He said Steph apologized to him about his ability to contain Tony Parker, and LB said it was not his fault. He said the bigs have got to help out better than they have been and play their part. He said 'we've gotta get Steph some help.'

I think Steph is keepable (is that a word?) if LB finds his PG and moves Marbs to SG.
DLee is the best thing to happen to NY in Isiah's 4 year tenure. And that alone, though a positive on the radar, is sad as hell.

Marbury is not good at playing off the ball. The ball will wind up in Marbs hands anyway.

This is just a crazy situation. Marbs is a very good player. Anyway you look at it someone has to go. If it's not Marbs it's Craw.

I really want Earl Watson. If the Knicks get him I will be ok.

It's not about playing "off the ball". It's about not dominating the ball. If Steph is curling off picks or getting opportunities to stretch the defense on the wing, then our team will be better off than if he's not just holding the ball and instead getting the most out of his talents.....which is scoring, plain and simple.

Ever since that GS game I've been convinced of that.

Well at least now others are starting to realize that on the defensive end, Steph hasn't been totally to blame for the way we get beat. When the guard gets picked our big has to step up to impede the drive of their PG. We haven't been getting that on a consistent basis.

Offensively Steph is not doing as bad as it may appear. The thing is, who is really holding up their end of the bargain offensively. If Steph makes a pass who really is dependable enough to score the ball or make the next pass without turning it over? Right now almost no one, except Frye. JC is next on that list. This is why I want him back in the Starting lineup and playing mroe minutes. It would also help to have JC be a bigger part of the offensive attack. Right now JC, Frye and Steph are the best players production and execution wise. Add a healthy Curry and I think in time that group would be able to do quite well.
