Amen. He’s arguably one of two best players on team.

He’s got innate ability to play bigger than himself. He is a very creative and successful player. I’m dumbfounded at the complaints that seem to come out through every game.

It’s like people don’t understand basketball.

TJ’s weight prevents him from being great.

He needs to do a junk food diet. Or maybe his metabolism is unusually fast?

eddog

1/19/20 10:16am

I definitely think that any individual can put on weight.

Jkdotstow

1/19/20 10:18am

It’s hard for some people. Blanket statements are silly

cougarmanguy

1/19/20 10:19am

We’ve already seen that his genetics can still put on weight in TylerHaws

Jkdotstow

1/19/20 10:23am

Literally, you have no idea what you are taking about

cougarmanguy

1/19/20 10:24am

I’m not saying they are identical, but you are discounting entirely that

Jkdotstow

1/19/20 10:37am

No it's not... I've known and know many people who struggle to gain weight.

Cougar TD

1/19/20 10:38am

And We’ve seen time and again, basketball players that were tiny

Jkdotstow

1/19/20 10:42am

Stop. You don’t know enough to offer an informed opinion on him. Just stop

cougarmanguy

1/19/20 10:51am

And you do? Do you really know TJ enough to say this isn’t true?

Jkdotstow

1/19/20 10:52am

I know enough about this stuff In general to know people who talk don’t know anything

cougarmanguy

1/19/20 11:21am

He doesn’t have to know about TJs ability to gain weight

puntersarepeople

1/19/20 9:27pm

Yeah, just look at the Kuresa brothers...

foofcoug

1/19/20 11:12am

I thought one of them was adopted. The Fua brothers are good example though.

cougaman

Siblings don't have the exact same genetics.

mulletino

1/19/20 10:24am

You're assuming Tyler got better because he got bigger. Maybe he just got better

ochobeeguy

1/19/20 3:54pm

Yeah, that's just not true.

Cougar TD

Josh Sharp tried his entire career and couldn’t

puntersarepeople

I couldn't put weight on until I hit my mid-30's. I didn't gain any weight for

The description you give of yourself and your profile name make us all very mad

Coug Man in Florida

Simply not true. I have been following strict nutritional and exercise

Any individual can put on worthless junk weight. It’s valuable weight (muscle)

Coug Man in Florida

1/19/20 10:48pm

I have the same problem, I have to eat 6000

Lakerone

1/19/20 2:42pm

Bingo. There are several people that need way more calories and for any gain to

Coug Man in Florida

1/19/20 10:51pm

As for Haws’ weight

cougarmanguy

1/19/20 10:18am

Amen. He’s arguably one of two best players on team.

Idahofallsblue

1/19/20 10:22am

He could do five great things and one bad

cougarmanguy

1/19/20 10:23am

I understand basketball. I should have included that I think he is the smartest

Jkdotstow

1/19/20 10:25am

It can be really hard to do that. Shawn Bradley desperately tried to gain

CougarTailDevourer

1/19/20 1:04pm

Is it even arguable? He’s second only to Childs. Toolson is a distant 3rd.

ldssdl

1/19/20 10:59am

Toolson is less distant than some think

puntersarepeople

1/19/20 12:40pm

Toolson better than TJ in scoring, FG%, FT%, 3FG%, Assist to TO ratio, Rebounds

AZ Coug

1/19/20 4:33pm

Lol. Go watch some USD highlights he is a good shooter

puntersarepeople

1/19/20 6:03pm

A good shooter who is the 9th best 3-point shooter on this team

AZ Coug

1/19/20 6:08pm

Go read what I wrote below

puntersarepeople

1/19/20 6:27pm

Toolson is not a good teammate. His game disrupts the flow of the offense and he

AltaCougar79

1/19/20 9:05pm

No he helps us a lot. His pace is weird sometimes

puntersarepeople

1/19/20 9:24pm

Mark Pope says otherwise. I'll stick with Pope's opinion. Thanks.

AZ Coug

1/19/20 9:52pm

I wish gaining muscle was as easy as people make it sound

jes2332

1/19/20 1:23pm

TJ is amazing. Love that kid.

mulletino

1/19/20 10:21am

Lol TJs game is nothing like Tyler’s

puntersarepeople

1/19/20 11:38am

TJ is great.

PJMort

1/19/20 11:42am

Give me a break. He shows up everyday, scores points...

CougarBuddy

1/19/20 2:45pm

That’s your criteria for being great? Lol.

ocho quatro

1/19/20 2:57pm

What's yours?

CougarBuddy

1/19/20 3:48pm

If you're going to attempt over 600 3s as a PG you have to shoot better than 35%

AZ Coug

1/19/20 5:11pm

Lol. You know the Rockets shot 33% from 3 as a team in 2017-2018

puntersarepeople

1/19/20 6:10pm

Shooting 40% since the first four games when he was in a slump

puntersarepeople

1/19/20 6:34pm

What's your %

CougarBuddy

1/19/20 6:47pm

You'd rather have the 9th best 3-point shooter taking the most 3s on the team?

AZ Coug

1/19/20 7:34pm

You must have some axe to grind because you refuse to listen to anyone

puntersarepeople

1/19/20 8:02pm

An axe to grind because I think a 35% career shooter shouldn't be #3

AZ Coug

1/19/20 9:53pm

TJ’s started more games than anyone ever pretty much

puntersarepeople

1/19/20 10:11pm

I'd rather him take those shots than you.

CougarBuddy

1/20/20 6:36pm

Ahh. College sports. Where grown, straight men can unironically opine

ebv

1/19/20 2:51pm

I agree with you, but what does being straight have to do with any of this?

SingleStrapBackpack

1/19/20 3:18pm

Straight dudes aren’t typically that into the physique of other men.

ocho quatro

1/19/20 3:42pm

You think he weighs too much?

ochobeeguy

1/19/20 3:51pm

Like Reggie Miller and Kevin Durrant?

Coug Dude

TJ is exceptionally quick and deceptively strong.
