TIM THOMAS CALLS OUT KENYON MARTIN
Tim Thomas needs to remember that he's Tim Thomas. The Knicks are down 0-2 to the defending Eastern Conference champions and have been embarrassed in both games. Tim Thomas was injured in Game 1 when Kenyon Martin committed a flagrant foul against Thomas while he was going up for a layup. Yesterday Thomas just went off to the media about Kenyon Martin.
"Just knowing his character, he's a fugazy guy. I read a comment that Jason Richardson said nobody wants to mess with a pit bull, but I've never seen a pit bull who picks and chooses who he wants to bite."
"He's fugazy as far as the whole tough guy role. You get techs and you get fines and that makes you tough? Because your game is wild and crazy, that makes you tough? When a scuffle breaks out, you have 13 guys that can protect you. When it's you and someone else, what happens then?"
"Somebody call Don King and hook it up for us."
I think that fight I'll take Kenyon Martin over the 6'10'' 185 pound Thomas. Thomas has been accused of being soft his entire NBA career. He settles for fade away jumpers rather than driving to the basket and despite being 6'10'' has very little presence on the boards.
Thomas said this about his possible return in the series.
"My goal is just to get back out there on the court before this series is over so I can go hit somebody. That's it. That's all I'm looking forward to. What's been done to me is going to be done to them. It's very simple."
Thomas better get healthy quickly because there are only going to be two more games in this series.
