I hope it's not over. He is a pretty handy player and I dont think was ever quite utilised the best way possible.

I think it's sad that NBL coaches play small ball when things are going wrong. It doesnt help anyone in the long run.

my best moment was when the Breakers cut him.

Tim's career is over. He ruptured his Achilles 2 weeks ago. With his size I doubt he'll ever rehabilitate it enough to play in the NBL.

Yeah, that'll probably do it. My favourite moment was how surprised the commentators were everytime he hit a triple!

I used to cry every time he touched the ball outside the arc and curse every time he put up a 3, a small sigh of relief if it happened to go in

His 38% three point shooting from the centre position in 08/09 wasnt good enough for you? In fact, over the past three years he has shot at around 40%!

Loved watching his game! What a star!

I had the privilege of visiting the Breakers training facility a few years back when Tim was with them. I was very surprised to see his name on the leader board for some of the shooting drills. Consider that this was a team that had noted shooters such as Penney, Jones and Forman on it he certainly can hold his own given the opportunity.

Paul re: His 38% three point shooting from the centre position in 08/09 wasnt good enough for you?

not when there was Oscar Foreman, CJ Bruton, Kirk Penney etc on the court in the same uniform. wrong player to be taking those shots.

so he should pass up open 3s as a 40% career shooter, just because he is a centre? please.

when there are at least 3 other guys on his team that are way more capable of knocking down that shot, yes all day pwned

so based on his 40% are you all messaging Marty to sign him quick to solve the Sixers scoring issues???

yer he wont be a huge loss, hes really soft and prefers to jack up threes (at a good percentage) but still doesnt rebound or utilize his size enough...
still definately a 1000000 times better player than i could have been, but somewhat a waste of size and talent e.g. shooting ability

mystro, behrendorff played his role perfectly. last season i think nearly all his threes were taken from the top of the key on that little pop when his defender left him to help on a driving ervin. he played his role perfectly for the hawks. you expect too much out of people.

its hard to argue a point without some sort of context, so lets say, penney or bruton or forman were double teamed, or behrendorffs man had left him to help out on these scorers, your saying he should hold on to the ball until someone else is free, or the shot clock expires?

just a couple of points...

- he wouldn't have taken those 3s without the go ahead from the coach, but obviously you think that lemanis or mccleod dont know what they are doing.

- TB took 21 threes in total last season. less than one a game. hes not hurting the team.

- Adam ballinger took 56 threes and made 16 at a shooting clip of 30.2%

cheers

I didn't see many Hawks games last season as most televised games out of Australia were of Sydney and he may have played well for them but I could care less. I cared how he played for the Breakers and was glad when he was cut and replaced. They then went on to win the championship, great coaching Lemanis ;) I'm sure he knows a thing or too about coaching, good call on the cull.

Tim Behrendorff is not going to read this and have a cry so I'm not sure why you two have lol
