From "TheKnicksBlog Written by my boy Isa Kaliq Moorman of nykfanpage.com"http:// there is some diatribe on Toney Douglas' early years. And some that is mystifying. Some seem chosen to reach particular ears. Auburn and Marbury come to mind. Jeff Leto I'm sure.

The tone reminds me basketball may be a game and a dream but it's also a scaled war. I've watched Douglas play every televised game last year(20+?) He's a warrior.

I enjoyed the article until the last sentence. The writer had already made his point.

So, basically the article is saying Auburn did Douglass wrong, then razzes them a bit about it. Is that what you guys don't like about the article?

It also seems to be saying he is not Marbury. You disagree?

I don't disagree...just consider that any allusion/comparison to Marbs is bound to stir bad karma somewhere. He's history why even mention him. And the whole Ass and Auburn sentence is just really over the top.

Marb's and even Auburn may have the hearts of some Knicks fans. Why alienate these people? Just win them over on the court.

good point. steph always showed up to camp fit and ready to play, his effort on the court was always there. his final days as a knick was dramarama, but im not going to define his tenure in orange and blue by that.
