You heard? From who? I Thomas? Come on?
On ESPN. They threw out some numbers, was doing something else, but it involved being the worst in the league defensively.
The guy is in spring training. How can anyone say anything bad about IT---how many great players unable to do what he did? Its hard to average almost 30 a game and win the best record in the east. Defense is a scheme and this is offensive league. If you dont think so go look at best teams--they score a LOT.
Ive said plenty of positive things about Thomas. Cant get around his injury, or his D. Not interested in an Amare situation again.
The gist of what they were also saying that Thomas has to adjust to not being the man, on a team with LeBron, and other stars. He's apparently dominating the ball too much. Dont know thats true, will have to watch the next game.
