Can you...

Name one player that had a rep for not working hard, being lazy....

Name one player that showed flashes of brilliance but never being concistant due to lack of focus/dedication/ DRIVE AND PASSION....

Name one player that has had that rep but actually turned it around to fufill his potential and become an all-star...

I Can't think of one...

So im worried about Eddy Curry


Tim thomas

Chauncy billups

which answers both of your questions

the question is not what players are lazy but have all the tools... the question is what lazy players who have all the tools have gone on to achieve their potential later on.

I guess u can scratch TT from the list, and replace him with Steve nash

Nash wasn't exactly lighting it up his fisrt tour of duty with the suns, but the question is still a little confusing

the curry was never really THAT lazy. I mean its true that he is somewhat lazy, but he isnt like Tim Thomas/Kwame Brown/Olowokandi/Jerome James lazy. he showed improvement every year he's been in the league save for last year, so I wouldnt put him in that category just yet the guys that I just mentioned pretty much averaged the same points and rebounds per game throughout their first 5 season. so while its true tht I cant think of a tt/jerome james, kind of player turning it around and becoming an allstar after years of underacheiving, I dont think that implies that curry is doomed becuase I wouldht put him in the same group with those guys just yet.
