he's mentally throwing in the towel. Shame he's letting himself wind up like this.

And you have to consider the fact that up to his NBA career, he was ALWAYS on a winning team. He ends up on the 76ers and now look at him. And he's still young.

That probably says a lot about his mental toughness in the face of adversity, or lack thereof.

He didn't deal well with adversity at Duke either. He was their most talented player, but Tyus Jones carried that team in so many ways. The Sixers I feel have only contributed a little bit to his struggles, but I honestly feel like he wouldn't look so defeated if he was a Laker which tells me a lot about him.

If you recall there were rumblings of maybe reuniting the two perhaps in Philly, but I think Jah needs Tyus more than Tyus needs Jah.
