Good riddance.
Bye bye dumdum. Go dribble under the basket and then back out without even looking to pass for some other team.
Don't be dicks. Toney Douglas was underrated on this board. He was a good player who just had some inexperience. I think he may still have a decent career.
By all accounts a good guy, too. I sincerely hopes he finds a rebirth in Houston.

he'll hit like 5 3pointers for 1 game next year, and it'll be against the Knicks lol
That should go up in the MSG rafters as a banner RIP
oh and can't wait to play Houston. Hopefully TD is starting at point. We need as many easy wins as possible

+1
douglas could be good if he was actually just injured with his shoulder and can recover.
before that injury he was a upcoming player, who was tenacious on d. how could we hate him then?
then he seemed to lose his confidence.
a new situation made sense for him. he was hard working and a likable player before the injury.
i wish him the best.

But we will win because of his turnover in the final seconds.
ouch...hes a human being...he always tried his best and he never complained...a class act...and i hope he resurrects his career
I know he was hurt but TD making bad decisions had nothing to do with his shoulder. His shoulder wasn't telling him "dribble around aimlessly then launch a brick."
I've been waiting for this day for a long time. GOOOOOOD RIDDIDDYDANCE!
Please don't let the door hit you on the way out.
He's a shooting guard in a PGs body with a shoulder injury that prevented him from being able to shoot consistent. No excuses, but cut him slack. He was what he was. I hope he gets his ish together and turns his career around. He can be a real nice player.
also, douglas was pretty good from three, as i recall, for a bit before the injury too.
Tony Douglas turned into Mardy Collins 2.0 he fooled us too.

I agree, he is just missing some confidence with the right sytem/team that fits his skills and lack of.
It is like when we the entire league said Channing Frye was a bum, he found his role, team/system, and players to mesh in with his skill set on The Suns *Nash helps of course*
I can see him fitting perfect with HEAT if he regains his confidence and shot, could be a steal.
He doesn't need to facilitate there with Wade and Lebron, with plenty of shooters to space the floor for him too.
Toney Douglas turned into Landry Fields or is it the other way around. Who is the plague is it Jared Jeffries?
I hope he does well. He is a high character guy with a tremendous work ethic. Hasn't been the same since his injury. A new situation should be good for him
A good guy, was once a solid defender and tied for most 3s in a game by a Knick. That said I won't miss those cross court passes to the other team. PEACE OUT TD!!!
