I see what you're saying,and understand that I might be coming off as being a big homer, but if you see the effect Thad has while on the floor you may understand why I'm so high on him. His bb IQ is through the roof, and he's lucky enough to have the physical gifts as well as the natural talent to back that up.

I agree, Bosh is exactly the player the sixers need, and I would be willing to let his defensive short comings slide because of the huge mismatches he creates offensively. To be quite honest, I would much rather trade Iguodala for Bosh rather than Thad Young. Young just intrigues me to the extent that I would kick myself if I was to let go of a potential 24ppg player who rebounds well, has good defensive ability, and only takes good shots.


Oh agreed, I like Thaddeus Young. He's fast, hes strong, he plays well off the ball. He's a hard guy to find in this league.

He's just not even in the same stratosphere as Bosh. And his potential doesn't warrant passing up a young all star pf. yet.

Your friend is a joke.

Philly takes Bosh and runs.

Obviously Bosh, nothing against Thad you just don't do this trade from Toronto's perspective. Also Bosh's injuries are being overblown, he hasn't even missed 1/4 of a full season. It is an 82 game season, he is just skinny and playing center a bit too much.

at this point there is no comparison.one is an all-star while the other one is a 19 years old rookie.Thad has the skills to be comparable with Bosh in the future but it's too early....
