Tyrus Thomas Gets Concussion From Banging Head Against Wall in Frustration

Tyrus Thomas left last night's game with a concussion, though according to the Tribune, it had nothing to do with anything that happened in that game:
The victory might come at a cost after Tyrus Thomas sat out the final 31 minutes 22 seconds with what the team called a concussion. The injury dated to knocks to the head in each of the last two games and nothing that occurred against the Clippers, but Thomas won't travel to Friday's game in Boston.

"He started running and was blacking out," coach Vinny Del Negro said.
Personally I think that when Thomas is banging his head against things during games, that's a good thing. It means he's playing with some energy. On the other hand, maybe he's just banging his head against a wall trying to figure out why he only gets limited minutes, why he's so inconsistent when he does, why Vinny insists on going with a lineup down the stretch that cannot get a defensive rebound, or any other number of reasons.

People always get mad at me for talking about his low IQ in basketball, looks like he's not the smartest person off the floor either.
