Welll maybe I'm right anyway . . .they both keep saying how hungry they are in the video.....!

 

When I see Tyrus Thomas I think Stromile with an attitude, something I wish he already had.

 

There is at least one thing Thomas is much better than Swift already: dribble the ball to another end and finish on a fast break

I bet you wont see that happen on Stro.

 

Kevin Pittsnoggle (sp?) not Ryan - oh and I read that in a game in high school, Thomas did a dunk where his elbows were touching the rim! The guy is an athletic freak.

 

Thomas is better than Swift because Thomas has a "motor" and Swift doesn't. It's that simple.

 

Did you see Swift when he was at LSU? He was virtually the same player as Thomas. Oddly enough, LSU also beat Texas that year in the NCAA Tourney, with Swift dominating Chris Mihm and having his draft status shoot upwards.

 

Yep, let's not forget that Swift was an unbelievable college player as well.

I like Thomas, I don't like the Amare comparison because Amare has a much different body frame, the guy is literally a man-child. Thomas has a great motor but at 6-9, he could have a little trouble defending the bigger, stronger PFs in the league.

Don't get me wrong, I'd take the guy in a heartbeat. The best description I've found was "Stro w/ Ben Wallace attitude."
