Should the "Tim Thomas treatment" be retired?
In a column talking about the likelihood that Starbury ends up in Boston, John Hollinger said "...He missed most of last season with ankle problems, and was Tinsleyed by the Knicks before he ever played a game this season."
Up until this season, that expression used to be "he was Tim Thomas'd," in reference to how Tim was treated by the Bulls in his last stint here. However, with his return and Vinny's willingness to actually play him, is the "Tim Thomas treatment" no longer an applicable description?

"Tinsley'd" is looking better
because he’s been deactivated (while healthy) the longest out of anyone, right? And he still has 2 years remaining!

I think it also helps
that his last name is far more unique than Thomas

and "tinsley" evokes "tinsel,"
which is nice because when those players get benched, they more or less become ornamental.
