seemingly, TT's sister's death has effected him for the 7 years prior to last season as well in that case...& i really don't mean to make light of his sister's passing, but the facts are simply that TT has been a gross underachiever his entire NBA career, & there's nothing that suggests he'll ever be anything more than that.

and yet u just did

in my book you're a focking loser for doing that

I see plenty of reason to believe LB will give tt the contract year of contract years.

Meaning what? He gives him a lot of time? Features him in the offense? Gets him to play at a whole different level?

I don't see it happening. i think TT is nothing but a tease. He and KVH are both fools' gold. The amount of money they both make off of their occassional brilliance and the hopee lhat it will ever amount to consistency is absolutely astounding.

Isiah said of KVH's softness: your not soft if you avg 8 rebounds a game!

Still traded him.

KVH gets hurt, gazy is afraid to get hurt.

I feel for TT's loss. But we all have a job to do and can use the pain to motivate and the time on the court as a refuge from your problems!

Camby's situation was weird. It shook him up badly. very delicate man and he did not shake it off. Again, I feel for him, but in the end nothing tragic happend. He could have gotten thru it. I know that sounds a bit hard, but this is a multimillion dollar business. All the help you can imagine is at your fingertips. The best docters, private planes, cars, you name, is at your finger tips.

Camby in many was a bit immature. Good talent. I think Isiah has learned to look into his draftees head a bit before measuring the talent on the court. Camby's career in toronto was a dissapointment, and in NY he reached his potential just briefly. There were reasons JVG did not trust him.

i apologize if you took it that way...i just said i wasn't trying to make light of it but apparently the message did not come across...just the excuse being used by posters of his personal problems last year can't be used to explain away the prior 7 years of underachievement he's had over his entire career...that was the only point i was trying to make.

Pizza, TMS was just talking about basketball here (TT). It didn't look to me like he was making any of this personal or insincere.

u dont bring up someone's family like that. thats not talking basketball.

follow along w/the conversation nimrod...the reference to TT's family was made in RESPONSE to knicks1248 who referred to Camby's sister being kidnapped in a prior situation in comparing the varying Knick's fans' reactions to that & to how TT's play was effected last year because of his own personal tragedy.

i can care less what you think about me personally, but at least get your freakin' facts straight before you call people out for their comments...the topic is Tim Thomas & what we can expect out of him this year...the topic of personal tragedy was brought up in relation to TT's play last year...i made the comment that his play has been that way for his entire 7 year career prior to last year, so the personal tragedy thing can't be used to explain away every year prior to last year.

you, like the moron that you are, chose to bash me after completely misinterpreting the point i made to begin with...& after that you chose to take a high moral self righteous stand against me even after i tried to explain the point i was trying to make a second time...you call me a loser, i think you're a complete moron...we're even.
