[OT]WTF Isiah back as the Knicks GM

[hypnosmurf]

Walsh, the Knicks' president, said Thomas will be on his list of candidates if he is given the go-ahead to hire a general manager.

How dumb....

wow

 

[hypnosmurf]

I guess If you can't get Lebron then Isiah is a great back up plan. Long live the fall of the Knicks.

 

[Master Shake]

LOL

It was Donnie Walsh's way of crushing the idea that Kevin Pritchard was set to replace him as GM. I thought it quite funny, actually.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

There is no way anyone could be so stupid as to have him as a coach, GM or towel boy.

Walsh is old school. I get the feeling KP really rubbed those kind of guys the wrong way -- on the other hand he and the Daryl Morey's, Sam Presti's, etc. who are into deep statistical analysis and the "new wave" way of running the business, probably all got along pretty well.

So now other teams are trashing KP? I mean to say that Zeek gets an interview before KP is pretty nasty.

Amazing! The man single handedly ruined that franchise and they bring him back? He must have something on Walsch or the owners! He blackmailed (no pun intended) his way back in!

Talk about the ultimate punch in the gut for Knicks fans.......... hahaha

Step 1: No Lebron/Bosh/Wade
Step 2: Bring back Isiah Thomas
Step 3: Collect inflated contracts
Step 4: Start decade over

NY is obviously looking to hire the only GM who Pritchslapped KP.

KP ended up Pritchslapping himself. So, are the Knicks going to hire KP?

Isiah is the only GM brave enough to trade Amare for Zbo and his expiring contract in December.

It's part of the new plan to clear as much cap space as possible.

Jim Dolan must love that stupid mother fucker.

Zeke isn't getting an interview. Again it was Walsh's way of saying the GM position would not be opening up under him.

i guess a good sign that you've just got out of bed is when you read this topic and think of isiah rider first......

 

[BlazerCaravan]

If anyone is going to offer Oden a max deal when he becomes an RFA, it'd be Zeke... can we re-up Oden now, please?

 

[Shooter]

This has to be a joke.
