Jamal Crawford will never start point on a winning NBA team.

Marbury is still NY's best lead guard

oy!

Thats what people said about Billups and Jason Terry.

and Crawford is neither.

Terry did not get respect until he joined the Mavs. Which is not just a good team but it also has a good coach. Jamal could very well be just like Terry or better if he was on the Mavs with their system and coaching staff. Or do you think Isiah is that good of a coach?

Jamal Crawford would play the Jerry Stackhouse role if he were on the Mavs - a wild card. play him if he's hot. sit him if he is cold.

he and Terry are not similar at all. Terry can find his shot in the flow of an offense. asking Crawford to go a possession without seeing the ball is like asking Curry to go a week without seeing McDonalds

Please. Did watch Terry before he joined the Mavs? You don't know what role Jamal would play. Terry was turned into a 2 guard before he left the Hawks. When he joined the Mavs he returned back to the pg. Don Nelson and Johnson could bring out the best in Jamal. I guess you forgot the Jason Terry that would go down court on the Hawks and fake out his teammates? I guess you forgot Terry the player that would run a 1 on 3 by his dam self? Tony Parker would also be a out of control player but he had Pop and great players around him.

was Terry selfish in Atlanta? yes. Is Crawford's problem selfishness or is it thats the only way he knows how to play. Larry Brown couldn't get a 2 week stretch out of Crawford...Pop is? When NY started winning under Brown it was with the Marbury-Nate starting backcourt. And what does Tony Parker have to do with this anyway?

Larry started winning when Marbury and Nate were in backcourt? What year are you talking about? We won 23 games. Pop helped Tony Parkers game you forgot? When Tony use to play out of control Pop would sit him down and talk to him instruct him along with his 10 other assistant coaches. You are bring Larry Brown like that is a good thing. There were no players that were productive under Larry except Frye. So I don't know why you would use that as an example.

the January stretch before injuries sunk the team. And Tony Parker at no point in his career ever came down court, crossed his man 27 feet from the basket and shot an off-balance 3 pointer. you're bound to get those at least twice a game from Crawford. Parker use to play too fast, Crawford is just plain reckless.

Pop coached Tony in how to use his speed.

Unless you are going to totally reign him in and stop him from shooting, how do you coach Jamal's approach to the game? And if he is not shooting, what other way does he considtently look to impact the game?

Tony's speed is the main reason he is unstoppable. I like the way you are down playing Tony's man attribute to his scoring which is speed not passing. Pop also got Parker to not shoot so many jumpers. He got Parker to drive until he develop a real shot. This is the main thing Jamal can improve on. Driving and shooting. As far as Jamal's impact on the game. If Jamal is not scoring he can pass or get steals in the passing lanes. I can' believe you are miniumizing Pops contributions to Tony's development. If you were to tell Tony Parker that Pop only help him with is speed he would laugh in your face. Tony Parker went from shooting 41% to like to 50% in shooting because the majority of his shots are drives or foul line jumpshots. Compared to when he first got into the league where he just want to shoot.

I've already seen enough. The New York Knicks are a goddamn joke and my only hope is that they are so bad this year that Isiah gets fired and a competent GM is brought in. I know there are going to be the usual suspects to tell me:
"it's only preseason"
"this team hasn't meshed yet"
"injuries have killed this team so far"

I don't want to hear it, I've seen the same **** over and over again since Isiah the Snake Thomas has taken over and I'm sick of it. I'm just sick of the **** that I have to watch as a Knick fan 82 games of every year. It's absolutely ****ing pathetic.

Peace out Isiah.

My thoughts on tonight game
1. Lee was awful looked like he didnt even want to be there
2. Our perimeter defense was terrbile
3. Curry and Zach cant guard anyone
4. Marbury showed what he was about sitting out tonight
5. Isiah has no idea what he is doing rotation wise
6. Love Chandler and he will be good someday.
7. Team has no identity or purpose have no idea what to expect
