    I actually thought Ricky Davis' shot at his own basket was kind of smart, definitely selfish and a bad move, but smart.

      It would have been smart if it was legal to do lol. It didn't count as an offical shot nor an offical rebound so he looked like a complete *******. I remember the fans booing him.

        He didn't pass it to himself. He was called for travelling because he touched the ball to bounce it to himself with both hands. If he did a one-handed bounce, it would have been legal.

        In the Steve Francis clip, he took at least 5 steps. Blatant.

        Nate is turning into another Marbury/Francis already and it seems Knick fans are loving the training process. Way to go Zeke
        Have you seen them play this year?

        If you knew why Knicks fans like Robinson, you would realize it's for his energy, hustle plays and much improved shooting percentage. If he made the dunk, you wouldn't get a true fan to cheer about it because it was totally idiotic to attempt. He did the same dunk in a preseason game and was chastised for it.

          I'd try to trade him or bury him on the bench, I just couldn't have a player with that kind of mentality playing for me if I was a coach. If I was a teammate we probably would be fighting in the locker room after the game.

          The other low BB I.Q. plays are bad enough, but that move exibits the worse kind of clueless selfishness a player can display.

          Maybe it doesn't bother Knicks fans that much, but if any Laker did that(including Kobe) I would honestly want him gone the next day. You can have "joy" without being a clown.

          Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.

            I know his energy and hustle is why Knick fans love him bigeast, but to be honest with you, he has the worst kind of vets around him in terms of examples. He wanted LB gone because LB tried instilling discipline. This is the kind of crap he wanted to do. Showboat look at me kind of stuff. Same as Francis and Marbury.

            Zeek doesn't have control over this team and pretty soon if he isn't careful he'll have a woeful 3some at the pg position.

              Attitude-wise, I'll agree that Marbury is a cancer.

              However, where did you get the info that Nate Robinson wanted LB gone? That never came out. The players who didn't like Larry Brown were Stephon Marbury and Eddy Curry.

              And...just to clear something up, Stephon Marbury is not a showboat. Never was. He's just an annoying S.O.B., selfish, greedy and a malcontent. That's not Nate and never has been his style.

                  The same way he plays now is the same way he played in college.

                    At least Francis makes his dunks.

                    Nasty Nate, on the other hand.....

                      I told you there was an article with direct quotes from nate bigeast, and also the one posted here with how discontent he was with LB "taking my joy away"

                      Anyhow, Francis is the showboat, Marbury is the look at me Im the best guard in the NBA shoot first pg that NY now has 3 of including Nate.

                        You're right on both parts of your post. I remember reading them somewhere. A lot of people had problems with Larry though. From what it seems like Nate and Steph don't take him serious at all either. Isiah was trying to talk to Stephon during freethrows or something and Steph just laughed at him. Isiah had to hold Nate back from the ref in the Cleveland game, at the end of the game, while he was screaming at the ref. I don't think Isiah has control of the team, but that's another topic all together.

                          Funny to that youtube video of Nate doing a dunk during the Knicks shootaround before and game and he and Francis high fiving eachother as he say to Nate "you're looking like me when I was young boy, you're looking like me when I was young"...LOL
