I think Larry Brown will find a completely different way for Marbury to play. Marbury is an amazing talent that will finally be realized. Larry Brown made Iversons career and saved Billups. I cannot wait for him to come in. I think this is the best thing that has happened to the Knicks since Ewing left. I hope we dont trade Marbury and I hope he wins a few playoff series. I am getting pumped for this season.
Starting lineup: Marbury, Crawford, Q, Sweetney and JJ. I dont think thats our best lineup but I think thats who LB will run.
I agree man! the best thing that happened to us since Ewing left! Last year's Knicks had talent but atrocious coaching and absolutely no defense. This year's team has some guys who like to play defense and player hard and we have plenty of weapons....with Larry coaching we're going to make some noise. Just think what Brown will do for guys like Sweetney, Marbury, crawford & ariza. He might even get the best out of JJ and he can be a huge force if he just learns to stay out of foul trouble. If you think about it, if this frontcourt pans out with Frye doing really well scoring, JJ playing well & Sweetney learning to stay out of foul trouble by picking up stupid fouls there's actually reason to look forward to a detroit like championship run. I definitely think by 2006-07 and nate, frye & lee with a year under their belt, the knicks are going to be amazing! I can't wait til the season starts!
The lineup I want to see is:
C-Frye
PF-Sweetney
SF-TT
SG-Q
PG-Marbury
I don't think it will be JJ & Sweetney in the starting frontcourt. We would be extremely slow. Frye & Sweetney compliment each other beautifully! Sweetney will work his behind off on the boards to compensate for Frye. And Sweetney will score inside while Frye scores from all over the court. One thing I think we're missing is a midrange shooter like Rip Hamilton but we'll see once the season starts! Did I mention I can't wait for it to start!
