"Splash Tyson, splash!"

okay, i don't think i've ever made a rage thread before, but having not missed a single bobcats game this entire season (with the exception of the cavs game, unfortunately), i've come to the conclusion that tyson chandler is near useless. seriously, what is this guy's deal? i'd never really seen him play for the hornets and only heard good things about him, and he comes to the bobcats and can't do a damn thing.

really, whenever we feed this guy in the post, he either walks with it or turns it over. he doesn't even dribble. ever. he's so bad that he can't manage to get a shot off when he gets the ball down low, and if by some off chance he does, his touch is so bad the ball goes flying off the glass faster than an illegal alien running from la migra.

on top of that, he has one of the lowest basketball IQs i've ever witnessed. he constantly commits 3 seconds in the key (both offensive and defensive) and can't catch passes. he sets illegal picks and never seems to learn from his mistakes.

the only thing i really knew about tyson before coming to the cats was that he can jump. and that's true, he can. he does rebound decently, but there are a ton of better rebounders in the nba (including his teammate who's about 5 or 6 inches shorter than him, gerald wallace). he can dunk pretty well, but he's rarely in the position where he's able to do so, and even then he'll rarely catch the pass. hell, tonight against the jazz he literally missed a wide open dunk.

as a 'cats fan, it's pretty infuriating considering we got rid of emeka for him. emeka's not the best, but he's a solid defender and has a pretty damn good offensive arsenal. i'd say we should trade tyson for someone else, anyone else, but i doubt any teams would be willing to pick him up. i genuinely hope this guy gets injured and nazr eats all his minutes, the team performs way better with him in the lineup. **** you, tyson.

would any team realistically be willing to pick up tyson's contract?

oh the horror

I think a player like Chandler would only succeed around a PG that can dish to him in the right moments. He cannot create his own offense for anything.

The people who said Chandler was an all star level center with the hornets never watched him play. When I said he has zero offensive ability, I wasn't kidding.

Instead of talking about what he can't do, it's a shorter list to talk about what he can do (when totally healthy):

He can defend the pick and roll pretty well. He's a pretty good 1-on-1 post defender, but has a tendency to get in foul trouble which negates that. He is pretty good at tipping in missed shots, but not a dominant offensive rebounder. He can run the floor well and jump high for a guy his size, which means he can catch and finish lobs. But other than that, he has ZERO ability to create a shot and finish. He can't shoot, and that includes FT's. So basically, if he's not finishing lobs or easy putbacks, he's relegated to setting picks on offense.

As another posted stated, he's only a notch above Ben Wallace at the offensive end. He can score if playing with a great PG, but if not, he's useless. He can rebound and block shots, but he's very foul prone. Not a guy you want.

hes always been a terrible offensive player (bulls used to sub him and curry as D and O dictated) but a very solid defender. Seems down this year based on stats (only seen 1 beebcat game), and that may be due to his injury that nixed the OKC trade still hindering him or LB not using him properly. Hes a decent man defender, great help defender and solid rebounder. but thats it.

Magikarp was caught in 2001 by James from Team Rocket on the second try. James traded it to Jesse for sex. Jesse was a horrible trainer and Magikarp never did anything, so she traded it to Ash Ketchum in 2006. After a pretty successful tenure with Ash, he was traded to Misty in 2009.

Ash never develops his Pokemon. He uses them and drops them later for fresher ones, so Magikarp never had a chance to evolve.

So far, Misty has proven to be an idiot, but there's still a bright future for an up-and-coming Magikarp.

"Splash Tyson, splash!"

okay, i don't think i've ever made a rage thread before, but having not missed a single bobcats game this entire season (with the exception of the cavs game, unfortunately), i've come to the conclusion that tyson chandler is near useless. seriously, what is this guy's deal? i'd never really seen him play for the hornets and only heard good things about him, and he comes to the bobcats and can't do a damn thing.

really, whenever we feed this guy in the post, he either walks with it or turns it over. he doesn't even dribble. ever. he's so bad that he can't manage to get a shot off when he gets the ball down low, and if by some off chance he does, his touch is so bad the ball goes flying off the glass faster than an illegal alien running from la migra.

on top of that, he has one of the lowest basketball IQs i've ever witnessed. he constantly commits 3 seconds in the key (both offensive and defensive) and can't catch passes. he sets illegal picks and never seems to learn from his mistakes.

the only thing i really knew about tyson before coming to the cats was that he can jump. and that's true, he can. he does rebound decently, but there are a ton of better rebounders in the nba (including his teammate who's about 5 or 6 inches shorter than him, gerald wallace). he can dunk pretty well, but he's rarely in the position where he's able to do so, and even then he'll rarely catch the pass. hell, tonight against the jazz he literally missed a wide open dunk.

Hahahaha Chandler is Magikarp!!! Classic!!! Spot on! Couldn't think of a better analogy.

I mean, since a Magikarp is a reddish-orange, medium-sized fish, who's notable characteristics include large, heavy scales. Long-lived Magikarp are able to utilize their immense splashing power to leap high enough to jump mountains. Magikarp also have a strong enough immune system to survive in the most polluted of waters. Although this Pok

"Splash Tyson, splash!"

okay, i don't think i've ever made a rage thread before, but having not missed a single bobcats game this entire season (with the exception of the cavs game, unfortunately), i've come to the conclusion that tyson chandler is near useless. seriously, what is this guy's deal? i'd never really seen him play for the hornets and only heard good things about him, and he comes to the bobcats and can't do a damn thing.

really, whenever we feed this guy in the post, he either walks with it or turns it over. he doesn't even dribble. ever. he's so bad that he can't manage to get a shot off when he gets the ball down low, and if by some off chance he does, his touch is so bad the ball goes flying off the glass faster than an illegal alien running from la migra.

on top of that, he has one of the lowest basketball IQs i've ever witnessed. he constantly commits 3 seconds in the key (both offensive and defensive) and can't catch passes. he sets illegal picks and never seems to learn from his mistakes.

the only thing i really knew about tyson before coming to the cats was that he can jump. and that's true, he can. he does rebound decently, but there are a ton of better rebounders in the nba (including his teammate who's about 5 or 6 inches shorter than him, gerald wallace). he can dunk pretty well, but he's rarely in the position where he's able to do so, and even then he'll rarely catch the pass. hell, tonight against the jazz he literally missed a wide open dunk.

as a 'cats fan, it's pretty infuriating considering we got rid of emeka for him. emeka's not the best, but he's a solid defender and has a pretty damn good offensive arsenal. i'd say we should trade tyson for someone else, anyone else, but i doubt any teams would be willing to pick him up. i genuinely hope this guy gets injured and nazr eats all his minutes, the team performs way better with him in the lineup. **** you, tyson.

would any team realistically be willing to pick up tyson's contract?

OP is still right though. Chandler has no offensive game other than putbacks, and is a mediocre rebounder. Not a great shotblocker. Great help-, p/r- and 1on1 defender though.

Magikarp is about to get paid.

As a Mavs fan, I'm ok with him leaving. Fortunately we have Brendan Haywood who can step in and start. Cuban would be smart to not overpay and screw the team for years. I don't think Hawyood is much of a drop from Chandler tbh. Definitely need Roddy Beaubois to step up this season and it wouldn't hurt for Fernandez to do something as well. Need to keep Kidd's minutes down.
