The have almost all scorers
The need more like role players like definsive players, rebounders, a true point gard, and players that hustle
See the Heat r the champions because they have a perfect balance of all of that
team players
Like u said all of these players have talent but look at how many are really team players
maybe 2 or 3
Thats why larry Brown could not work with them
I don't think Thomas will do any better

They don't play as a team, there is no comraderie with the Knicks. They come out and play lethargically as if they really don't care if they win or lose. It doesn't help that Marbury says he's the best point guard in the league when he's so far from it and I think his teammates resent him. Curry needs to come into training camp 25 pounds lighter so he can run and not get tired and play so sloppy down the stretch and whoever coaches them next year when Isaiah either bales or gets fired should rotate the bench and give some other players a chance. Larry Brown's lineups at time didn't make sense.

The New York Knicks will win more games next year. Larry Brown was not the perfect or good coach for them, i dont care what anyone thinks. Being from Philly, i saw when Larry Brown gave away the sixers future for old veteran players. Iverson, Hughes, Stackhouse, Tim Thomas and Nazr Mohammed is a starting lineup that the sixers never saw from rookies. Snow, Iverson, Lynch, T.Hill, Ratliff is what we saw instead. This team got Philly to the CHampionship, but it was all veterans. Look at Darko Milicic in Detroit, the 2nd pick overall saw no minutes, but in Orlando he is showing some nice signs, and i promise you he will be a decent player this year.
The Knicks is Isaiah Thomas team, they will win more games with him as the coach. I think they are missing a pure point guard to LEAD the team like how Isiah Thomas was with the Pistons. So they do need to trade Francis, or Marbury.(Francis more).

The Knicks have given up in this season already. they have particularly folded their hand. They do have a plan, it comprises the huge classification of unfastened brokers on the tip of this season, and all of the cap area the Knicks have freed up by employing no longer signing each individual of notice. The Knicks are basing their destiny plans on touchdown a variety of precise tier unfastened brokers (LeBron, DWade), and then development a contender around him. Iverson does not extra healthful into that plan. The Knicks might purely keep him around for something of this season, when you consider that no star participant is going to wish to connect a team with a egocentric and self-based guy like Iverson already on the roster. From the Knicks point of view, the worst difficulty that could desire to take place is they sign Iverson, he performs quite properly (when you consider that he's the only scoring option) and then on the tip of the season Knicks followers are clamoring for the team to re-sign him.

cause there players didn't have the will under Larry Brown to win because they didn't like them and Larry just couldn't find the right line up for them hopefully Isaiah can but i don't think he will he is terrible GM and a coach. Lets see if he can put the team he put together into a playoff team. I think Isaiah is gone after this season but that is just my opinion.
