Stop the Chemotherapy because there is no hope. There is a lack of leadership.
Remember that Portland had the same problems 3-4 years ago. They traded or bought out the troublemakers and started to build a new team with young and talented players. The question is: Is this also possible in NY? I don`t think so because NY started a rebuild with Isiah and it did`nt and does`nt work.
We have to face the truth: The current season is done for the Knicks.
Leadership starts at the PG and his backcourt SG partner.
They establish the coach system, game-plan, and role-play for teammates (Marbury JOB).
We never should have had Marbury on this Knick Team in the first place, his tenor with the Nets & Suns made him another Phoenix Retired Player next to Chambers & Penny Hardaway (who was the G.M. in Phoenix that got these three players?).
Isiah Thomas first Month as the Knick G.M. trading for Norris, Penny, and Marbury to become the Knicks backcourt Guards automatically said Three Big Blunders of uncoachable players.
Do you think Isiah stopped their with the UN-COACH-ABLE Players, No! he signs Baker, and trade for Tim Thomas, two more uncoachable-players.
With more UNCOACHABLE PLAYERS on the way like Crawford, Taylor, Q.Rich, James, Curry, Jalen, Francis, and now Zach Randolph.
Do you know what happens when you put one uncoachable player with other uncoachable players you get a 33, 23, and another 33 WIN season in 3 years.
This seasons 2-9 Start look like another 23 WIN season when you do the math.
I dont know, but the Isiah Thomas that we have here in New York does not seem the same as the Isiah Thomas that Coached the Indiana Pacers.
The Pacers always had coachable players when Reggie Miller was on the team.
The Indiana Pacer Coach Zeke did not play the money contract players on the Pacers if they were not stepping up to their game with teammates and playing team defense.
In New York, G.M. Isiah & Coach Isiah has been playing money contract players no matter how many repeated bad performances they give out. And I dont mean game after game bad performances, I mean season after season terrible performances.
Now the above seem bad, but it is not as bad as G.M. Isiah Thomas comming down and interupting Coach Chaney Practice by taking PG-Marbury to another side of the court and running plays with him for hours when Coach Chaney had a good Defensive System that he was trying to instill in Marbury with his teammates.
When G.M. Isiah Thomas FIRED Coach Chaney this Knick Team has not had a "SYSTEM" or a "Game-Plan" since the departure of Coach Chaney.
It's been 3 and half seasons with 4 different coaches and NO System for these Knick Players to play to or try to understand.
Now that's BAD...
