    Everyone doubts this guy will ever be a great NBA player and they could be right. But I was thinking, he's projected to go mid-to-late in the first round and will probably be picked up by someone other than the Spurs. But couldn't you see this guy working well in Pops system? Hard-nose defender, all heart, can play the 3 or 4. I don't know its just a thought. Am I the only one whos ever thought this?

    Caucasians from the ACC tend to stiff in the NBA.

    This guy is already a stiff in the NBA according to 100% of sports writers and pretty much everyone else. The guy works hard he should be looked at. Do the spurs have a first round pick this year?

    No we don't have a first rounder, and there are plenty of guys who work hard in the NCAA.

    He's a hard-nosed "player," but is a very suspect defender

    He'll be a first rounder, just like JJ Red , and there will be another GM with ACC buyer's remorse. They can't seem to resist picking these borderline NBA players with first round picks, when they would have a hard time making the average team as a training camp invitee.

    Hansbrough is an "energy guy".

    More often than not the phrase "energy guy" is just code for limited skills and athletic ability.

    It means he's whiter and stiffier than Cherokee Parks was.

    That should tell you something.

    Who in the world gave you the crazy idea that he can play the 3? I'm sorry but he will be a bust in the NBA, maybe slightly better than Mark Madsen at best.

    he's not big enough to be an NBA 4, he's nowhere near athletic enough to be a 3. he's not much a defender, there's just very few legit posts with size in the ACC the last couple of years to expose him (Cole Aldrich did last year).

    and, not to take this off on a political tangent (but to point out an issue of perspective) - but if he were african-american and had not gotten the bloody nose, you'd never hear 2 words about him being a harder worker than anybody else. beasley had to fight through triple teams last year with very little help around him - and still put up better numbers in both scoring & rebounding than hansborough. yet, because he was so smooth, he actually was accused of being lazy in some circles.

    Wow. This is so arrogant I can't even respond. Wait that and you I will. He's not a hard worker? The guy was given one of the worst bodies to play basketball with and instead he turns it around works his ass off and becomes the 2nd all time scorer in the ACC and the the number 1 scorer at UNC(The same school Michael ing Jordan attented). He's all effort and heart. and in some circles he was accused of being lazy? what circle was that...the circle jerk you and your friends had last week? All people have said about T-hans since he has made a name for himself is how hard he has to work, I don't know what the youve been watching. Suck it you pussy.

    I think he might be a good hustle player (like our old buddy M. Rose)

    Never ever began to even insinuate that he wasn't a hard worker. Merely referring to the media's obsession with calling him the hardest worker in college basketball.

    The vast majority of successful NCAA players work THEIR ASSES OFF - not just Psycho T. In addition, Hansbrough has more god given talent than he is given credit for.

    What the made you so defensive? Did I dare to imply that the man in the picture that you keep underneath your mattress wasn't perfect?

    I'm sure he'll send you a nasty PM for that.

    Not a chance. Tyler Hansbrough got more press than Beasley last year because he was one of the best players at North Carolina, one of the most storied basketball programs in the NCAA. Beasley suffered from the fact that he played at K-State which is not a traditionally strong basketball school.
