he should be starting for philadelphia why dont they start him....he has averaged 15 and 13 points the last two years in just 30 mins....he has 17-7 potential with 3's and steals
young..is so good at everything..hes a great athlete, can play defense, can dunk, can shoot..and everything....he has such a bright future in philly!!!
Thad is definately gonna be a speacial player in this league, he has that "it" factor. You can see it in him when he plays, he's very talented and can do variety of things for the 76ers. As for getting rid of Iggy....uh....NO!!!! that's a HORRIBLE idea. Get rid of him for what? for who? Kobe, T-Mac, who? really who? What the 76ers need to do is move Iggy to the 2, and put Thad at the 3. As for Andre Miller, he should stay. I don't see how they can upgrade the 1 by trading him away. GO 76ERS
thad young is definitely a 3 so i dont see what's the problem with keeping iggy at the 2. all the sixers need to do now, is to find a power forward that is suitable for the team.
Iguodala is a natural 3 as well. His ball handling skills arent that great. Thad looks alot like KG. Tall, Lanky, Athletic marvel who can score from anywhere on the floor and defend multiple positions very effectively. He is still growing, and I've heard rumors he is at 6-9 now. Once he fully grows out, he should be a PF.
Thad Young is a bad ass. Trading Andre Iguodala would be really stupid just move him to SG its not that hard and get rid of Willie Green. Maybe trade Miller in the offseason for a pick because Louis Williams if gets the chance will be a star -Monta Ellis type player.
Trade Miller? As in Andre Miller? No-No. One or two more years of learning for Williams behind Miller would make Williams a beast. Lou is good, but he's not ready to take 'Dre's place yet. Lou will be a beast, but give him a year or two. Thad is gonna be a really good player too. I agree.
aye u know what ur saying ,, listion dough... the sixers have 10 mil in free agency .. go out.. get elton brand (not crazy they talked bought it) or some other talent let lou continue to develop we have a very young team and thad is a 3 gaurd not a 2 and AI is a 2 so i dno what ermolav is talking about but hes talkin out his ass
T. Young will be as good (if not better) than Durant. Watching him with the Sixers, he reminds me of a young Mcgrady. TMac didn't put up the stats his first year neither, but he had that poise, and you could see it in him. I see the same in Young.
the sixers should trade rodney carney and andre miller for a strong rebounding power forward and let louis williams start at pg. iggy should start at sg, and thad young at sf.
Thaddeus needs to play the 3 and thats iggy's natural position. They need to see what they can get for iggy because thaddeus has more potential. Maybe a draft pick. They also should get rid of miller and start to rebuild. If they can somehow get a top 5 pick and get another one by trading iggy say top 8 pick then their in business. Derrick rose or Oj mayo and deandre jordan.
shut the fuck up cho' u aint have no fucking idea wutchu is talkin about cuz..Deandre Jordan gone be iight rose is going number 2 and mayo is just not THAT good Iggy is 23 chill out mayo is a 20 year old freshmen and id rather have iggs than mayo not to mention we would never we in a position to draft him dickhead
Young was an excellent selection. And btw a lot of nba experts to my suprise are saying he could have a higher upside than Kevin Durant. Im not sure you know what your talking about Rockets. Young has a 54% field goal percentage right now. He shoots much better than Iguadala and can rebound and play Defense. Hes got a shot at being a consistant allstar (or better) for years to come. The guy can shoot. You can have iguadala and young on the court at the same time too genius. ;)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
thaddeus young.... man... i think it's a waste of pick.. since sixers already got iguodala... young is basically a taller iguogala who also plays small forward along w/ iggy
I dont see what the problem is of having two Iguodala's on the team. In terms of efficiency he ranks about #4 on this year's class of rookies. Isn't he only 19? And what's to say that Iguodala will accept a contract offer from the Sixers? Not like any other team will have enough money for him, a sign and trade could happen with the new GM. However put both of those guys on the floor for another year and they'll be a special group with Andre Miller having an incredible season. WORD.
Iggy needs help, we got that 7 ft 2 ukranian fool, we need a solid youngpoint guard with a little experience (Bassy would be excellent), we're just missing a dominant power forward because Sammy needs help in the paint
we have a solid young point(louis williams) an athletic freak thats has learned how to score from iverson and how to pass from andre miller..all we need is a pf and jason smith might be that
you all have heard that he isnt doe growing yet right..he measured in at 6'9 at the sixers summer league the other day and his dad is 6'11..he may grow into a powerforward
a powerforward that plays like a small forward if he grows..he has post moves...with iggy at 2 and carney at 3 he will have to play pf to get any valuable minutes
Stop Dickeating haterz, yall just mad cuz yall didnt pick him up... You'll see how the sixers work it out with him and Iggy. I bet they'll be on the floor together. Thad replacing Joe Smith,or Shavlick Randolph, bobby jones, alan henderson, I dont mind getting rid of any of these players.
they drafted Byars also, another SG, how the fuck r they gonna share minutes? so fucking stupid, they need a PG, shouldve got Stuckey, their stuck wit this fuck, nbadraft. net is a stupid site anyway, they compared him to Pierce, r u kidding?!?! he's more like a Desmond Mason
Uh...yeah, because Andre Miller really sucks. Stuckey isn't a PG anyways, and if he is he'll be a score first PG which the 76ers have had for the past 10 years.
Sixers r stupid, don't really understand why they drafted another SF, when they have Iggy, and how are they gonna share the ball, bad pick for Philly, he would've fit better if he went to the Hornets.
looking at who was left on the board, sixers picked the best player, hands down, thats not stupid, so your saying if sixers had 2nd round pick, that we should pass on durante just because he is going to be a sg/sf in the league, just as iggy is, right your stupid
Not a good fit for the Pistons. The Pistons already have Tayshaun Prince who's still young and plays the same position as Thad Young. 6'5" PG/SG Rodney Stuckey and 7'0" PF/C Jason Smith are better fits for the Pistons.
theres better small forwards in the draft like corey brewer, kevin durant, and julian wright tho so he might not be a top 10 pick but definately first round
He seems at least as good as Corey Maggette, who's not a bad player at all. I hope the Clippers get him! That would be a pretty dope lineup right there. A healthy Sam Cassell at point, Corey at the 2, Thadeus Young at the 3, Elton Brand holding down the power forward spot, and hopefully a more focused and re-energized Chris Kaman at center.
Thaddeus Young eh? Yeah he did fantastic in the tournament...first round loss in one of the single worst college games i have ever wittnessed....great, i just hope portland passes on him...please god pass on him!
He's very fluid. Rudy Gay type player with Rudy Gay upside. Only difference is the polish and work ethic. Young far less polished but is a better and more recptive learner, and under the right tutalege, will be an all star. Think an more offensive minded Josh Smith.
Hahaha yeah right, that's before NBA scouts saw him play in the tournament...he'll be a mid 1st rounder and has a lot of work to do to compete at an NBA level...very promising but no where near the NBA level YET
hahaha that's funny, did you see him play in the NCAA? check out the highlights from game 1 of the NCAA tournament...tayshaun prince has an NBA ring, and competes at the NBA level very well locking opponents up deffensivly, Thaddeus Young may be pretty good, but he didn't show it in college and i hope he stays in college atleast another year. This kid will get owned in NBA
Thaddeus Young from Memphis Mitchell High School in Memphis, TN. Going to play for Georgia Tech next year. I saw him play a few times in high school.. huge talent.
look what level durant is at. and look where thad young is at.
