guys gotta nice little legacy of making "definitive" statements that have nuthin' to do with reality. laugh.gif

Definitive statements like Danny being a drug mule? Go ahead and post something negative that DG has done. Not his dad. Danny Green.

You mean something MORE "negative" than the embarrassing truths about Roy's pros? Sure. Those pre-game dances were pretty fukkin' "negative." Not to YOU , of course , but the rest of the planet found it stupid as fuk ie "negative." Dude , you're grasping at straws here. WTF? laugh.gif
