anther lost this time vs the clippers leaves the knicks only .5 games behind the raptors for the Tiantic Division bottom. Forget the games, just time to listen to the news the next 20 days or so and see what major change is coming up.

note-
january 2005 was the worst month ever for the knicks in thir 59 year history finishing 2-13

Isiah Thomas had an interesting take on the situation during the Cavs/Knicks game last week. His basic point was that the best players in the league are aware of how good they are and probably all rank themselves #1 at their position - Marbury just came out and voiced his opinion of himself.

I'm a Knick fan and there's no way I could believe he's the best point guard in the league.

He's not even the best point guard in the area.

While Mabury runs his mouth, Jason Kidd prooves he is. Nets have won four straight.

I wouldn't even put him in the top ten at this point.

lmao now thats f'ed up. isiah thomas ditching the knicks. What happened to his plans. He can't just leave the knicks like that. Then again it may not be a bad time since the knicks got cap space coming up and playing with it and possibly messing up things more might not be good..

but personally, i think it's just the media over hyping this open position

Pat Riley is NOT leaving Miami- his team basically to go to LA.

Larry Brown...didn't he recently state he doesn't have plans to leave
Detriot? I don't get all these Brown rumors of him wanting to leave Detriot to coach anther team. That's back stabbing, and it's a bad idea to backstab on a team that contains Rasheed Wallace..

Phil Jackson...well, i think his name is popping up because he is free..

In today's papers, Isiah said he's here for the long haul. I know folks are giving him a hard time, but really, the Knics biggest problem can be summed up in two words:

JIM DOLAN

Like WFAN's Joe Beningo always said, Knicks are going nowhere with Dolan & Cablevision calling the shots. I think Isiah's realizing how bad upper management is at the Garden.

very dishearten lost to the kings..but bibby point on a great performanceas him and his 40points helped beat the knicks with "the best point guard" scoring 37
they close to the bottom of the eastern conference, only bucks are beow them right now! ( hawks and bobcats aren't nba teams )

They better not win some more games an finish 9th in the East.
Right now all I want for them is to get a high pick and draft a good senior from college (at least no HS-er)

Ditto...

The Knicks do need an overhaul, but i like the moves isiah has done. Give me Marbury, Houston, Crawford, Tim Thomas, Mohammed and Kurt Thomas over Houston, Ward, Eisley, Anderson, Kurt Thomas and KVH anyday. New York realistically needs one legitimate goto big man and they should be really ready to compete in the east. Maybe Thomas will strike gold in a tyson chandler or kwame brown like the pacers did with jermaine oneal.

Matt, they also need guys who WANT to play consistent defense night after night(like the Holtzman & Riley/Van Gundy Knicks).

How about a Chris Taft or Hakeem Warrick. I think they could do the job in the post. They just need a little more meat on them.

Stupid Knicks, shiiiit. 14-28 from the FT line, and outscored 9-1 in the last 48 seconds. :evil: :x

Absolutely jeff, great point. But I dont think they need to bring in many players for that. A strong minded coach can preach that into them, like JVG and Pat Riley did. However a ron artest wouldnt hurt new york in the slightest... and to think grunfeild passed on ron ron and drafted weis :wall:

well, marbury continues his 30+pts a game streak but knicks lost a heart breaker tonight vs the 76ers after a lucky win vs. the bobcats.

I think it's officially time to call it a year for the knicks unless some major change happens
( example- spree for tim thomas would be nice..maybe dolan will see he made a mistake!)

Amp, the more the Knicks lose, the better off they are in the long run. Let's get a high-end draft pick, and some young boys who can play.

And ship Tim Thomas' ass OUTTA here. Sucker will never fufill his potential.

i guess you have a point. I have the YES network so I can watch some good ball going on in NJ in the mean time ;)
but this kinda sucks for marbury, he continues to be a "loser."

man- some tough losses for the knicks. they've lost a lot of close ones. i read in the chicago trib that tim thomas's game winner against the bobs... tim thomas shrugged his shoulders after that shot, thinking he missed it when the ball the first hit the rim. this true??
