Excellent point.

I don't know how any basketball fan can simply refuse to acknowledge the fact that some players blossom earlier than others. There's no set timetable or exact science when it comes to player development. That's not to say that Williams will become an All-Star, nothing is guaranteed. In fact, if I were a betting man, I would bet against Terrence ever getting an All-Star bid. But to say that its a waste of time to try to develop him is just foolish.

Demens' irrational hatred for Terrence is getting to the point where its kind of creepy...

Oh, and anyone using the term "Twitt" is lame. Unless you're 60 or older, that word should never be used.

The bobcats have been in the league for 6 seasons now. How was he 23 when he first joined if he's only 27?

EDIT: He was 22 when he joined and he's 28 now.


Might have a little something to do with minutes.

And :lol: at being an irrational hater for wanting a "future all-star" to not turn the ball over and learn how to make lay-ups. :roll:

So wait, Gerald Wallace was always that good, it just was his lack of minutes?

No, he is just one of the few examples of players developing at a later age because they didnt have the opportunity to play much early in their careers, Jermain Oneal is another obvious one that jumps out. Both guys were 22 when they got their shot btw, so i dont see how this is even relevant. Twitt doesn't really have that excuse anyway as he is being given every chance to succeed.

Randolph is (Please Use More Appropriate Word). Literally. You don't want him. This guy is going to drive me crazy all season.

Thought this would be a good time for a bump, I have a feeling the votes might change rather quickly.

My mistake, I didn't even attempt to research that. I thought he turned 23 during the 09/10 season..

We didn't have the "Machine," at the time so my post doesn't count!
