Im thinking Marbs stays, but if Joe Johnson goes back to PHX, ATL needs players and salary to spend!

Pathetic as it may sound, ATL will need a face, and Marbs thru his G.T. days does make a bit of sense. IF we can exploit, and recieve an offer we can't refuse, then he can get moved.

I prefer we keep marbs, but ATL is seriously under the cap, and we are seriously over it.

There is a plan in place, and if it can be accelerated, then do it.

If we can shed marbs, Allan, TT and penny inside of 12 months, one might just consider it.

The success of rebuilding is to clear out things you may still like to make room for the new.

I long championed a rebuild, and there are causualities by doing so.

Im not hating on Marbs, and would be very interested to see him in a LArry Brown system and succeed, but we got to think the bigger picture here and it might not Marbs in the long run.

Isiah always has an out and can say Marbs does not fit in the long range plans and make larry look bad.

As I said, its up to ATL to blow us away.

I have a question. As long as we're under the cap with Marbury we can throw any amount of money at the lebrons, bosh, wade, Yao's of the world right? As long as you're under the cap right? But we won't be because we're going to use the expiring contracts and be in cap hell and not win for another 30yrs.

Well then! If thepoint is to keep a buzz and sell tix, and never take the pain to do it right, then we go to brooklyn! There is just so much we can take!

Kevin Garnett is approaching 30, soon he will past his prime and ready to done a knick uniform. Yes, I can see it coming. Gut the team, bring in a false prophet, but hail praise on whome ever does the deal, prance around with our chests out proclaiming our greatness, beat down all those whom question the mother of all Starphuchs as hater, and when in doubt, bench mark a Layden team and ask "wanna go back to that!". Take a sip, and jump on board!

Since I couldn't post this on Friday...

All the NY haters, the Marbs haters, the psychics who are bent on telling us what Larry Brown is thinking (though they don't have a goddamn CLUE), the false rumors are all meant for some journalist to get some light. I guess we're supposed to act like "OH God!" and read the article, then let it taint our minds towards whatever the alleged motives are for the rumor. Please. Then we're supposed to talk about it ad nauseum until we're stuck on stupid. Nope, I won't waste any energy arguing with anyone fool enough to believe this mess.

I put Dan LeRetard in the same category as Chad Fraud, Bitch Lawrence & Skank Arseola- the Knicks Hater / writer group. I just skim thru their articles (if I care to even read their trash at all) for whatever fragments of believeable truth that I can find.

There will be alot of ppl with nothing to say when Marbs continues to prosper here. Then again, nitpickers like this LeRetard character never stop crying.
Another season, and more adversity to persevere through. We will get the job done, even BETTER than last year. GO KNICKS!

stop being negative. the truth can be considered negative in new york

That's the moral of the story.

yes, the "truth" is negative. yet, when some idiot journalist speculates on a trade (while not knowing about the five team trade his own team was involved in - guess his sources missed that one)-- that's considered "truth." This guy has written so many anti-new york articles over the years... hardly trustworthy...

Marbury, Isiah and Larry Brown all have plenty of enemies around the league. Stories like this will pop all season. It's vicious BS.

That only makes me root for the success of our team that much harder,
especially for Isiah, Larry Brown and my main man Stephon. Alot of those haters will eat more than their share of CROW when the time comes.

GO KNICKS!!! The haters don't even matter!

Pontificate on!

I have been a big LB fan since he pulled up and coached for the Carolina Cougers of the ABA! His Denver teams were a bitch and would have done very will in the NBA had they not had to pay a kings ransom to gain entry to the NBA.

Regardless, he is an easy target. HIs longevity and greatness is long written about, but his leaving is so overblown.

Basically its cool to fire coaches, but if a coach leaves before he is fired that is totally not! Larry has always been desired, and he knows that players can only hear a coach and be effective for just a few years. This guy is smart enough to know when to leave before he gets tainted! Sorry, Brilliant!

I don't know how long he will last hear, maybe two years, maybe 6. Maybe he gets real sick and has to back out this year! But he will further the organization.

I also think that its stupid for him to come in and not want to win a championship. And I heard him say we won't contend for three seaons. Thus, making trade recomendations based on makeing things better NOW is selling the effort short. The organization needs to be patient and look at the big picture. I would have to agree with any marbs trade that larry and Isiah deem necessary to acompolish. I believe Marbs will be given a chance to succeed unless someone blows us away with a deal.

If atlanta needs to win now we have some nice temparary pieces to get them on the radar and fill some seats. They have no future wiht no fan base. We got fan base, but typically no future. Now we are working on it, but we can move up that time table. But they got to blow us away!
