Re: Is Tyler hansbrough a bust?
People have to expect you to be good to be considered a bust. Everyone knew Hansbrough would be garbage in the NBA.

Yeah, except that he's not garbage and is actually a pretty good role player...

Life goes on.
Re: Is Tyler hansbrough a bust?
Nah, he's fine... he's not gonna be a star, but he's good enough. It's kind of like Baby (but Baby was picked later); those guys who did work in college usually come around to be pretty decent role players.
Tyler is a solid role playing big and could help out a lot of contending teams. Could likely start on some, too. I think you could put him alongside Tim Duncan or Dwight and he'd go hard.

Re: Is Tyler hansbrough a bust?
He got drafted at 13th. That's not particularly high and i cant remember anyone being called a bust from being picked 10+ or even from the 5th above. Plus, i think no one expected him to be anything more than a good solid role player.

Re: Is Tyler hansbrough a bust?
The prototypical star in college who isn't big, athletic, or skilled enough to transfer that dominance to the NBA. A glorified Mark Madsen, nothing more. Did anyone really expect him to do better? Really?

Roy Hibbert Super Star
Re: Is Tyler hansbrough a bust?
The bust is finally getting playing time and is bullying and midranging his way to 22/11 with a few mintues to go in the 3rd. San Antonio cannot guard him.

More like Matt Boner
Re: Is Tyler hansbrough a bust?
What's this? He gets playing time and produces?
O'Brien needs to quit.

Re: Is Tyler hansbrough a bust?
he's killing the spurs tonight.

Re: Is Tyler hansbrough a bust?
Awesome. I like Hansbrough. I noticed, after checking the boxscores for a few games this season, he'd get like 8 mintues of playing time and score, like, 6 points and grab four rebounds or something. He should play more.

I expected him to be a lot better than Madsen, considering Madsen was terrible. I figured he'd be a backup/ energy guy who could get 10 pts and 10 rebounds off the bench, maybe more occasionally. He had a good game tonight, hopefully he can keep it up.

Its like people refuse to listen.......You got a few Pacer fans in this thread telling u its the coach, telling u he could produce if given a chance...yet people still calling him a bust....
Obrien is TERRIBLE.........PERIOD.......POINT BLANK............He handcuffs Darren Collison, he handcuffed Tinsley and TJ ford........Those guys aren't all stars but they're very creative and Jim Obrien = hates creativity......
