<div class="quote_poster">Quoting CB4 RAPTOR MVP:</div><div class="quote_post">haha u know nothing do u lol. the raps finished fourth in the atlantic n the KNICKS FINISHED LAST. lol u know nothin about the nba</div> They were tied for the same record. You shouldn't be so happy having the same record as a lottery team. For the last time, CB4 RAPTOR MVP, please stay on topic.
Back to the topic at hand. I think Crawford is oing to be a great player and a future all star. I think eventually he will be more important to the knicks than marbury.
crawford more imprtant then marbury? how can u say that. marburys a top 5 pg in the league n hes all the knicks have goin for them. at best crawfrd mite just squeak in as top 10-15

next time just edit your post. IF marbury's so good why hasnt he ever done anything for his teams. Hes been traded three times i wouldnt be suprised if he get6s the axe from new york in the next few seasons because of them not winning. If im correct has marbury never gotten out of the first round with players on his team like KG, Shawn Marion and Amare Stoudmire. Lets put him bak on Phoenix and see where they go.
I agree with the notion that Crawford is more important to Knicks future than Marbury, and it doesn't have much to do with age. With the way Steph plays, he has to have the ball to be effective. Also, his defence is nothing to brag about. You can't build a championship team with a guy like him since his ego won't allow him to differ to others for long.

Please elaborate on "his ego not allowing him to differ to others for long" I don't really understand.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting MrJ:</div><div class="quote_post">So if it's not the future, what is it then? .</div> Emmm Now? The present? Right now, Marbury is better than Crawford, and will be for probably for a couple of years. But 5, 6 and 7 years down the road, Crawford will be in his prime and that's when Steph drops out of the equation. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">And when Marbury has the ball, he gives you 20 points and 8 assists per game.

Look at the dramatic change Phoenix is going through now that they got a point guard who does his job right and differs the ball with basicly the same team they had with Marbury (except for Q).

Since then they had: Amare in his 3rd year with a new and improved jumper A different head coach A new and improved Joe Johnson Quintin Richardson I guess this is Marbury's fault he didn't have these players

All he could do was lose in the first round to the spurs and then have a terrible second year with the suns which is why he got traded( by the way that was a terrible trade for NY as if the hadn't trade for him they would have had cap space). Im not saying marburys fully at fault, but wuth a line up like that and marbury the self proclaimed best pg in the league, then the least he could have done was get them to the second round.

He obviously wasn't as good as he was now. Marion was this good. And also you didn't mention that they had a different coach and Joe Johnson wasn't this good either. I don't understand how losing to the Spurs is bad. They were the NBA champions and they took it to game 6 which is very good. He also hit a game winner for them too. Because Marbury was doing so well that season, Colangelo gave him a huge extension into 2008. The reason why he traded was to get cap space. He didn't have a terrible year with the Suns. Amare was injured in the begining and they struggled.
