Mavs to Sign Tim Thomas

Dallas is expected to ink the immortal Thomas to a one-year deal this week. From ESPN: “Power forward Tim Thomas will visit the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday and the sides are expected to reach an agreement on a one-year deal for the veteran’s minimum his agent, Bob Myers, said Monday. Thomas, 33, played just 18 games with the Mavs last season before leaving the team to be with his ailing wife. He never disclosed his wife’s illness, but she is apparently doing well enough for Thomas to return to the league. Both sides handled last season’s situation in good faith and want to continue the relationship … ‘If all goes well, we’ll reach an agreement,’ Myers said Monday.”

    Liking Tim Thomas is akin to liking fall out boy.
    TT sucks.

    ^if being a good role player on a playoff teams in the past means you suck, then half of NBA players suck too right?

    At least he’s fallen off so much he can’t underachieve anymore.

    I think I could definitely deny that Fall Out Boy made some good music.

  • [...] The Mavericks sign Tim Thomas to a one-year, $1.35 million dollar deal. [Slam Mag] [...]

    Yeah, fall out boy was all bad. They made no good music. At all.

    Fugazi!

    He is certainly no Juwan Howard.

  • MikeC. Posted: Aug.10 at 7:41 pm
    @LA Huey – I very nearly agreed with you, until I remembered that we’re talking about Tim Thomas. A typical 12th man hustles and scraps for minutes and works as hard as possible. Tiny Tim will loaf and slack.

    I think hes been playing since the 70′s.

    TT:tremendous talent yet underachieved tremendously. Much like the majority of villanova products

  • dma Posted: Aug.11 at 3:02 am
    Tim Thomas will only play if he’s in contract, much like the rest of the Mavericks it seems. Dude had so much talent and potential. he and TMac giving me smiles today.

  • al Posted: Aug.11 at 3:47 am
