Actually, this trade would be excellent. A versatile power foward who has some good quicks and isn't what you could call dumb. Harrington, when motivated, plays with a stunning hustle. A hustle comparable to JYD, but the only difference is that Al can really play. Harrington brings some intensity, he brings a brain and pure hustle along with good team play. Watching him come off the bench in Indiana was a joy for me, Al Harrington is and has been one of my favorite players. To see one of my least favorite players traded for one of my favorites sounds just great to me. This takes pressure off of Sweetney (though eventually he'll need some), and Frye. If he plays in New York in a similar manner to how he played in Indiana he'll be a great acquisition. Isiah was close to him in Indiana so I could absolutely see this trade goind down.

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Terminator-X:</div><div class="quote_post">marbury is not a fast break player???
guess u never seen him running tings at 155th every year
its the knicks crappy system thats cramping his game now</div>
Is this some sort of joke? Marbury is quite a weak full court player, that's insane. Think about what you just posted. Please.
j0se is absolutely correct, Marbury is sub-par in the front court.
This trade enables Crawford to assume the point guard role, where he belongs. It gives Nate a better chance to develop, and Crawford will basically be told by Isiah to teach Nate a thing or two about dribbling and controling the basketball.
This trade is damn near ideal.
Do it, Isiah!
