Knicks Enjoy Playing Isiah's Style

New York Daily News - The Knicks defeated the Nets by a final score of 111-97 on Friday night at Madison Square Garden. There were no boos from the small crowd for Isiah Thomas and the players enjoyed playing for him.

"By far," Marbury said, when asked if the team has more freedom under Thomas than they did with Larry Brown. "It's not even close.

"Now you can just go out and play basketball and do what you do on the basketball court. It's not thinking about trying to make the right play. It's just playing basketball. Basketball is a thinking man's game; it's not a game where you can go on the court and say, 'Oh, okay, well, I'm supposed to do this, and if I do this, then this is going to happen.' It doesn't work that way."

Well I think its official, Starbury hates Brown's guts.

And it's also offical that the Knicks suck so bad that Greg Oden will be a Bull in 2007

The Knicks do like they're molding together well & at least Stephon Marbury & Steve Francis haven't critized Isiah Thomas's coaching tactics yet. I think that the team will actually do good as long as Isiah keeps the whole ballclub happy & there won't be any negative feedback towards the team like the way Larry Brown did them last year. After this season though, they should really dump guys like Jerome James, Jalen Rose, & Steve Francis or Stephon Marbury in order to cut down their salary cap.
