Lets be honest, you think TT is living up to that HUGE contract he has with 3 yrs left on it ??? CORE let the hate go for just a moment and tell me the truth, you think TT is a huge upgrade over KVH ??? PLEASE BE HONEST !!! lol... ok ok ok that is asking a bit much from you dawg !!! But just try anyway !!!
Basically, I'd rather have TT & Nazr than KVH & Doleac.
NYVector stole my thunder as for the reasons for that. One thing he neglected to add was the defense factor between the two. TT is more balanced, and has skills we need. We know that TT shoots fairly well from the outside as well as having the quickness to slash to the hoop and run in the break or in transition. He has some post-up moves, too. He also is a better defender that KVH, which is another major factor in why he fits in better. Nazr brings solid D and some rebounding inside.
Isiah Thomas said in the press conference that it wasn't an individual thing, and that he viewed the trade in it's entirety. He said that he would not have made the deal if it were KVH for TT trade straight up.

Another season, and more adversity to persevere through. We will get the job done, even BETTER than last year.
GO KNICKS!
