It doesnt matter about winning for these idiots,if they can get paid at the end of the day then thats all that matters to them, its bullcrap to see the knicks being handled this way. I feel Marbury needs to go, as well as that really short guy robinson, they are distractions and have bad attitudes, low IQ's. your focus should be your two big men. get them into better shape and you guys will be very dangerous.</p>
</div>You get a pass since you don't follow Knicks basketball. First of all, Marbury does not have a low IQ. In fact, I argue it is quite high - one of the best in the league, actually. Say what you want about not liking Marbury's personality off the court, but in terms of his basketball ability, he is still one of the best at his position. The "attitude" thing is so played out. People argue he has a bad attitude, but he readily handed over the reins to Eddy Curry and told him he was the leader of the team. This was, according to Curry himself, the reason for his breakout season.</p>
As for the big men, Curry lost 20 pounds in the offseason and Randolph is in shape. Crawford added 15 pounds of muscle, Lee has been taking 1,000 shots per day and might play SF, and Marbury is in the best shape of his life.</p>
