a friend of mine emailed this to me and was curious to see what the ultimateknicks crew thinks about it...
One constant theme that goes unnoticed or for that matter, VERY NOTICED....STEPHON MARBURY IS THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS STARTED EVERY GAME THIS SEASON! every possible combo has been used with ALL OF OUR TEAM around him. WHAT DOES THAT SAY? he does not fit with anyone on the team. I know this is may "diminish trade value" but if I were LB, I would say "Steph has the flu" and will be sidelined for the next game. Let's see what happens. His trade value is diminishing with every scowl on his face during every quarter of the games we played. LB has experimented with everything- lets experiment again- SIT MARBS vs Atlanta. We are losing anyhow, we may as well see what its like sans Steph. And he doesnt deserve to have his illustrious "games started" streak anymore...why should he be rewarded because he may start but we don't win.

JC
Q
Ariza
Frye
Curry

Nate
Lee
Butler
Woods

Foul trouble spot up minutes: Mo and Malik, maybe JJ if not gone before.

NINE MAN ROTATION W/O OUR "SUPERSTAR." JUST DO IT, LB! Many stars get benched for injury or illness. People say he has the flu anyway, I think he is contagious- so I think Marbury may be making the rest of our team sick too:)

could we start Penny instead of Ariza? Ariza needs to come off the bench. He shouldn't be on the floor with our best players because he hurts their chances to score

dj, I like the "my friend is suggesting this not me" strategy--keeps you out of trouble.

it seems like ariza's offense is actually improving, i agree with the proposed starting lineup execpt i think curry should come off of the bench. I dont like the way he plays, and theres enough offense with frye.

I think that counts as a technical foul

I think Marbury is a big part of the problem. Maybe he should take a leave of absence.

Guys, theres just no way that we can sit a player making 20 milliond dollars a year still in his prime. You either trade him or play him, thats it.

Ummm...for a game? Before they trade him, they should sit him at least one game to see what life without Marbs could be like.

people have talked about Marbury not fully implementing the brown game plan- if that were the case, put him on the inactive, tell him not to dress and to think about how hard he is willing to play. If he says something, suspend him for conduct unbecoming and dock his pay! So, yes.

In fact, maybe it is the money that's the issue- he isn't inspired to work or try hard. He has no need. He could probably retire today and never have to worry about feeding his kids...
