Blow it the F*CK up! Official Trade Thread

Marbury's assists are down for three reasons. First Isiah is a terrible basketball coach who has no idea how to utilize talent. Second a lot of the time Marbury isn't even bringing the ball up the court. Lastly and more importantly his teammates are all one on one players who have no clue how to move without the ball. Assists are created not only by a player breaking down the defense but by his teammates moving to open spots on the floor for quality shots. Marbury's teammates do not move unless they have the ball and thus his assist totals are down.
 
Isiah runs an isolation offense. When Wilkens was here we were using the pick and roll and set plays more often which led to .500 basketball.

But you're right, Marbury hasn't had a good season so I can't really defend him much as I would like. But I'm glad we all understand the flaws and strengths of this team.

Ray is just a REALLY strong dude. You saw that punch he landed out of no where on Jorge? Jorge didn't even see it coming and he fell straight on his ass.

But Jorge had too much technique and basic boxing skills to lose. He was hitting Ray with accurate punches and kept his stance and stook with his gameplan of countering.

The guy you saw is Kimbo...he's a monster.

Knicklover can you read? I said Marburys prime was last year and I admitted his shooting percenteges were not as good as they once were but his 3pt shooting percentages are better then ever. The main thing I wanna see him get credit for is his offense, defense, and team play last year from January to early April when he got hurt. There has been several arguements that I have made backed up by facts that you havent answered.

Im gonna do the math and figure out the average points allowed month by month that the Knicks as a team allowed. I have said several times throughout the arguement that Marbury started to play THE BEST BASKETBALL OF HIS CAREER IN JANUARY OF 2007. Lets see if my stats back this up.

I said that he picked up his defense in January and was Starbury until he got injured early in April.

Nov. and Dec.=103.3 points allowed per game
Jan. Feb. and March=98.7 points allowed per game

This isnt much of a suprise to me, after WATCHING the Knicks last year I knew that their defense picked it up in January when Marbury began shuttin down point guards in shooting guards. Everytime I bring up the fact that you dont watch the Knicks you have nothing to say.

I know you have problems reading so I just wanna make something I have listed above easier for you to read.

Knicks points allowed month by month
November=102.1
December=104.6
January=101.9
February=99.4
March=94.6
April=99.7

Marburys declining Assists? Lets take a look at the Knicks starting lineup:

Crawford-41mpg, 40.7fg%, 33% 3P, 2.73 TO
Richardson-29mpg, 31.1fg%, 28.7% 3P, 6.6pts
Randolph-32.5mpg, 3.13 TO
Curry-28.1mpg, 2.21TO, 14.9ppg

Besides Nate Robinson, theres isnt any scorers on the bench. I dont think its neccessary for me to put up the stats of Jared Jeffries, Malik Rose, and Fred Jones.

You call this a F*ckin team? Its Bullsh*t that Asshole fans like you callin out Marbury for not bein a good leader, look at the pieces of shit that hes playin with. You dont know how to read either, you have lost this arguement 10 times already.

"If you point out that the best PGs around the league are almost always great team leaders that tend to accent other players strengths and make them better (something Marbury has never been able to do - even at his best). They won't accept it (or don't understand it) because it's an intangible quality. It just happens to be a quality that's extremely important for a PG."

Hey dicklover, if you re-read everything you wouldnt be saying stupid things like this. Metro said this earlier in the thread but since you cant read:



I want you to go back to the 5th page of this thread and re-read everything. Then you would see how badly you have gotten destroyed time and time again. You have lost every debate, lets recap:



I dont think Ive seen anyone ever lose the way you lost and you keep comin back settin the Deboe up for me, you make it too easy. You cant win an arguement against someone who actually watches the Knicks, I dont respect anything you said at any point and I proved your weak opinions and misleading stats wrong. What more do you want?

The problem with your stats is that they are TEAM stats. You are giving Marbury all the credit for the improvement in the number of points allowed by the TEAM when it could easily be a multitude of factors.

For example:

I'm sure you know enough about stats to know that all a team has to do is slow down it's offense and it can produce BETTER LOOKING defensive stats. In fact, that's often a strategy employed by teams just to keep a game close. However that says nothing about the team's defense. The team is just giving the opponent less possessions and chances to score. The defense could still suck. What you may want to look at is what percentage of time that the opponent has the ball do they score.

There are dozens of reasons the numbers could look the way they do that have nothing to do with Marbury (except in your head).

NOW PLEASE READ THE NEXT PARAGRAPH CAREFULLY.

What you would need to do to determine this kind of thing are HIGH QUALITY STATS that reflect the performance of the team WITH Marbury on the court and WITHOUT Marbury on the court that are adjusted for the quality of players on the court at any given time. That way you could isolate MARBURY'S contribution to the defense. Everything else is pretty much a huge smelly pile of crap.

YOUR NUMBERS MAY IMPRESS PEOPLE THAT DON'T UNDERSTAND STATISTICS, but they don't impress me or anyone that does understand STATISTICS.

