Forget about Balkman, it's just about Isiah's HUGE bruised ego.

Well, GA was nothing compared to IT and so he should not be judging IT's decisions. What team has GA managed? What draft pick has GA made under the pressure of the media and an entire city watching his every move? Did GA draft T-Mac? Did GA draft Lee when everyone else said we should have taken Taft or Blanche? Who is GA that he should criticize IT like he has more cred than IT. I am not saying I think IT should have responded. He definitely should not have. But I am not going to bash him b/c GA has not done anything in this league worthy of allowing him to talk down to IT like IT is some idiot.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So now no media journalist can criticize Isiah because they have never been a GM? Since we're not journalists, but we still haven't been GM's, can we criticize him? Because he really has done a crappy job thus far.

Of course people can criticize (even us posters who probably know less than GA), but my point is that GA is a former player that had a marginal career and other than being a journalist, he has not really done anything. For him to make light of IT's decisions and basically say IT is an idiot has to be taken by IT as offensive. IT should have ignored it, but if you were IT and had the basketball career that he had and had the past success that he has had in drafting, you would be a little ticked that some marginal a** player that has never acted as a GM of anything called you out like you were a chump. IT responded in the wrong way, but I fail to see how you think he was wrong for thinking the way he did.

Anthony never called Isiah an idiot. He doubted this one pick like 99% of the free world. I for one in no way shape or form interpreted GA's comments as calling IT an idiot. If IT interprets it that way, maybe it's a case of guilty conscience, who knows. I can agree with the message while disagreeing with how it is delivered, and that is fully the case now.

I'm glad I only read the last two pages...good posts all around.

Joe, I've been trying to ignore you hatin since the summer...but your posts are so long and plentiful, they keep interupting the love.

Though why so angry at me, Tapseer basically said the same thing.

Dope.

Why are you dry snitching on me???


Because he's a bitch, who will throw anybody under the bus to get people to like him, or at the very minimum to stop them from making fun of his insecure self.

yeah, I was shocked it was so long, then even more shocked it was about zeke going postal on Greg Anthony.

This was a good one like the MoT manup thread.

Fun times.

I was joking with him. Calling someone a bitch is way out of line. We all just posting stuff here. We all have different opinions, I don't think what anybody says here makes them a bitch.

Bottom line: If Isiah was a winning GM/coach, joe wouldn't care what he said to GA. Since Isiah is losing, joe is frustrated with his moves and that hate transfers to other stuff. I dunno why isles hates Isiah.

I don't even dislike him....He hasn't done anything worth while here. It is no feeling or anything like that.....just that he hasn't accomplished anything and he is talking like we have to respect him for all these great things that he did.

Ok, so if he had accomplished something, say for example, make good draft picks, you would be ok with him talking like that?

If he won it would be easier to swallow, but I am still not one for all the tough talk, especially when you have had minimal success as a coach and a little more success as a GM, but are in the situation Isiah is in now. Isiah is lucky to still have a job and he is talking like he is owed something for this wonderous team he has built.

but atleast he made good draft picks. every year as the Knick GM. a couple of people brought up david lee too. Why question the one thing he is good at without having him play even 2 seconds?

Like you said before works both ways.....let him play before Isiah starts saying how right he is.

he appears to be right as rain. Why not give the benefit of the Summer League and Pre Season doubt?

Because there have been tons of guys who perform well in S/L and preseason that suck in the season. Like Skita.

So we are in agreement then. Since Greg Anthony spoke without watching him start, Isiah responded in kind.

EDIT: So Greg started it but they were basically both wrong. I can live with that.

the only person that may have a gripe with the pick is BRIGGS. I never even heard of the guy until the draft, but am ecstatic Zeke did.

He was MVP of the minor league tourney, that has to count for something.
