Apparently Isiah is stupified that Marbury says he didn't learn anything from his benching. To be honest, I don't have a clue as to what he was supposed to learn from that dog and pony show.

What do you think Isiah was trying to teach Marbury by benching him?

He learned that there truly is nothing good on TV, so he went back to playing for the Knicks.

Taught him that the individual player is beyond the team, b/c the team wanted Marbury in a suit and tie against the Clippers, and Isiah put Marbury ahead of the team, even though Marbury dissed the team AND has been playing like crap. Makes me want to puke the more I think of it.

Isiah has won in spite of the mightiest opponents: Magic, Kareem, Bird, Jordan.

But he's no match for Steph. Steph will destroy him as he has so many mighty before.

Steph learned that he runs the franchise. But he already knew that. It's factorial

i dunno if Marbury learned anything, but for Isiah's part, at least he learned that threatening a player w/less playing time is a lot more effective if they don't have any incriminating evidence against you.
