KT is another guy taking a lot of heat on this board. In his defense I have to say Riley, Van Gundy, Chaney, Wilkens and Don Nelsen and Zeke have all thru words and or actions indicated that they thought he was a pretty good player. You may think some of the above may not be very good at what they do - but do you think they're all wrong. I don't. Kt is a solid player.

Why is it that they say good thing about KT but when it comes to talking about trades they seem to want nothing to do with KT. Another thing JVG used KT as a backup and thats what KT is a solid backup. When JVG had to use him in the starting lineup after LJ retired JVG retired from the Knicks why because he saw no future on the KNicks. My problem with KT is that he is a jump shooting fool. This team needs a post presence at PF and KT doesn't bring that. I think having a strong post presence is the key for players like H20, TT and Marbury.

KT's defense is overrated, unathletic, and foul prone. I always felt that the KNicks will not win with KT as their starter. This team with KT as the starter is close to 30 games under 500 since his insertion into the starting lineup. You get KT out and you will realize how great life after KT is.

Amen brother.....do I even need to post anything after that

I just wanna add the fact that Don Nelson, and whatever name you can bring up could say what they want about a player. I have two eye's. I never let peoples opinions sway me to go in another direction just because they are supposed to be experts.

When KT pump fakes his jumper then dribbles off...when the defense stops him doesn't it make you cringe? I mean that is just about all the offensive skills the guy has. Insert Juwan Howard, Rahim, or your favorite power forward and it's a big difference.

kurt sucks,why are you even arguing?can you not see him play?

he has no offense: decent wide open shot(doleac's was better), can't go anywhere once has the ball

his defense for some reason is overated-cannot get off the ground, hence can't get a block. can't move his feet, hence can't keep up with any players with any mobility whatsoever.

people on this board say oh but he is tough. i can't tell you how stupid that is. tough? oh so he is good at getting into foul trouble? BRAVO! he can look angry when he's getting dogged? BRAVO. he sucks

can't get meaninful rebounds that anyone else couldn't get

Preach on brother!

Everybody forgets that KT is really limited right now in his kind of game as his finger injury prevents him from really banging with people all the time. That is when he is at his best. And that is when he is an OK starter. Put him next to a lowpost player, C or PF, doesnt matter, and he is gold with his ability to hit the open j. Lakers would lover to have him next to Shaq. He might be our only chance to swing a deal for Kobe along with Houston if his health improves.
