Mutiny Against Larry Brown

[Really Lost One]

<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">One by one the players filed into Larry Brown's office last Thursday before conducting their final exit interviews behind closed doors with Isiah Thomas. The arrangement seemed odd, especially when in previous years the general manager, the head coach and even Garden chairman James Dolan sat together when addressing the players individually.

If Thomas was looking for brutal honesty, he got it.

<font color=""Red"">According to two player agents with clients on the Knicks, the players staged a palace coup in front of Thomas, the Knicks' president. Players never blame themselves, even after finishing with a 23-59 record. And they weren't about to cast aspersions on the man responsible for bringing them to New York.</font>

<font color=""red"">Instead, approximately eight of the Knicks' 15 players blamed Brown for arguably the worst season in franchise history. The most common complaints were Brown's failure to define roles and his penchant for publicly criticizing his players.</font>

<font color=""red"">"The Knicks are going to have to make changes because there is no way Larry can walk into the locker room with this same group," says one source. "He lost a lot of those guys and he's not going to win them back."</font>

Brown could not have been surprised by the feedback Thomas was getting from the players. <font color=""blue"">Two weeks earlier, Brown admitted that several Knicks had tuned him out long ago, and said that the season had been reduced to "begging guys to play." </font>

7. Nate Robinson
8. Eddie Curry

I don't think Jalen Rose is complaining. He's usually pretty professional.

 

[Shapecity]

QRich has supported Brown all season. I also think Crawford has bought into Brown's system.

These would be my 8.

#1 - Starbury
#2 - Curry
#3 - M. Rose
#4 - Mo Taylor
#5 - James
#6 - Qyntel Woods
#7 - Nate Robinson
#8 - Steve Francis

 

[Tribute to H2O]

I think Crawford and Richardson has bought into what Larry Brown is trying to teach the team. Jalen Rose has always been pretty professional as far as I know. And I cant imagine Malik Rose causing any coach any problem. These are the lost guys in my opinion in order of most lost to not so lost.

1.Stephon Marbury(the ringleader)
2.Steve Francis
3.Eddy Curry
4.Jerome James
5.Maurice Taylor
6.Nate Robinson
7.Qyntel Woods

I'd also like to add that every single one of these chumps needs to be shipped out pronto!

Anyway I think Isiah Thomas should be fired.

 

[marcelonbraga]

I?ve never been so agree
This guys have to be removed from the team if the knicks want to win again, specially marbury

 

[Jurassic]

Steve Francis wasn't there long enough to have a right to complain. Nate should just be happy that Larry Brown is playing him as a rookie.

I really dont blame larry brown, if anything Isiah is the one to blame for gettting too many players that all want the ball and have that shoot first pass later mentality

Yes he is pro, at least from what we've seen at Toronto.
