Thomas was drafted based totally on upside. I think people expected him to be the next Ben Wallace. Whether or not he actually will achieve that upside, who knows. You could also look at it as Amir Johnson at almost his best (last year was probably the high point of his career, though I might be wrong here, I didn't follow him with the Pistons) versus Thomas at still the lowest part of his potential, since he hasn't really done much since joining the league. Given that I actually know what Amir can give us, I'd of course pick him over Thomas, or whoever is cheaper.
