Isiah vs Marbury: Round (I’ve Lost Count)
Yesterday, Isiah Thomas had promised everyone that Stephon Marbury’s ban from The Garden had been lifted and that the injured point guard would be in the building. Marbury was of course a no-show, and today, there’s renewed talk of filing a grievance against the organization. From Newsday:
Union lawyers and staff have been discussing Marbury’s situation during the past two days and are weighing their options, including a grievance on Marbury’s behalf.
According to the Players Association, the Knicks should buy out the Artist Formerly Known as Starbury if they no longer want him around. This is probably the wisest move, considering that hardly anyone will want him in a trade next season.
In other Knicks news: Isiah’s job appears to be on the line again, which can only mean one thing, and one thing alone: He’ll continue to be gainfully employed by the Knicks for the foreseeable future.

Jamie Fox to play Marbury in an award wining waterfront-style drama about the Knicks. DonCheadle to play Zeke. And my money’s on Tom Arnold to put in a suprise power house performance of Dolan’s gut… it’s the only way ANYTHING good will ever come out of this sorry saga.

What was once a promising partnership has turned into such sadness, yet entertainment. Zeke, I applaud you. Steph, I applaud you. Keep the show going!

I hope Marbury gets bought out, joins the Celtics, rediscovers his all-star form, becomes one half of KG & Showbiz The Sequel, wins a ring, and spends the offseason producing hilarious, nonsensical, joy-induced soundbites.

Make all the jokes you want, Steph is still a pretty good ballplayer, Isiah just has no f*@king clue on how to run a team. We need to get Isiah out of NY asap

Canadian; or behind in loses depending on which way you look at it, if I was either a Heat or Knicks fan (which luckily I’m not) I would want them to lose as many games as possible to maximise their chances in the Beasley-lottery.

canadian says:
sad but true the lottery chase is the brightest spot on the knicks or heat horizons.
will Isiah ever go?

Beasley on the Knicks (given the current roster and management) would be a disaster of epic proportions.
