Do any of y'all remember when Tyson Chandler was on like 60 minutes or something when he was like in 9th grade? I must have been in fifth grade or something and I remember my uncle saying dude wasn't going to amount to much. What a dumb ass.

dude was initially a bust.....i remember how hyped up he was his sr year as the next great big man compared to KG and bill russell....gotta give him his credited though, he accepted that would never be a star and found his niche as a defensive/hustle guy and leader...still think that contract he got was ridiculous but thats what happens when the center position is weak as it is...

This kid is pretty much destined to be in the NBA, and if he has a growth spurt and shoots up to 6"4-6"6 it could be a BIG problem.

What gets me is he has the quickness, agility, smarts, and athlete ability at the age for 14. He is already a NBA level talent but his experience is extremely minor. I seen guys who I was amazed by at that age when it came to PG's like Jennings, Marbury, and Irving. He is the best 9th grader I seen play the position since Magic who I didn't see, only heard about. Jason Kidd was super sick as a Freshman in HS too. I still like Thon more as a prospect but I am very impressed by Woods. If he could grow to 6'4, :wow:
