I would let this team play out the season and go for a high lottery pick like a franchise player.Let who ever else is coming off the payroll come off. The problem with the Knicks is that they are not a smart team and the damage is already done. No super star is coming to New York let's face it. All of the GMs hate Zeke and do not want to do business with him. Zeke picked this team and he picked Curry who can't rebound, can't defend. This is not an intelegent team. They are very uneducated in the game of basketball. Zeke can say it's us against the world but this team just might be the worst team in the league. All Zach do is get the ball and shoot weather or not he has a good look. I would keep Zeke and let him run out the season with the worst record in the league. Lets get that lottery pick Then a new GM and Coach just might get us a star player to go with our lottery pick. The sooner we start all over the quicker we will have a playoff team. David Lee, Balkman , Collin, and N8 are all none starters on any good team in the NBA Lets face it. This will be a painfull season. What I don't want to happen is for another coach to come in and we win 38 games kicking us out of the chance of getting the top 2 lottery picks. This is the only way to rebuild, get a lottery franchise player. This team is not going anywhere and my reason for this is that they are not an inteligent team. You can see that as they play. They will not play defense , they keep turning the ball over and our young players are not as good as other young player in this league. You give the ball to Zach and he will never pass it out to another play who may be open. He just shoots the ball no matter what.
I am a Knicks die hard fan and I'm a Knicks lover but we need a franchise player and the only way to get him is through the draft. Keep Isiah and maybe we win 20 games at the rate we are going or if Zeke gets fired bring in Herb Williams.
I'm not wishing for the Knicks to lose but the hand writing is on the wall.

I tend to agree with you but one thing.
Isiah and steph presence became unbareble and if we want to save little respect we have for this team they need to go ASAP.
Yes - our young players are not stars but they can be good role players. But with IT they cannot get time to develop and thay need real coach without any agenda.
