This is just crazy. Guys have to be more professional than this. If IT benches you, then you don't have to like it, but you are paid 20 mil to do what the hell the coach says. You suck it up and play harder and try to win your spot back. You don't have a tantrum like a little child. This just pisses me off.

I really dont see this being true, can we have a link to like a newspaper or a sports website.

Not some guy on realgm

FWIW, BlackBishop knows an MSG employee who hears stuff. He's been right several times in the past.

How much is really in dispute anyway. We know there was a fight and that Marbury fled. All that's in question is if he told Isiah he has dirt on him.

After the last loss can pretty much sense something coming from this. Marbury made some bad decisions in the last 2 minutes of the Miami game the same mistakes he has been making for the 12 years in the league. I think Isiah just said this Mofo is making the same mistakes since he started he is never gonna learn. Hence the benching.

Marbury being the Starbury he thinks he is not gonna for shyt like that, you know he got sneakers to sell and being on the bench hurts his street cred. Isiah finally woke up and I think Dolan had a lot to do with this decision coming down. All the BS of the trial that Marbury pulled this was coming and we all knew it was just a matter of time.

We're never gonna get the whole truth on this, so no reason to worry much about it. You can be sure there was some altercation for it to get to this point.

No, but I also didn't think it would come to *this*! You gotta admit, you wouldn't have predicted a fist fight!

first off, we don't know anything other than the fact that Marbury left the team & went back to NY after hearing about his benching... second, after this summer when Marbury showed us all how off his freakin' rocker he really was, nothing ever surprises me anymore when it comes to him, except of course when he handles things in a professional manner, which is pretty much never.

I'll have to get some verification before i believe this one. If it's true that really is a bad situation. I just want this organization to get straightened out and back to BB. All this side drama is for the birds. Steph is in the wrong IMO. As a player you have to know that you aren't exempt from being demoted if you're performance isn't up to snuff. How you fix that is by playing better. Having a temper tantrum and leaving the team isn't how you handle things.

Wait, it says "full on brawl." I wouldn't read that too literally. I'd assume that to mean it went from being a quiet discussion to something louder and more animated.

Thats BS we all know he didn't fled, and there isn't any sourcable link that says this happen.

i dont care if he was right in the past but if he aint got no link he aint got ish.

It wouldn't really surprise me if this were true. Really, with the turmoil this team is going trough, anything can happen.

Ahh, when will we get rid of Isiah and trade many of his errors away?

I want Marb out as much as anyone. but it seems as if we/Knicks are making him out to be the scape goat. Marb wasn;t the only one throwing the ball around like a hot-potato down the stretch. Craw had a bad turnover as did Balk down the stretch.

Our defense is bad all across the board. Marb being singled out takes some of the spot-light off of Isiah for a while. Replacing Marb for Mardy is not an upgrade. Defensively, yes, but overall, Marb has had a couple of good assist games and has been pretty unselfish. Not to mention he's been hiting his outside shout of late.

Again, this is a move by Isiah to buy some time it seems.

I don't think its Marbury being made a scape goat. Its isiah the coach trying to find a combo of players that balance out defense and offense.

If isiah wants to send a message, Mr. Marbury is paid $20MM to listen and like it. He should ask isiah, how far should I bend over, sir.

I didn't like the way LB handled the infinite rotations.

This might be very different if we had someone like a marcus camby to erase mistakes- he'd probably average 8 blacks a game with our wing players.

So Marbury is the scapegoat because Isiah has decided not to start him because of his putrid defense? Please.
