Well the question is if Frank is still a Knick next season and all of a sudden finds his mojo.....Would anyone trade Marbury?

Are you Scott Layden?

Well, yeah for a few players I would trade Marbury. But that has nothing to do with Frank Williams.

sure it does, stephon would only be tradeable if williams

finds his mojo

.

okay............i've been hitting the home made beer preety good so far tonight so go easy on this but.........

New York trades: PF Mike Sweetney (4.3 ppg, 3.7 rpg, 0.3 apg in 11.8 minutes)
SF Tim Thomas (14.7 ppg, 4.8 rpg, 1.9 apg in 31.6 minutes)
PG Stephon Marbury (20.2 ppg, 3.3 rpg, 8.9 apg in 40.2 minutes)
New York receives: SG Tracy McGrady (28.0 ppg, 6.0 rpg, 5.5 apg in 39.9 minutes)
SG Grant Hill (28.0 ppg, 6.0 rpg, 5.5 apg in 39.9 minutes)


and we get their pick.

we ofcourse draft okafor and we have

pg-williams
sg-houston
sf-mcgrady
pf okafor
c- nazr

and it still leaves alot of other players to try and trade for a centre.

does orlando do it to get rid of hill's contract??????

do we do it and take on hill's contract

actually i must be sobering up cause i dont know if orlando would do it.

i'll leave this post up so we can diss.......debate it.

I am a huge Frank williams fan but this choice is easy. Steph is on the cusp of being an elite player.... nuff said...

I think Baron and Marbury are tied for being the best all around players, but that's not the point. Teams need superstars to win championships, anc clearly, Marbury is that player. If we can get him for another superstar, consider it, but for now, he's out guy.

That discussion is mainly stupid. If anyone of you can name one team in this league thas has won the big prize without a super-star, then I will say trade Marburry. One of the reason why Ewing didn't win a championship is because he didn't a star PG like Marburry in his team. Some of you are simply blind by size, and you remind me a lot of a woman who just don't know what she wants in life. We are on the right track now, all we need is a decent big man with a postup move and energy. We will also need a coach that a la Larry Brown that can bring the best out of players here in N.Y.

no, the reason why ewing did not win a championship was the overall talent surrounding him not just a pg. houston beat us with kenny "the jet" smith as their primary point guard. he was clearly the bottom half of the starting point guards but that team knew their role. but i sitll do think old school in which there are postions on the floor that are more important than others namely the 5 and 1 positions. if you have those two positions established with all-stars, then you have an advantage. true, the 4 position has been the creme of the crop postion as of the last five or six years. but only one team won with power forward as their best player: the spurs: even then, they needed robinson to win those two championships. i think we have the pg position in capable hands. i think in a year or two, he will be the best point guard in the league. now we need that 5 who can establish the paint for us ( ilgauskus or dampier?).

wow, this is an interesting trade. I kinda like it for both teams.

IT will never trade marbury. It is his signature move, no way he could do that now.

talent is talent is talent. Isiah is a cold-hearted man. Just the way we should all like our GM's. If he could somehow get T-Mac for Marb, I think he would go for it. McGrady is a first line, top-5 player in the NBA who can carry a team for months at a time. I would think Isiah recognizes this.

I'd hope the same, but I fear he wouldn't.
I'm full ready to see marb go provided we get someone better, I'm just not sure IT could do a U turn.
