he is a better three point shooter than Jason Kidd...ha, mid 20's were his best years....too bad he shoot bucket loads of shots and usually doesn't make them, although he is a versatile player he isn't versatile when it comes to playing D.

Sorry, 'Toine, it's over for you,

When the mighty Grizz cut you and gave you no playing time, time to seek work in a different feild.

Are you kidding me? This guy can't shoot and he gets lucky if he does make a 3. If a team was playing against this guy, that team would like Toine to take the last stupid shot. His best offense is down low but he does not take advantage of that. He chunks too many 3's. You had him in Miami and he almost cost that team a lot of games because of his horrid 3 point shooting.

how is this funny??? sorry bro but there is not even a microscopic level of humor in that comment....There is a mention of two atrocious teams and that Walker has a ring(no thanks to him by the way) and Lebron(6TH season bro he has atleast 8-10 more elite years in him so cut him some slack) does not....

June 8, 2009  10:24 AM ET

This isn't really isn't news, at best it should be considered a humor article.

June 8, 2009  10:36 AM ET

Antoine, Antoine. You were cut without playing a game for the Grizzlies. The GRIZZLIES MAN! It's time to let the kids play.

June 8, 2009  10:36 AM ET

Might as well bring back Terry Mills too.

June 8, 2009  10:43 AM ET

Everybody deserves a chance to compete.
