That's why we have to trade this guy... those numbers are just pathetic.

Guys talk about his pick and roll with Marbury like its Malone , Stockton.... cmon Kurt's negatives outweigh his positives.

Kurt is the type of player you add to a well balanced team, not to a team thats desperate for a big man.

I don't get this thread. What do you mean he fears the free throw line? Do you mean he's bad at drawing fouls? We all know that already. You can be bad at something due to lack of natural ability. It's an insult to come up with your own interpretation that the player fears it

Dude, it wasn't literal. He was pointing out that KT should be at line way more, that's it.

Free throws just aren't part of his game. He's still averaging over a double double and has hit a number of big shots to get us back into games (which at this point may not have been so great).
The problem isn't his FT numbers, it's that we're playing him far too much, especially on a team with 5 PFs. He's a great guy to have off the bench, we just use him like he's the only big man we have...although, for a center, he is the only one we have.
Put in Sweetney to draw fouls. Let Kurt use the pick and roll, as long as it's effective.

Kurt simply put, symbolizes all of the bad days that our franchise has accumulated. We have to let him go to brake the cycle....Trade him, he is not getting younger after all.

Oh, okay. Then Stephon Marbury FEARS blocking shots, meaning I'd like to see him get some more blocked shots!

PG's aren't expected to block shots Bonn...PF's should be banging in the paint & getting to the line
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.
