Ouch! Frye, Robinson and Lee Happy LB is Gone

'05 draft picks glad Larry's gone - Newsday.com

Here are some quotes...

Quote:
"It's not even comparable," Frye said. "It's just a positive environment every day. I'm happy Isiah is here and very excited about what we can do with the guys we have.

"I was excited for a change. It's going to bring some 'positivity' to the team."

"Thank God, we have Isiah right now and there's not as much media attention on what's happening between the coach and Steph," said Frye, who is fully recovered from a sprained left knee suffered near the end of the season.

"It was a weird year between the media and what was going on with the team. Everything was just a giant circus."
Quote:
Robinson said he felt he was in a "tug of war" with Brown, who described him as "a highlight reel, not a point guard." While Thomas has given Robinson a simple blueprint to follow, the 5-9 point guard claimed Brown gave him conflicting instructions from day to day.

"It was like, 'I'm trying to do everything you ask me, and it seems like it's not good enough,' " Robinson said. "It's like, 'We're butting heads here because, Coach, you told me to do this yesterday, but today, you told me not to do it.' ... At first, it was like he was trying to take my joy."
Quote:
"We won six in a row there, and I was a little surprised when, all of a sudden, I'm not only not starting, I'm not playing at all," Lee said. "It was a little strange, and toward the end of the season [playing time] was so up and down. I really didn't understand what was going on."
Well when they put it like that, who can disagree?

These three would be the cornerstone of a 20 win team. A five foot three point guard, a forward that can't shoot, and a guy that all he can do is shoot. Brown must be so happy to get as far from NY as he can, and laughing all the way to the bank.

Cool Re: Ouch! Frye, Robinson and Lee Happy LB is Gone

To be fair, Brown did a lousy job and basically stole money from the Knicks. Now we'll see if the players can back up their words. Go out and win 35 games and then I'll believe it was all Brown's fault.

How bad is it Pundit when a 35 win season will make Knicks fans happy?

Legend: It wouldn't necessarily make me happy but it would back up the players assertions that Brown was a big reason for the very poor season.
