Yes and Ellington went first round too! Good job for those National Champ players!

Finally, the Pacers are gonna be back! They went to shit when Reggie Miller, in my opinion the best Guard ever, brought in a bunch of thugs. Now, they are gonna be at least a better team than they have been in a while.

He will play power foward, duh!!! Elton Brand is the same size as Tyler and Tyler was better than him in college. So, he can play power foward in the NBA. Too inconsisten??? I can tell you didn't watch no UNC's games because Tyler got a good jumpshot. He had shot 51% from the field.

@godzilla1077 where in the hell did you see I said that, thanks for trying to put words in my mouth. I was saying he showed that a education was more important which is rare in today's time.

@hardluckboogie So are you saying all one and done athletes are thugs and fuck ups?

[hardluckboogie]

Class act coming back for his last year instead of jumping for money like so many one and dones in the NCAA, His Mother and Father had a big impact on his life and his dreams

@Domini478 The reason why he can't score alot is because he sucks at shooting the ball. You know what the opposing defense do against Hansborugh? They let him shoot. And he misses more shots than he makes outside of the paint. I've known that for while about the high schoolers. But that being said, a lot of them are usually one and done in college and go straight for the NBA. Some opt to stay for several reasons, one of which is knowing what thier draft stock is at.

@godzilla1077 He is starting because he hustles and he gives all he got! He don't try to score alot in the NBA like he did in college. Do you know that high school players can't go straight to the NBA anymore? You have to be 19 years old to enter the Draft. Alot of players that has enter the draft are college players since 2006 year.

@Domini478 He chucks the ball and throws errand passes. The only reason why he's the starting power forward is becuase the Pacers other power forwards are not that good either. There are other power forwards around the league that are not even starters and they're much better PF's than Hansborough. I can care less about college hoops. College hoops has a bunch of busters where only 5%, if even that, make the NBA. NBA over college any day.

@godzilla1077 Tyler is good dumbass. He is the starting power foward for the Pacers. He was great in college and he is a avg player in the NBA.

[godzilla1077]

@Domini478 Tyler is not that good. College and NBA are 2 totally different things.
