With him not getting jerked around with minutes I think Tyrus is starting to really starting to really feel a part of the team and is now showing some pride in his play on the court. A couple more years and he could be a monster in this league on a nightly basis... if not sooner.
I don't know what or why. Tyrus has certainly played better. Before I was arguing, and still believe, he wasn't playing great, just better than he had been. That being said, his trajectory is certainly is way up. If he *averaged* what he has done the last two games, he would be an elite player.
Last 2:
22.5p 11.0r 2.5a 50.0% FG 61.1%ts
Obviously, in order to average that, he needs to do better than that pretty regularly.
All I have to say is... in a couple of seasons... more strength + a better jumper + experience = a 24 year old stud on BOTH ends of the court and hopefully he won't warrent the money Amare would.

After this game...I don't know...I think you have to keep Tyrus.

Tyrus Thomas - the lost player . the unfrorgiven . Ive loved him since the NCAA tournament he dominated . We need to save money to pay this guy . Hes getting closer . Fans are excited by trades and trade rumors . The Suns would love to have this guy . And people think Beasley is the better prospect . I dont see anything special . Even with attention on Wade this guy cant make an impact .

It looked like Rose caught either a shoulder or an elbow in the head on that screen. He was on the sideline, mouthing "my effin head." It didn't look like a concussion at all to me. Just a very painful shot to the head.

Same here.
I feel VERY uneasy about moving Tyrus.
I have always liked him. Even with Aldridge blooming nicely I have been in Paxson's corner in his drafting of TT. He has been a STUD for the past several games. Better than Aldridge.

Red used to always say "Get Ben the ball."
They did and he came up huge tonight. This win is for him.
Rose, Noah, Gordon, Nocioni and Tyrus all played great tonight down the stretch. Fun to watch.

Call it crazy, but this is what I see a prime Tyrus Thomas doing, but with more polish. And due to his *impact* on both sides, I think he has more talent than Beasley. The different being, Beasley is just so advanced on offense and that game comes natural to him.

Oh, and Im still for moving Tyrus. I hope he turns out great, but Amare is proven. Hopefully this game will convince Kerr even more that he wants Tyrus.

I love Tyrus but Amare was putting up 26&9 at his age. You gotta give a little to get a little and I fully expect Tyrus to blow up if we trade him.
Awesome game.

Noah is the big surprise for me. I have not ever been a fan of his, and prayed for him to be dealt. Now not so much. He has a real nose for the ball on the offensive glass.
Just watching Tyrus and Noah tonight, the way they ran the floor, they gave it everything, and they were rewarded with an outstanding win. Lets hiope they go from strength to strength after this one.

Tyrus is the kind of player that will maek you look bad trading him. Deng, not so much. Anyone else on this roster, not as much. Maybe Gordon. Ben would be doing the same thing elsewhere. Deng would be inconsistent, and mentally weak. Tyrus has the potential do pull a JO.
That said, Amare is another beast in his prime. But if possible, I'd try to make a deal w/o Ty.
Ty/Amare up front is nasty ****

This is killing me. After all the time we have invested in him he is finally coming good. I absolutely love what he is doing right now, a 2 way player that is filling up the stat sheet. Its gone from hoping Tyrus has a good game to expecting he contributes night in night out.
Amare is an amazing player so who knows.

I just go home and I pulled a Derrick Rose at halftime and cried like a baby. What a halftime presentation for Red. I took some pictures but from way up I hope they come out good. I got this very neat poster upon entrance and actually found several on my way out just left on empty seats. What a game, the crowd was so quiet in the third quarter but in the fourth with a little less than five minutes to go it was crazy. Ben Gordon went retro tonight with game winning antics.

Derrick Rose might be faster than fire. Think about it. Has Derrick Rose ever even been on fire? Makes you think.
Tyrus Thomas is proof that there is a god, and that he is Tyrus Thomas.
Joakim Noah would make an awesome janitor, because he makes messes disappear, and he looks creepy while not actually being so.
Andres Nocioni would make a good janitor, because he certainly isn't a good basketball player.

TT 41 minutes tonight, 45 last game. That is his first and tied for 2nd most minutes of the season. Hmmm.
