After so many years of wishing for a true point guard and a native new yorker at that, are you guys willing to trade Marbury for let say an impact player?

Why should we trade him? out of 82 games, he only played in 45 as a Knick. Don't you think that he needs at least a year with a good supporting cast before judging him???

Just a question.I always liked him since the 1st time i saw him play,and hell yeah if he had the supporting cast,he'd would flourish with a full season under his belt...But what if we can get Kobe for Steph and other players? will you pull the trigger if you the G.M.? I would...

I wouldn't do it. Steph is a New Yorker. Develop a little loyalty for your own kind.

So you wouldn't trade Marbury for lebron James cause he is not from N.Y.and Steph is? What kind bull **** is that? thats the most ignorant BS I've read in a long time...

He's been my fav. player since I was in 6th grade watching him lead Lincoln to his first city championship.

For Kobe I'd do it. LA isn't trading Shaq. Stef's my fav. player, but to get Kobe, I don't think you can turn that down.

After this championship run Shaq will have nothing to look forward to unless he is heading east. Shaq would be the most dominating force in the easy east. What the heck, if he takes NY championship his MVP cannot be denied, and he will be considered the greatest center ever....yup, MVPs & championships in both conferences....WOW!

We always knew Ewing's replacement had to be equal or better for NY to go championship. Why settle for less, anything else is a compromise. Can you imagine a team stating to go championship as a season goal?...I almost forgot, the cliche is rebuilding

Yankee fans did'nt feel rejected adding Mr. October or the Rocket to their World Series championships

Then why don't you save yourself some time right now and just root for the Lakers?

You can't compare basketball to baseball, Shaq or Kobe single handedly change a team. ONE player on a BASEBALL ROSTER does not change a team as much as ONE BASKETBALL PLAYER ON A BASKETBALL TEAM. Whether you have Clemens, Boggs or Jackson on the Yankees they are still the Yankees. Would winning with Kobe or Shaq REALLY be that satisfying to you? If yes, then you just think differently then I do. It's called lack of loyalty and is a classic example of classic bandwagon jumping.
I must assume then that you wouldn't mind winning a championship with Reggie Miller, Mourning, Kidd, K.Martin, TimHardaway, Collins, PJBrown. And yes Kobe and Shaq are not really Knicks killers, but I always assumed a prerequisite for being a Knicks fan was hating those 2 ****s.
And just to let YOU know, I wasn't trying to single YOU out, cause I've read that a few people on this MSG BOARD wouldn't mind having Kobe. I was addressing everyone as a whole.

WTF do you know about NYC pride...loser

Apparently not much... I've only lived here for the past 24 years.

So I ask the question again? If you have the chance to get let say Lebron or Garnet or duncan or Carmelo or Mcgrady for steph you wouldn't do it? dont tell me about pride I'd been rooting for NY for 30 years thru good and bad. believe me there been more bad than good.

I would pull the trigger in a second on any of those deals as long as we keep FWill to man the point.

My above point being said... I DO agree I'd still do any of the above deals -- just don't think it will take us to the championship.
You need at least 2 stars, and unless Hou comes back full or IT is a
wizard, we ain't got the power, or the money to do it.

Simple answer, no. Steph will be a Knickebocker for a long time.
