Thomas blocks some shots, alters others and contests almost everything around him. He's a solid rebounder. He has his uses. But it goes back to my argument about TChandler and the like. Thomas played only one year of college, so you could make the case that he is a "Senior" right now. But on the other hand, he has played in 180+ games in the NBA.

I think Tyrus Thomas could be the biggest waste of athletic talent I've ever seen. I gotta say, there’s not one Bulls player (besides Rose) who I enjoy watching play.

I think the Bulls need a Quentin Richardson type-player--a guy that can score in bunches and play perimeter defense. Q hasn't shot it all that well for the Knicks and he has a massive contract, but it's they type of player I think the Bulls need to go with Rose and Hinrich, whom I assume will be here for a while.

I don't want to trade Gordon though. He's annoying sometimes and a crap defender, but if we trade him we'd probably fail to top 80 points a lot. It's sad. He's the only guy that puts the ball in the basket consistently. Record-wise and whatnot, they're not doing much worse than I expected coming into the season, it's just the way that it's happening that's driving me flipping nuts. It's one thing when you just can't match talent, but that's not why they're losing some of these games, particularly against the OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER AT HOME! Show me some effort. It was just a couple years ago the Bulls were overachieving hustlers that played great defense. Now they look lazier and more careless than Eddy Curry(Okay, probably not the best time for that line).
