Isiah & Stephon Better Produce Or Else <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post"> October 27, 2006 -- or new Knick coach Isiah Thomas, Stephon Marbury will either be the life preserver who saves his job or the dead weight that drowns him. With Knick owner James Dolan declaring that Thomas' job is on the line, it will be up to Marbury to save him. For Marbury, who is not even 30 yet, this is another chance to prove he is more than just a player with a lot of talent, but few victories. Ever since Thomas, in his now dual role of team president, made the huge 2004 deal to acquire Marbury from Phoenix, their careers have been married. Marbury now has the coach he wants, a coach implementing the system he wants.</div> Link Isiah and Starbury are under pressure this year and they're going to need to bring it if they want to keep their jobs, but everything is going smooth so far. The Knicks are 4-2 in the preseason, Stephon has his changed attitude, and all that's left is how Isiah is going to manage the roster he has.
