First of all, the notion that Dirk hates Tim Thomas is almost certainly false. And I wouldn't really care if he did.

However, this move sucks. And I'm not backing down on this one either. This is stupid. I don't care about numbers (although they suck), I don't care about matchups, I don't care about rotations.

Anyone who has watched the NBA over the past ten years knows that Tim Thomas is a loser. He's a loser. He doesn't care about competing night in and night out, he doesn't care about putting in an effort defensively, he doesn't care about playing within a system. He's a chucker, he's lazy, and he has no business on a team trying to win. He is the antithesis of Dirk in every imaginable way.

Period.

Trying to talk yourself into Tim Thomas based on stats and rotations is, imo, ridiculous.

This....sucks.