That's why I keep strongly recommending that you look at the 82games stats and web site. The stats there are compiled by a brilliant statistican that understands how to adjust RAW numbers for all the things that mislead amateur stat guys like us.

If you don't want to learn something new, so be it.

I am just trying to help you. You can learn a lot about the game by looking at the work of someone who happens to be exceptionally brilliant with numbers like the guy at 82games. There is a reason he was hired by an NBA team.

Can we please put this to rest?

I have no desire to debate you. I am trying to open your eyes to extremely high quality information that just happens to suggest you are wrong.

This has already been put to rest but that 82games.com does not have high quality stats, there are several ways to easily prove those stats wrong. That 82game.coms' stats are very overrated and Ive been lookin for a better website but no matter how you break it down its very tough, maybe impossible to find accurate defensive statistics. I dont know if there is such thing as valid statistics because some teams will run the pick and roll all night to create mismatches.

I had no idea that my stats would back up what Ive been sayin but they did. Theres almost a 5 point difference from Nov and Dec to Jan, Feb, and March. Maybe Balkman getting more minutes was part of this but I think part of it was definitly because of Starbury.

Its very odd for anyone to talk about Marbury having his best year last year but alot of people who watched say this. Im not the only one on here saying this. Yes his assists were down and his fg% was down a little bit but his 3P% was up and his defense was better then ever. And remember, Im not talkin about this year.

The next thing I need to do (I'll save this for another arguement) is figure out his ppg, apg, 3p%, fg%, and tpg during this stretch from the beginning of January to early April. I hope you are ready to give this up because Id rather save these stats for another time, Lets get back to proposing trades, that is what this thread is suppose to be about. It was a long and great debate and Im sorry for the personal insults but this is over.

I agree with you Oakley, Im tryin to argue that Marbury in untouchable. Hes not a top 5 point guard but why point out Marbury when:
  • Its currys team
  • Crawford handles the ball alot
  • Richardson cant hit a shot
  • Randolph slows down offense
  • Only 2 good shooters (nate + Marbury)
  • Turnovers
  • Jared Jeffries and Malik Rose
  • No Balkman
  • Lee's limited offense
  • Isiah is the coach
I dont care if people say Marbury hasnt proven anything yet to them this year, I just wanna see him get credit for last year. He played too good to be recieving the criticism from everyone and its F*cked up. Whatever I gotta do to defend him I'll do.

Marbury definately played his best overall ball as a knick last year. i don't think anyone can deny that. u know what it is, when a relationship is falling apart, there comes a point where the relationship can b saved and when it's best to move on. even if that includes my favortie current knicks blakman and lee. the team don't show good chemistry for more than one game every 5-10 games, so let whoever move on already.

Im happy to see someone who actually watched the Knicks this year. I dont care what people say about Marbury this year as long as its constructive but as long as he gets his respect for last year im happy. As you see by my stats im willin to go through whatever to prove this, all underrated players need someone to stick up for them.

January= 81 assists=6.75apg
February= 48 assists=6apg
March= 66 assists=6apg
273/42=6.5apg

Marbury averaged 6.5 assists from December through March of the 06-07 season.

On the season he averaged 5.4 assists but this isnt a good number to go by because of his slow start.

Thanks for supplyin the stats

Let's just say it is what it is.Isiah Fudd has Starbury and is trying to turn him into someone else.His assists go up when he's more aggressive yet Isiah Fudd wants him to play a more passive role.Completely retarted!!! If they tried more pick-n-roll with him and Zach they might actually have something but will Fudd try that,probably not.Isiah Fudd needs to go ASAP.He's failed on all angles with me and he needs to go on the next thing smokin'.
 
Okay since this is Blow it the F#ck up thread. I am bringing in new ideas.

I know Portland is having a lot of success, but I like all the players they got there, but I am interested in 2 that could help this team. but here is a trade I was thinkin of

Knicks trade.... Jamal Crawford, Fred Jones (again), Mardy Collins, and Wilson Chandler FOR Blazers TRAVIS OUTLAW!!! Martell Webster, Steve Blake, and James Jones.
Its a trade that won't happen.. but I would like it too. .

I agree that this would never happen but Im happy to see someone changin the subject (although the first person who disses Marbury knows who they have to answer to) but I would make this deal. Webster would be a big upgrade over Crawford at the 2-guard spot and Outlaws got game. He posterized the shit out of sum dude like a week ago, I forgot who it was but Outlaw can shoot now to, at least from mid range.
 
Plus we would be getting help from Blake on the assists to find our guys, and Jones is great off the bench... But more then anything I like Travis, and Martells energy they are good players.
 
I realised Balkman is one of the most wasted talents on the bench... HE's GOTTA play minutes! He deserves them. I replaced him with Wilson Chandler.. He seems to be raw in the Detroit game..
 
Not really but since Blake is out, He is now. Jack is good. But I rather have Robinson.
