If I'm NYK GM.. I'd take the YOUNGER 26 year old! Wire'y strong and Athletic.. could replace KMart.. Run's the floor well and finishes! Did I mention that he was younger!?!?!?!?!

Yes, he did! But he was amnestied by Charlotte.. so we could sign him for the veterans minimum. The Bobcats would have to pay his remaining 16 mil on his existing deal

Both. Ty would be wise to learn from Brand and Tyson, who was a similar player when he came into the league.

What could Thomas possibly learn from Tyson? No shot, No hook, No post moves.
And I would take thomas over brand..... We need to stop obsessing over WASHED UP PLAYERS PAST THEIR PRIME

Brand but he is a Duke player which means he will go for most money.

He can learn anything Tyson can teach him. Tyson is a Defensive Player of the Year and you don't think Ty Thomas can learn something from him? Washed up players passed their prime have their place. As backups, like Kidd was supposed to be. This team can use a starting small forward to push Shumpert back to his SG spot. A guy who knows how to win (like Matt Barnes) is a perfect fit at SF for this team. Elton Brand is an IDEAL backup PF who can protect the rim and bang down low.

Eny, bringin' it back to '94!!!!

I like Brand but the age difference makes me lean towards Thomas.

What happened to Tyrus Thomas? did he lose his game or did he never play well in the nba? I remember people thought he'd be great when he was drafted- it seems like he got worse every single year. I think we had some interest in trading for him a few years ago but he ended up going to the bobcats.

Brand is most likely off our radar because we have no more money

Tyrus Thomas is brutal. Dude only got his contract off being a high pick because of a few games in the NCAA tournament. No chance in hell I'd take him over Brand.
