It probably would be best for Marbury to go to a team that can contend now. And it won't be hard to get more for him than we gave up. We gave up a lot of assets on paper but a player like Wally is better than anything we actually gave up to get Marbury.

So people who can stomach reading Isola and Lawrence overwhelmingly want Marbury to be traded? What a shocker.

ROFL. That's a good way to look at it

Good to see that you're spinning like crazy already about a trade that hasn't even happened yet.

Yeah, who needs 2 potential lottery picks and cap room and the financial flexibility that comes with it, that we could have used to lure a good free agent after next season when you can have Wally and his ridiculous contract.

With or without Marbury we would have still been over the cap. What FA would we have gotten?

AI and Brown butted heads for years and only got the finals a couple of times.

Brown threatened to quit the sixers numerous times over AI but the owner refused to trade him due to his immense talents and incredible fan support. Steph lacks those credentials and will not be afforded the 'untouchable' status.

Its in Marbury's hands to turn this dream of playing for the Knicks in a terrible nightmare with a bad ending, at least for him. Now he has the chance to become a leader, show good attitude, leave the past behing and build a new image of him in NY, yet it seems that now that everything is in his hands, he keeps messing up things. This was his team and would still become his team if he wanted it. You just have to follow Brown no matter what and do whatever he asks. If it doesn't translate into wins then let the coach explain that, but let everyone know you are doing everything he asks. Curry and Frye still have a long way to go before they are franchise stars. Both have great potential, but thats it. Steph is the one that is supposed to be established in this league. If he lets this opportunity slip away, the best he can hope is to be traded to a contending team that just needs another role player. If he wants to be a STarbury, this may be his last real chance...

I think Marbury and Brown need more time. The games we've won this year, Marbury has set up Crawford and defered to Crawford in the 4th quarter. That's what needs to happen for this team to win.

Also, it would help if AD broke his leg and retired.

It's easy to trick those polls.

Who Cares what that poll says. I am still pulling for Stephon to perform well on this team.

AI and Chauncey had more than 23 games to mesh into LB's system, and so will Stephon.

The Knee Jerks will always react. We need some more patience.

It's not about having Marbury adjusting to Larry's system. Coach Brown wasn't too fond to have marbury as his point guard to begin with.. He just doesn't like marbury's game because Marbury will never play "the right way"

A.I. and Billlups played D, marbury doesn't..

AI and Brown butted heads for years and only got the finals a couple of times.

Exactly. You clearly understoood my point, Martin.
