there is one difference between Larry and his players. Larry has won at every stop he's been at. He's never had a losing record for any team he's coached. The flip side? JJ, Marbury, Franchise, Q, Mo T, Crawford, Curry, my god, every single veteran player except Malik is a career loser in the NBA. Thats mind boggling. And we have the highest payroll in the NBA. These are the stars Isiah has brought us.
