When they brought him back up he went back to being garbage. Its really saying something when he couldn't even get any minutes on a Grizzlies team that wasn't even trying to win -- and this is after being in the D-League and showing "potential" Not only that he continued to be lazy and unmotivated. Really, there is no hope
Guys, Thabeet is a stiff. Give it up. What's important is the lottery protected pick. He is also an expiring next year.
So, what is the real deal with Thabeet??? Before the draft, he had a rep for being a hard worker and now he is unmotivated? These are very conflicting descriptions of a person. I am suspecting big money changed him, and if that is the case, I don't want him around. Hope I am wrong.
Maybe a change of scenery will be just what Thabeet needs. He was supposed to start work with Carroll Dawson today. Seeing so many ex-star centers interested in his improvement will probably get him excited about the game again. Being on Memphis's bench probably stifled his enthusiasm for the game.
I know for a fact that he's going to be a good player because Memphis traded him away during his rookie contract.
I hope you are right not wrong... He is in the last year of his contract ( next year )... IF he wants more money THAN next year will be a really good year... IF this is the case THAN: - NO LONG contracts for him as a Rocket - give him a contract were the better he plays the more money he makes ( can that really be done in the NBA? )
