Hansbrough's NBA Debut

[214Spencer]

It doesn't seem like Tyler is doing too shaby as a pro to me:

Yeah 18 Free throws in two games!

I thought the college refs were "giving" him all the calls?

I hope he does well just as I hope the same for Lawson, Ellington, and DG

Man, the Pacers never play on TV around Columbia. I think they have 2 games all season on National TV. This sucks.

I hope they make the playoffs so i can see Big 50 actually play.

He has a great build for the pros. I expect him to do very well.

Here's a good article about his progress:

The downside of Hansbrough's automaton intensity? Rookie hazing is no fun for his teammates. He goes about the usual chores of bringing newspapers and donuts, but the trash talk has no impact. And why anger someone who's so eager to dish out punishment in practice?

Even the three former Duke players -- Dunleavy, Josh McRoberts and Dahntay Jones -- have given up.

"He doesn't take crap from anybody, so we'd be wasting our breath," Dunleavy said.

Stephen Jackson is a pansy. He should go try badmitton.
