i don't think anyone here will disagree with your statement bill.

I hope the Knicks keep on losing because the Bulls are entitled to their draft pick this year.

If he is, it is the worst kept secret in the game

I forgot about that! It just keeps getting better. Maybe they can pick up Christian laettner. I think he still has 10 mil on a contract.

Get someone like Bill Lambeer, won a championship in the NBA and WNBA as a coach. Isiah Thomas was a gifted athlete, but also a real life bully and asshole that nobody respects except when he offers huge contracts for average player.

Joe Dumars even during the bad boy years never got into Isiah Bad boy antics. Joe Dumars had class and I believe the NBA named a reward after him, Good person award or something like that. Does anyone know the yearly award. I believe it was the sportsman award.

Bill Lambeer had a stellar career and is great in coaching in the WNBA and won a championship as a coach.

Nice little rumor coming out of a Detroit. Maybe not true but how funny.

Karl Malones daughter plays for the Detroit Shock, Sheryl Ford. Malone comes once in a while to watch her play, fact one. When in the NBA Lambeer and Malone hated each other, fact two. Lambeer is a smooth positive talking with people dispite his shady NBA career as a villian, fact three, I have seen him talk, he is so smooth that is able to get chrome off rims. Sheryl Ford mentions she loves Lambeer as a coach, stll with the shocked, fact 4. As a person like myself that works mainly around ladies, I can tell you almost every lady out there cherishes and respects a man of power, and money, depends on how much you believe me on this. You will be shocked at what I see what single, engaged, or married ladies do, depends on how much you believe me on this. They try to play innocent but ladies are worse than men when it comes to power and money, depends on how much you believe me on this. I believe there is more to Sheryl Ford and Lambeer that lets on. Time will tell.

Are you suggesting that ANYONE ranks higher up on the "bully and asshole" list than Bill Laimbeer?!?!

Isiah has made several suspect moves since he came into power, but the blame for the Knicks fiasco is in fact shared.

Larry Brown has come into this situation and failed. He has a stable of talented players that have been stripped of their confidence because none of them know their role on this team. There is no continuity to his rotation and often his players look lost on the court.

Stephon Marbury is the core of this team's cancer. Perhaps he wants to win, but he does not want to put forth the effort required to be a winner in the NBA. Throughout his career he has never exhibited the traits of a winner and has zero leadership skills. In fact, he is content with the fact that his jersey sells well to innercity kids, but sees basketball as nothing more than a job. He is a big number on the cap and his game is rapidly deteriorating.

Until this team has a focus and players capable of focusing, they will continue to be an easy win for most of their opponents. Isiah is responsible for bringing Marbury to the Knicks. Bad move but "everybody" loved it when the deal went down. In fact, "everybody" chastised Phoenix management for making such a "bad deal". Take a look at Phoenix since that trade. Isiah also brought in Larry Brown. Is that a bad move? Perhaps, but Larry has not been the coach he has been in the past, and I don't think you can put all of that on Isiah.

I'm calling it: Thomas fired BEFORE the season ends.

I never liked the dirty boys when he was a player although he was great. He is a fine GM imo.

All I see are big unmoveable contracts and a bad mix of players. If Francis comes to NY they will have two undersized shooting guards who can't shoot or two tall point guards who can't pass.

Francis is just more of the same in this situation.
