Is Marquese Chriss the spazziest player in the league? Yes. Let’s get it out of the way right now. Yes he is. Any other player you can think of simply can’t compare to Chriss’ resume. Whether he’s picking up T’s for no reason, trying to fight Kristaps Porzingis, fouling everybody in reach, or nearly killing himself on dunks, Chriss is unmatched in the amount of times he spazzes out per game.
The Tyrus Thomas comparisons look ever more accurate. Thomas took a long time to even think about developing a three-ball, while Chriss has one right away, but other than that, I’m seeing a lot of similarities. Maybe not as much shot-blocking tenacity with Chriss, he could add a little extra spaz to that part of his game.
Speaking of Tyrus Thomas, how he is not still in the league? He only just turned 30. I know he was total garbage by the end of tenure, but usually some time in Europe humbles these dudes into accepting what they are as a player. Now that I look at it, he’s not even on a team right now? Jesus Christ. Let’s hope that Chriss fares a little better.
