well the interesting thing is that both players were compared to pippen coming into the nba, honestly I think they could be nuts together...combine that with yao? well -- all I'll say is, if I had my choices in the draft right now...I'd either take morrison or gay. to put it into perspective: I think getting roy would be a home run. I think morrison or gay is a grand slam.
Gay does not really have that kind of a skill set. Think of a finisher and shooter, not necessarily a great ballhandler or wing defender. I still like him, though, and would love the choice.
Agreed. In a lot of ways Gay reminds me of Horry with more upside. Of course we can't assume that Gay can be as clutch as Horry, but the game, body type and skills are pretty close imo, with Gay probably being more athletic.
If y'all are saying Gay can be a PF in this league because how the league is changing and SF/PF players are becoming more successful, then why can't Tyrus Thomas be successful too?
I think people think Tyrus cant be that type of player because he didn't show that perimeter game in college. While even though Gay wasn't outstanding in defending the post and perimeter he showed that he could do it
