Starbury vs Hawks March 3, 2007
I know you guys like the title lol.

But all jokes aside the knicks beat the hawks in OT and Marbury was A BEAST!!

He player over 51 minutes
5 REBOUNDS!
9 DIMES!
5 STEALS!
ONLY 1 TO!
6 THREE POINTERS!
38 POINTS!

Francis also had a good game with 29 points in 41 mintues. Amazing how those legs got 100% better after JC went down lol.

Thumbs up Re: Starbury vs Hawks.
Sorry Tru, I was studying most of the day and forgot about making a game thread and I forgot to even watch this game. Steph has been on fire lately. He has been carrying this team.

Hey Dog what you think about our Brooklyn native now?

Stephon Marbury managed to sit for only two minutes. Steve Francis had a hard time remembering the last time he played so many. Marbury scored 11 of his 38 points in overtime and the New York Knicks made up a late 15-point deficit to beat Atlanta 104-100 on Saturday night, the Hawks' fifth straight loss.



Francis added six of his season-high 26 points in the overtime. Marbury and Francis scored all of New York's 17 points in the extra period and 33 of the Knicks' last 35 points. "It was exciting because we were down. We never felt like we were going to lose," said Marbury, who played 51 of 53 minutes.


Marbury hit on a three-point play to give the Knicks the lead for good in OT at 93-90 with 3:44 left and added a 3-pointer 37 seconds later for a 96-90 lead.

Marbury was 6-of-14 from behind the arc but said: "I don't consider myself a 3-point shooter." He was shooting at 42 percent before Saturday night, connecting on 300 of 714.


Marbury, who had 34 points Friday night in a 106-97 win over Golden State, also had nine assists. It was the second consecutive win for the Knicks after going 10 straight games of winning one and losing one.

New York pulled within a game of New Jersey for eighth place in the Eastern Conference.


Francis played 41 minutes off the bench after starting guard Quentin Richardson only played the first 10 minutes before leaving with a sore lower back, an ailment that cost him 11 games earlier this season.


"I haven't played 41 minutes in two years," said Francis, a three-time All-Star who was traded by Orlando in February 2006 and averaged a career-low 14.4 points.

This season he has been hampered by right knee and ankle problems, missing 33 games and averaging 9.1 points. He decided to play again after New York lost starting guard Jamal Crawford to ankle surgery earlier this week.


"I guess it's belief. I'm not hiding anything from anybody. I'm still injured. I'm not 100 percent but I'm going to give it what I've got," Francis said. Marbury made 10 of 11 free throws, including 5-for-5 in the fourth quarter and overtime. Francis was 8-of-13 overall and 6-of-11 in the final period and OT.


"Marbury's been on a roll, and once Francis got going, it was tough to stop them," said Atlanta coach Mike Woodson. "They were penetrating and getting to the free throw line. We were settling, and we didn't get to the line. I thought that was the difference coming down the stretch run."


The Hawks, who have lost seven of eight, got within 103-100 on a 3-point basket by Joe Johnson with 51.5 seconds left. Johnson led the Hawks with 32 points.

"We couldn't come up with the big plays down the stretch," Johnson said. "It's frustrating, but it's been a trend of ours all year."


The Hawks blew a 67-52 lead late in the third quarter, but managed to go to overtime when Johnson made an easy dunk with 50 seconds left to tie it at 87 after Tyronn Lue stole an inbounds pass.


The Knicks took an 87-83 lead with 3:08 left in regulation on a pair of free throws by Francis, who scored 10 points in the quarter. But Josh Smith, who finished with 20 points and 11 rebounds, made a pair of free throws with 2:03 left to get Atlanta within 87-85 before Johnson tied it.


Marbury had a chance to win it in regulation, but his driving layup slid off the rim at the buzzer. Smith also had three blocks, making him the youngest player in NBA history with 500 career blocked shots (21 years, 88 days). Smith is in his third season, a first round draft pick after playing his senior season at Oak Hill Academy in Virginia.

"It feels good. It's another stepping stone," he said. "It's bittersweet, because we lost. It would have been great to get the record and a win."


The Hawks led 49-37 at the half with Johnson scoring 17 points, including a 3-pointer at the halftime buzzer. Johnson scored 12 straight points in the opening quarter to give Atlanta a 23-13 lead, which the Hawks stretched to 31-15 at the end of the period on 3s by Anthony Johnson and Josh Childress.

The only other New York player in double figures was Renaldo Balkman, who had 12 points and 13 rebounds. Marbury had 11 points at halftime and Francis, who came off the bench, had only three.

Re: Starbury vs Hawks March 3, 2007
come on now, lets not give steph the idea that we need him to be the focal point of our offense in order for us to win.....his days are gone....lets keep this a temporary thing until we're at full strength.....

no matter what anybody says I trust jamals jumpshot over marburys anyday....

also notice that eddy didnt have a good game... while i like steph taking over once in a while i wouldnt like him to get the idea that he needs to play like this every night....i really dont like seeing steph and francis in double figures and everybody else not...

Give me a break, sometimes Steph has to take over games and in the past 2 games he did just that. Curry made 12 attempts and hit only 3 field goals..including miss a dunk. He is entitled to have bad games, so that's where Steph and Francis stepped in to secure the victory. Let's savior the win and the fact we are 1 game out of 8th and may make a move for 6 place in the playoffs. I don't know about you ....but I'm tired of rebuilding the rest of the teams in the league instead of our own. I"m focus on trying to make the playoffs by any means necessary, and hoping that we have such a low draft pick that will make that "Knicks just won the lottery thread" as dead as Frye's game.

Re: Starbury vs Hawks March 3, 2007
Marbury & Francis took 42 shots combined and scored 64 points that makes their team effort above 600%. To see the two do it again within the next 3 games would be fine with me as long as they average 12 or more assists together.

What this Knick Team needs is for last year Coach Larry Brown two Starters (Curry & Q.Richardson) to start going on a scoring explosion together to WIN some games down the stretch.

So far Rookie Combo-Guard Mardy Collins & PF/SF-Renaldo Balkman is panning out well within the Knicks rotation.

I'm still not sure about Jared Jefferies place in the rotation, he only brings one dimension to the team and he is not all that good at that. Because he become confuse after the Knicks defend well down court, his offensive positioning is shattered.

I think the same as I have thought....
for most of this season. He is an extremely gifted player who can be one of the best when he plays like he has. My problems with him in the past were his attitude and his nonchalance for defense. Don't expect me to back away from my concerns about his wheels due to mileage. If he was healthy (no tendinitis, etc), I would rather have the offense centered on him, rather than Curry. What else would you like me to say?
