The wind-up is really long, so it's actually easier to dodge than blitz's pull.

Thresh also pretty much just keeps his target in place, so a real stun (like morgana's, which doesn't even have a wind-up) is also more powerful.

But you do get the extra option to pull yourself in, which hardly anybody ever uses. Also: Blitz and amumu (who also pulls himself in and stuns) are almost always banned in ranked. So Thresh is pretty much the only option if you want to get a similar utility to amumu and blitz in ranked.
