Marbury may miss two months

By BRIAN LEWIS

Stephon Marbury , who sat out Sunday

[KnicksGadfly]

>.> now he's really untradeable huh

[cmaff051]

Hopefully he needs surgery and then we can just buy him out.

[VinnyTheMick]

Just like Francis was considering medical retirement, right?

[blueNorange]

There goes Derrick Rose.

[knicks742]

There goes Derrick Rose.

Nah. We still have Zach and Eddy.

[truth serum]

Yes, please just buy him out Jimmy.

[king_k4life]

YES YES YES


That means we can't trade him for a Mcgrady and hence stay on this path !!!

Yeah but now Nate gets more playing time.

kinda makes you think then, huh? If Zeke and them didnt see anything wrong with crome dome, and all of a sudden he has an injury that will sit him out for 2 months... After all the time he missed? Almost seems to me like he was told he might get traded, or will get traded and dude then decides he needs surgery? That would make him untradeable, right? Hmm

Like he's trying to stick it to Isiah one last time

[truth serum]

^That actually makes sense. Leave it to Slybury.

As grimey and typical as that is of Marbs....if it's true that he's trying to screw over Zeke and make himself untradeable....then I'll thank him for this one. Hey, maybe he's just looking out for the Knicks cap space.

[moody]

can't we trade him - get mcgrady and let houston buy him out. we don't want to let him leave w/o getting something of value if we can do so. there are always teams looking to take on contracts that they can get rid of. somebody took francis didn't they?

[knicks742]

Agreed but the thing is that the guys that we like, although they will try hard, they are just not good enough to win consistently. Plus it's a lottery so who knows.

Games will be more enjoyable but we still will lose most of them.

[I_Love_NYK]

Didn't Crawford had the same injury last year?

[NYKAL]

No you don't buy him out. We are better off with him out for the season. Next year his contract can bring in someone very attractive. That is if you believe IT will be gone and that we will have a true coach and GM

[SoCalKnickFan]

So I guess he couldn't make it to the game last night and sit on the bench w those spurs? Just BS, he's already quit on this team when he left Phoenix.
The team plays better without him. I'll be surprised to see him play another game in a Knick Uni. You can tell Isiah's fuming, Marbs and him are done w each other, Marbs is not gonna do anything to help Isiah keep his job. He's ready to shut it down for the season while he collects his $20Mill. He's like a child, really. All that recent shyt about he can't play his game? What frickin game, the one where he dominates the ball, get's his stats, and we lose by 20? Expect a continued trickle of Marbs version of the Knicks problems as brought to you by his butt buddy, Mitch Lawrence. Please Penny the guy and let's move forward. One of the great waste of talents who never figured out how to make anyone better around him. Sad!

[YungNeef]

If it been bothering him for a while, why the hell he wait until now to get it taken care of....

[Knick 4ever]

Marbury is just trying to get even with Isiah. He knows that Isiah is a piece of shyt that really only cares about himself, why not stick it to him? I think the incident involving his father's death is the reason why Marbury is acting like he is right now. I don't fault him. We are bad with or without him him any freaking way.

It is time to blow this entire team up. Let go of everyone in the front office and all the free agents Isiah acquired as well. Bring in fresh blood to start a new legacy. Hire some old Knicks who actually know what it takes to win championships in a city like ours. Willis Reed has front office experience; promote Frazier to work the front office instead of being a t.v. commentator, bring back Patrick and take it from there.
