Marbs needs to have his fun now, cuz when big chief triange blows into town, marbs gonna get religion!
He gonna hear "mike did this, mike did that" from both phil and Isiah!
I got phils book to bone up on the dudes thinking.
Im getting ready, phil and the ghost or Red Holzman gonna fix Marbs up good.
Nalod, seriously does Phil install the triangle here? Does Marbs take the MJ/Kobe role? It's almost too much to even fathom. And maybe more importantly, can Zeke stand for one second to hear good things said about his old nemesis MJ?? Plus just imagine for a second the books he's gonna assign to our Knicks (All right, one is easy - Sweets gets Atkins).
I am still working on it, and still have not quite figured out all the Triangle details. MJ was not complete until he trusted Pip. Really, no Pip and MJ is just another great player! Who would think a core of two with very very good support could do what they did?
If Kobe was not such a prick, the lakes would 5-pete! The triange is versitle. It worked with 2 wings as the core best players, and with a wing and a Shaq! Marbs will only be as good as the support he gets, thats true under any circumstances! I guess what we don't see is what Isiah can turn over and draft with the roster, and how much can Reezy develope into? All we know, Reezy may be the key, and Phil might think how wonderful to get a smart humble kid and mold him early? Can he break in Marbs to a lessor role to acomplish a greater task? Draft a center and we might have an early core. This is what is so appealing about bringing in phil! Not his reputation, but how can they build it from the ground up and install the system! I think Jamal could have a big problem adjusting, but he might excell in the end! Marbs could not stand up to Phil, no way he sulks! Phil would give him the zen. If not, Marbs goes. That simple!
