He's like the 6th option here....bygones are bygones. For the role he has on this team he's perfectly capable.

... wasted talent.
here is where I actually stick up for the guy. He's a good player. Not great. Its hard to get your head around seeing a player with his size and athletic ability who isnt great. TT isnt aggressive. When things are going his way he goes with it and can be a 100% impact player. When things dont go his way you can see him just go eh... its not my night. Thats lame.

But I will give him credit for being in shape. I know its lame, but at 31 he's just as athletic as Chandler at 20. At least in that regard he's a good pro and he will give you these kinds of games. Like he was in Milw he really is the perfect sub. You love having him, so long as your not winning and losing your games as TT goes.

Curry is a waste of talent, because he's never shown up here ready to play. Even in that great year with us he averaged what? 7 rebounds? Unreal. At least TT is playing and helping us win (some nights)

i still hate him for the same reasons i hated him before... he still coasts up & down the court & only shows an effort for short spurts on most nights.

I love this guy. It's not a player's fault if he gets hyped up by the media. Same with Darko. It's not Darko's fault he went 2nd.

Timmy Thomas is upon us. Welcome back, TIMMY!

He is a wasted talent because a) he could've been a star, b) has great nights followed by many more disappearing acts.

But its true, lets not call him wasted talent, just ADD player as sometimes he cares, others he doesn't. But he goes out there and works, and thats more you can say of Curry. He IS wasted talent.

Give it up for Timmy. He plays hard. He plays both ends of the court. He loves being a Knick. He is a solid teammate.

I know he gets hate but TT.2 has been awesome. Give the guy his props!

TT and Harrington >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Crawful/Zachass.

Give it up to Donnie Double You. Two great trades for our future and seemingly for our near term as well!

Yes, we are. Get the hate out... the guy is playing his heart out. Get the whole "my god he should be a superstar because hes athletic and 6-10" out of your head. 'Cause that ship sailed years ago yet people try to peg it on him.

The guy plays hard, loves being a Knick, and has been instrumental in our good play.

Give it up for Timmy T.

ur telling me to get the hate out is pretty funny... that said, i never expected Tiny Tim to be a superstar... just would appreciate him showing some effort on a consistent basis & not just when he feels like it... watch him carefully during any game & i guarantee u he will be spotted at least 70% of the time coasting up & down the floor, not going hard after rebounds, settling for easy turn around jumpers rather than banging for position down low & taking it strong to the hole... he plays hard when he's feeling up to it, which is very seldom.

Why is that? (lol) Cause I hate on Crawful, Zachass, Truckbury, McCurry, Malik and Jerome? Well, yeah, touche if so.

Yet, Timmy has played very well. He is what he is. He's not the 6'10" superstar people think he should have been so you gotta throw that out the window. He plays solid overall. He makes some stupid decisions and sometimes takes the game into his own hands when he shouldn't but overall he's been very productive and again: He plays with the team concept, he loves being a Knick, he plays both sides of the ball to the best of his ability.

What do you want? If Robersuck was doing this you'd be estatic! Which is kinda my point. Give it up for TimmyT he's done us good this go around! Is he a keeper? NO. Is he a star? NO. Yet, he's playing his role and he's doing it very well.

if Robersuck was making anywhere near what Tiny Tim's pulling down i'd expect a much better performance out of him... he's already disappointed me enough as it is.

i'm not saying Tim's not filling his role... i'm saying he can be better & give us more than he's giving, & all it takes is a little bit of effort on his part... & that's not saying i expect superstar performance out of him, but a little defense now & again & some hustle wouldn't hurt... even scrubs like Fishlips & Robersuck provide that no matter how crappy they are.

Timmy got most of his points today off made open 3 pointers tonight... those shots will not go down for him on most nights on a consistent basis... i would much rather see him score 10 a night by working to gain better position for his shots & using his size advantage because he is a very good low post scorer when he puts his mind to working for his shot rather than thinking he's Rashard Lewis & launching up 3's after 3's on every possession... i love his versatility in his game but he really should be looking to work more inside & putting some effort into getting better position when he gets the ball on the high post.

it's funny to me but u've consistently ragged on guys like Jamal & Zach because they never showed any effort on defense & shot for a low percentage & yet for the most part both of those guys played hard every night on the offensive end & put up much better #'s than what Tiny Tim's putting up, yet u seem to think Fugazy's worthy of our respect but those guys aren't... where do u draw the line? i don't get it... TT is 6'10" & he's shooting a pathetic 38% from the field & 4 rebounds in 23 minutes... his numbers should be way better than that... not expecting superstar results, but u know damn well he's capable of a lot better.

How bout Tim Thomas is what he is......when all is said and done.....he's still a good basketball player. I'm glad he's back cuz he's playing great off the bench for the Knicks.

yeah, he's fugazy... i know & accept that fact... don't mean i gotta respect a guy who coasts on the court & doesn't give a max effort.
