exactly, totally true. Dude was the most idiotic player I have seen in years. Nice guy but, dumber than a bag of bricks and I am so glad we moved him.

He got completely ignored on a team that was pass desperate for a pg..

If he makes a comeback it might be a bigger story then Lin

Douglasanity

Woodson gave him a last chance before the Playoff's started. 1st play, he runs down court right past an open Anthony only to chuck up a bad shot. 2nd play, he runs around in circles ignoring everyone for nearly 15seconds of the shot clock before chucking up another bad shot. Dude was know for dribbling aimlessly until the clock was low then he would pass it to someone like Jeffries.

Dude acted like he was the 1st option always ignoring both Stat and Melo on the floor. Those are the actions of a dumbass player

You'll see those same people asking why we gave Moz away too.

All things considered the change of scenery might help him. I wish him the best. His failure in NY was not for the lack of trying.

guy played more the a 100 games for the knicks and recorded just 1 double digit assist game, thats as many as melo had in just 1 season..

Some times i thought he played with a helmet, cause he has zero periphial..

The shoulder injury is really his on fault, running into picks like a brick wall..Dude has tunnel vision

Not me. I was furious at Dantoni for starting Ron frickin Turiaf over Mozgov for so long. Mozgov is a very serviceable bigman. TD is garbage. Denver stealing Mozgov from the Knicks last minute knowing Dolan was desperate was a real kick in the balls. We were forced to go with an injured Turiaf at center and finished with a sub .500 record

Even though he used him as a trade chip to get Camby?

Knicks wouldn't have had the expiring deals necessary to get Camby without Toney.

And for that, Toney, I salute you.

But he's a good kid and I wish him the best in Houston. Hopefully he can find his game again.

True...TD's legacy as a bball player could be that he was the reason we have Marcus Camby and a possible chip. Not a bad footnote in NBA history.

Yes Moz has proven he was certainly the key to that year's team. Look at the difference he's made at the end of Denver's bench. They stole a real gamechanger for sure.

Trade Hate Koolaid sure lasts a long time, huh?

I dont recall that he was ever labeled as a pure PG. He was always a score first guard even in college, so that is unfair, imo.

As for running into guys to fight over picks, I see that as someone who is playing hard to try and help his team. Maybe you can say his game intelligence is low due to that and his low assist totals.

I would rather have a lazy smart player then a hard working dumb player..
