Reporter: Isiah you seem to fleece countless teams out of their best player. You are doing some serious pimpin'

Isiah: What can I say, bro? I can't call it.

Once again, we get the best player in a trade. So why don't I fell good about this? Isiah needs to ask himself why are these other teams willing to dump these players (Craw, Mar, Franchise, Curry) on our laps for nothing?


Isiah seems to be repeating the same mistake over and over. First, he got Crawful, to be our future 2g for expiring contracts. Then the next summer, he trades for QRich who is also a 2g. Was getting Qrich adimitting his mistake for picking up Craw the previous summer.

Now, he trades for Francis, only 50 games after bringing Q here. So was getting Francis admitting he made a mistake for aquiring Q?

Was trading for Jalen and that pick admitting he made a mistake by not protecting the pick in the Curry deal?

Isiah was my favorite player growing up, and when he got the job here, I was rooting hard for him. But I'm losing faith with each passing trading deadline. It seems as if he's more concerned with collecting a bunch of individual talents as apposed to trying to build an actual team that can compliment each other.

Reporter: your backcourt now includes Marbury Francis Crawford Q and Nate Robinson. Is the league switching to a 2 ball system?

no, i think he envisioned a steph-qrich-jc guard rotation at the time.

no, you dont pass up allstar talent for free when you dont care about payroll.

Basically, Knicks paid 34 million for a mid first round draft pick. JRose will have zero impact on the future of this team. And Isiah seemed to make it clear, that the trading of AD for Rose doesn;t take place without the pick being included. So it was all about the pick.

Yopu pass up allstar talent if it makes no sense for the chemistry and make-up of this team.

But obviously, there is no plan, no chemistry and no identity, so I guess getting Franchise, without moving someone from the overcrowded backcourt makes sense the clueless Knicks.

Franchise is obviously 2x's better than Crawful, but it makes no sense to add Franchise without moving CRaw or Q or Marbury from the backcourt. This just confuses things more than they already are. Whats Craw to think now? Franchise is the type of talent that will comand 30 plus minutes. Craw and Q are making too much money to be getting 15 mins a night.

The other problem is its gonna be hard to move them. Craw makes too much money and there aren't many takers out there for him. Q can't get his back insured which seems to be scaring teams off. And most good GM's don't trade bigs for smalls.
