KNICKS HIRE DONNIE WALSH AS PRESIDENT

Well, it is certainly a start.

Until Isiah Thomas is fired however, anything short of trading for LeBron James is meaningless news as far as I’m concerned.

There was a time, not so long ago, when the end of April meant a great Knick game every couple of nights, whether it was against the Heat, the Pacers, or of course the Bulls, it was must see TV when the basketball play-offs got under way.

Since this “team” was put in Isiah Thomas’ hands however, I haven’t been able to sit through one single game, not to mention, care about an entire series of games. Add Isaiah’s name to the list of not just awful, but embarrassing coaches/managers my teams have had over the years (Rich Kottite, Jeff Torborg) and please let’s just move on.

Listening to Thomas’ answers when reporters ask him anything, I am left with a feeling that Isaiah is actually mocking us and laughing inside thinking the joke is on us with how unrealistic the answers he gives us are. There is no way someone in this position can be so out of touch with reality. I won’t even get involved in the disgraceful sexual harassment case, and all Isaiah’s racist comments and attitudes…all I ask is that this man please go away, never to return to Madison Square Garden, the Knicks, or anything New York related ever again.

As for Donnie Walsh, it’s not like he comes here with a hand full of rings, he doesn’t even have a finger full of rings, so we’re not getting the next coming of Red Auerbach, but at this point all we can hope is that the knocks lose the rest of their games this week and next week, Donnie fires Isiah as soon as the season ends, and Walsh can figure out someway to get ride of players, free up some cap space and at least bring in interesting, exciting, and decent players that make basketball in NY worth watching again.

We miss you Patrick Ewing.
