      Tyson Chandler was NEVER A BUST!! How do you call a player that was having multiple 18+ rebound games in his 2nd year a bust?? YOUR TITLE IS CRAZY AND MISLEADING!! He was a "baby bull" and matured to a valuable player and unlike some of these 2nd year players we are seeing today, if was obvious he wasn't a bust in his 2nd year once he started getting real minutes... He was young, light in the backside but 7ft. He played PF when he came in the league from high school and grew into the center position after he gain "grown man strength" and more craftiness.

    Ben Wallace effect. It started with him reviving the center position. More defensive-minded guys who can run the floor and defend and be rim protectors.

And if you ask me, position should be based on how you play and not size in which I know size really play a huge part in positions. Look at some Jokic, he's a 7 footer and play like a point guard but he's a center. But all of that is the position-less ball that I like.

    I'm from Chicago and as usual the BULLS were being cheap, Elton Brand was a solid player but when it came time for him to get a new contract rather than pay him the BULLS traded him.

      And Chandler was absolutely heartbroken when he got traded on draft night because dude grew up in Compton and thought he got to play for the local Clippers. Instead he got traded to windy Chicago and it was a tough adjustment for the 18 years old straight outta high school both in terms of friends and weather. Chandler himself said he was lonely and played a lot of video games his rookie year. He also credited Charles Oakley of saving his career. If I remember correctly, Oakley invited him over for Thanksgiving his rookie year.

    Hi Andy Hoops! Was wondering if you can make a video about who the best role players are or eirher the significance / importance of role players understanding their roles in order to win a championship etc? I feel role players, in general, does not get enough credit for embracing / flourishing in their roles that also helped their teams.

    3yrs after this video, his torch continues. We see the Mavericks behind the scene where he hand to hand mentored Derick Lively. Lively now has a 74% FG. He told the Mavericks that he is very happy that the Mavericks gave him a project he can work on.

    It's amazing what Chandler accomplised when he did't have the pressure of being "the guy". When he went to New Orleans and Dallas he was able to maximize his strengths and minimize his weaknesses when he was surrounded by stars.

    As a Mavs lifelong fan for 26 years (I’m 29 and started watching when I was 3), I look at the 2011 championship and what happened after differently than most. Chandler was the defensive MVP and was incredible for the Mavs, but at the time Howard was on a different level. When the Mavs played the Magic, Howard would beat Chandler around and Cuban must’ve been thinking, “If we can win with Chandler, imagine the improvement with 3 time DPOY Howard.” Now going for Deron Williams was in hindsight a bad idea, but in the moment we wanted him to come home to the Mavs. Imagine that roster:
    Deron Williams, Dwight Howard, Dirk Nowitzki, Jason Terry, Jason Kidd, Shawn Marion, and Deshawn Stevenson, then add pieces around to make a full rotation. At the time this seemed like a near god squad to go up against the Heat and Spurs.

    The only problem with Tyson Chandler's role in the 2011 run, came in the 1st round against the Trailblazers, where Lamarcus Aldridge was always scoring over him. He was virtually unguardable until Rick Carlisle took Chandler out, replacing him with Brendan Haywood, then things really turned around for the Mavs.

    i think his career blossomed when he went to new orleans with david west, peja stojakovic, and chris paul.. they were solid that time and his focus was on defense where his strength was.
    and the biggest bust that year was the guy picked before him... kwame brown.
