Marbury is definitely a better PG than Frankie right now. But don't say that Williams can't set guys for open shots, in the four games that Williams started the Knicks were scoring over 100 points a game for fun. If you saw any of those games, you would've saw that the Knicks got open shots the whole game from Frankie. He has potential to be a very good PG in the league.

ok.... if the knicks dont trade either of them in the future... then marbury will most likely be around for the same amount of time williams will be, i dont see frank ever taking marburys starting position... remember... marbury is only 26, i was wrong saying williams cant set up open shots, but he has more of a scoring mantality, where as from what i've seen from marbury so far, he likes to pass the rock

Of course Frank will never take Marbury's starting position. Isiah just made probably the biggest trade in Knicks history, how bad would that look if they then decided to start Frankie over Marbury? Marbury was acquired to be our "franchise player," which makes him the only untouchable on this team. Frankie might become a very good PG but he won't be as good as Marbury, even if he did become as good he would never start on this team because of what I mentioned before about Marbury being our cornerstone. Frankie has more value to us as trade bait than as a backup PG.

I don't think Williams' trade value is high enough ... so I'd rather let him play 20 mins a game as back-up point and shooting guard, prove himself a bit more, and trade him in the offseason, assuming the demand goes up.

He's a young guy who probably is capable of being a starter on many teams (though that still needs to be proven). We'd be much better off someone with his level of talent and upside in the frontcourt.

I have never heard anyone say that.

btw, Williams was great at the pick and roll against Memphis.

dude, you must be on crack. it's obvious that you haven't been watching knicks basketball this season otherwise you would have known who frankie really is! a playmaker, baller, scorer (when he please), main thing of all, passer, makes the knicks a better team. he might not get the stats that marbury does but he sure gets their offense and deffense going. if you had watched what he does every time he's in the ball game, you would never make these statements. as far as getting better stats than marbury, i could careless because i'm a knicks fan whose favorite player on the team is frank.

question about Frank Williams contract.... when i look at the player salaries on this site, I see Frank Williams got an extension because he had 4 more years on contract with the knicks...

Is this an error? I dont remember hearing anything about the extension, maybe im wrong or it was a low profile thing.... plz reply someone... danx

I don't follow you. FWill is in the second year of his standard 5 year rookie contract. Fourth year is team option year.
