I watching him play with the Suns tonight on Tnt. And all i have to say he is really slow compared to our new look Knicks, and Im happy this trade occured. He was too short,and too slow.
It's funny how this whole world is based on one dummy controlling another,and the leader dummy was chosen by a whole bunch of dummies.

I'd rather have David Lee or Channing Frye than Kurt

did you hear Cheryl Miller asked him to describe the difference between playing with Stephon Marbury and Stevie McNash and he said:

Thats easy, with Steph he is always looking to shoot first, with Nash he is always looking to get others involved and then shoot.


WHAT A LOSER HE IS!!!!!! Does he think we forgot the games we saw last year? He almost made KT an all-star!! KT NEVER looked as good on Offense as he did. We got Q and Nate for your punk ass thanks to Steph!!!!

Channing is already better than Kurt.

The Suns got James Jones and he can shoot! Zeke wanted him and didn't get him.

I think Lee is too because he's so versatile and athletic. The only think Kurt can do on offense is shoot jump shots and the only thing he can do on defense is get beaten by opponents' speed. Kurt's a better rebounder than either of those two Knicks but that's the only edge he has.

Let's not go overboard. Neither of those guys are better than Kurt. They do however, work better in our new system and with our new look team.

While what Kurt said was true, it's a kinda sh!!ty way of saying it. The only reason we were able to get what we did for Kurt and the reason he was able to get that extension of his was because of Stephon. Now, he may like to play with Nash better and that's cool, personally, I probably would too. But he shouldn't bite the end that fed him. No way he would have had that many shots with Charlie Ward, Howard Eisley, or pretty much anybody else. Steph is a brilliant pick-and-roll PG.

Besides which, it's not totally true that Steph is a shoot first PG. Last year, and from the few games I've seen this year, he always looks to pass first in the 1st and 2nd quarters. He usually feels the need to take over games in the 3rd and 4th quarters which is when he scores most of his points. But really, who else is going to take the shots at the end of games.

Don't y'all remember the couple of time Lenny gave Kurt the game winning pick and roll play?

yes and that is all BBall IQ. He has no athleticism so you must give him props for grabbing boards.

But I'd take either of them over him. I'm glad he's gone. NO MORE LAYUPS!!!!

Every player in the NBA would say the same thing but KT is wrong for saying it?

The only players who say the same thing are the ones on the Suns who don't want to upset their current PG.

whoa!! I dislike Kurt as much as any other true blue knick fan, but KT is hardly injury prone. When his pinky was hurt he went on a streak of like 20 straight made fg's spanning 3 games.

LMAO Yeah, that's it. I can just picture you trying to type that with a straight face.

Wasn't there a player's poll in SI last year that asked who the best PG in the NBA was and Nash won in a landslide? Gee I wonder why they think that. Apparently they did that so they wouldn't upset Nash. LOL

What does that have to do with Marbury? I said only the Suns' players complain about Marbury's passing. I never said Nash was considered a bad passer.

BTW, here is what Kurt said when he was actually playing with Marbury:

Kurt Thomas
On Stephon Marbury: He is our general out there and he gets everyone involved. He really tries to get Jamal (Crawford) and Tim (Thomas) involved early and then everyone else just feeds off of that.

The guy hates marbury. He wanted to go at it with him.

Besides, Nash was the reigning most valuable player.

You guys gotta lay off the kool aid!

NY fans are considered the most knowlegable and some of you are just being tainted unobjective fools.

KT was an almost all star a few years back before Marbs. The guy has a few years left. We all called for Isiah to move him and turn to youth. No need to kick him down the stairs!

Even without Amare the suns could likley finish with a better record than the knicks!

And why do we care so much anyway?

Kurt was never the core of any of our problem. He was a PF playing center cuz we did not have a better solution!

Seems like many players are happier when they get away from marbs.

Bonnie,

Half the NBA blows smoke up everyones ass and tells them what they wanted to hear. These guys are always in the best shape of their life, ready to have a break out season, and am really excited abou the upcoming season.

It is rare to diss a team mate while still on the team.

He just seems to sustain a lot of nagging injuries.
