+1

No it's his fault..He stinks at PG or SG. You dont' need to create a position for him. He might be a nice guy but he will be out the league once his contract is up or 13 man on mediocre team.

dude you obviously have no idea what you're talking about or you're just being way to reactionary. td is great as a scoring guard off the bench. he excelled in the role last year and he will do so for a while. he's a good player just nowhere near a pg.

So what do we do on Defense when he is in there. He is a liability. We have a 6'1 guy with no moves to be a scoring guard? If that's what he is here for Nate did that and did it better. And you must have a different definition of the word "Great" and "Good".

you're right, great is a bit over the top, i admit. but let's just be real here. td has value in this league, he's a much better defender than he's showed this year, he's good at scoring the ball and he usually doesn't turn it over. but facts are facts and the guy isn't a pg. i think him in the lineup with shump works, because shump can control the pg spot and guard 2guards and td can guard pg's.

I'm not sure what games you're watching. He can't guard PGs or SGs. And he isn't a PG or SG. He's always been average at defense. He got steals but always over played and got beat. And he's not good at scoring. Just because he can get hot from 3 every once in awhile doesn't make him a good scorer. He doesn't drive, can't finish layups on fast breaks, bad passer, over dribbler..I can go on. We need higher standards if we are saying TD is a good scorer or good player.

you can't not play him because he is a good player, just not a good pg. unfortunately right now he's gotta play pg. if baron is healthy, td will be first guard off the bench and do a great job at it.

Good player? Ok there's nothing else I can say at this point.

im sure you thought he sucked last year when he was shooting 38% from 3, averaging 11ppg and had a 3:1 to ratio as a 2nd year player.

LOL this is like the Nate Robinson discussion again. Both these guys are third string scrubs that should only see PT if we are seriously injury depleted. I have absolutely no love for TD, never did. I think he tries hrd tough but he neither has je skills nr the mindset. Bill walker can jack up threes more consistently than he can.

there are absolutely NO similarities between nate and td. not one.

The similarity is that I feel the same way about both of them - THIRD STRING SCRUB.

TKF on Melo ::....he is a punk, a jerk, a self absorbed out of shape, self aggrandizing, unprofessional, volume chucking coach killing playoff loser!!

It's now crystal clear how much it has effected the Knicks having TD start at PG. I can't understand why he's doing so poorly tho. He was never this bad.

I'm wondering what it was about TD that has him in my mind as a good defender... or does he hold as high a place in my mind because of those games he'd go bananas from deep?

loweyecue and foedidddy: i think once td actually starts playing his role off the bench you'll agree with me. for now, we agree to disagree. i can dig it.

another 3 from shumpert. dude looks awesome.

Shump showing me lots of PG play. This guy is invaluable right now and for the future. Has been a super 1/2 off the bench, can be our starting 1 for now on and will probably be our starting 2 in the future. Though could easily see him mainly at 1 with his play tonight.

Mike Bibby dipping into the fountain of youth.

Too bad we're not playing defense.
