Etan Thomas: "I'm not putting up with any garbage from Brendan Todd Haywood"

They should just settle it on pay-per-view.

 

I just read this on ESPN.com and was a little surprised. Why keep 2 players on the team that have had continuous scuffles? Why not let one of them go or trade one?

 

Why not give one of them to us? LOL

It's funny that these two hate each other but seem to both get along with everyone else.

 

They're both inconsistent. I've followed them for fantasy purposes and watch a few more Wizards games now that I'm up here in DC. They both kinda suck and both are kinda good. They'd trade either for sure if they got back anything good. So the Wizards just go with who they think is playing well that day for the most minutes, or they just split time. They're in the in between world of being too similar in talent...not too sucky to drop, but neither are good enough to merit 38mpg status.

 

This is what we need more of, teammates on teammates.. especially Dallas.

Too bad the Wiz isn't coming to town April.. or else they would've been able to duke it out in the UCF.

 

Man, Etan Thomas would be perfect for this team. He would drastically improve our rebounding and guard Dirk. Juwan did a decent job on Dirk, but he couldn't rebound the darn ball.

Chuck is a great hustler, but he can't play against big centers like Diop or Dampier and try to outrebound. He's shorter and less athletic than both of them

Thomas is taller and more athletic than Chuck. That would be a nice 4 man center/PF rotation (deke, thomas, chuck, juwan)

 

No way he could guard a player like Dirk. He would be an improvement in the size, rebounding and shot blocking areas but he's nowhere near quick, agile or even smart enough to effectively guard Dirk.

 

I would rather have Brendan Haywood. They are going to give you the same production. Haywood has about 3 inches on Thomas and costs about a million less. Both guys are overpaid.

 

This is really ugly stuff that can completely blow up a team's chemistry. In one of the earlier fights, Haywood yanked out one of Thomas' braids. The Wizards are in a bad spot because even though neither one is a starting caliber player, they need both in the rotation to absorb minutes at center. Especially with Jamison out.

 

lets sign haywood he would be a good backup

 

They need to pray for peaceful coexistence! As team mates they should be pulling for one another not fighting!

 

I agree he would be a pretty good fit. I'd give the trade exception for him and a future pick. (Washington wouldn't)



I'd give the exception for Thomas.

 

Noo, I don't want him to elbow Yao in the practice.

 

LOL. Amen

 

So they're like Antonio Davis and Dale Davis from the Pacer days

 

So they're like Antonio Davis and Dale Davis from the Pacer days.

Antonio and Dale were more consistent then either Thomas or Haywood.

 

I'm betting the last time Haywood heard that it was from his mother.

 

Between that and Gilbert's antics, it's difficult to imagine the Wizards are going to get better any time soon.

I agree with Eddie Jordan, they lack a leader who garners the respect of his teammates.

 

im laughing cause Yao injured both of them in December, and they bicker with each other, what a bunch of pansies
