He was called up by the Rockets for the last couple of the weeks of the season and he's on the playoff roster. He did go back to D-League for the championship game but I believe it was just for that one game. Brass Cannon 1 Quote

recker222000 Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 Troy's game is much better suited for the NBA than Bryant's is. Troy always had the athleticism and physical characteristics you need for the NBA, he just needed to develop the basketball abilities. Bryant needs to develop both. Agreed troy is way better suited for the NBA. Maybe bryant Bryant will prove me wrong but he has a long way to go.Sent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk Hoosierfan2017 1 Quote
Old Friend Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 What he needs to do is sign with a guy who can teach him decent footwork so he can play with his back to the basket. He does not currently have a single skill that translates well into the NBA game. He has a ton of work to do. recker222000 1 Quote

8bucks Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 May need an agent to help overseas. Good luck either way recker222000 1 Quote
Oladipo Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 This is the best thing for the program considering this year wasn't looking like the year anyways. Give the bigs plenty of playing time this year and development. Bring in Garland or Langford for '18 and that's gonna be one hell of a squad. ALASKA HOOSIER and pumpfake 2 Quote

We have a good coach and return talent. A 22-10 type record could be possible.Sent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk Class of '66 Old Fart and ALASKA HOOSIER 2 Quote

While you certainly don't want a mass exodus of players when a coaching change is made, just because the existing players are talented doesn't mean they are a good fit for the new system. Bryant has definite flaws and strengths and he's the one guy that could possibly retard the transition to CAM's style the most. Like "O" said, get the young guys some experience so they can improve and become proficient in playing the way Archie wants his team to - this should be the best thing for us long term. Quote
ramadden13 Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Good luck Thomas! If I could get paid to develop my skills with no distractions versus doing it for free while balancing school, I would too. IUsafety, Travis Scott, MemphisHoosier and 2 others 5 Quote

But he's going to get his @$$ kicked. Uggghh. And this is what is wrong with the system right now. The people paying outrageous prices for NBA tickets, apparel, parking, and food in and around arenas are the ones fitting the bill for guys like Bryant to improve his game while riding a bench or even playing D-League games. Call me old school but the NBA was a much better product when these kids developed their game at the college level and came to the NBA more seasoned and ready to play. At any rate, I certainly do wish TB well and sincerely appreciate the energy and enthusiasm he brought to the floor. That's a big loss for this squad, but I do understand the rationale and I know it does help our current "overage" situation as well. IUBBFan1970, Tom White and ALASKA HOOSIER 3 Quote
waitingon6 Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 Oh yes.. all those aged people... funny thing is, the NBA has never had a deeper And or talented pool of players in its existence. Also, the greatest player to play the game... came straight out of high school. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile appAfter a brief stop at Chapel Hill!
