The fact of the matter is NO ONE knows what Isiah will do with the roster.

The more relevant question is WHO will be the assistants to replace the three Larry Brown lieutenants?


who knows what Thomas has seen in the workouts or WILL see in Summer League?

Has anyone thought about WHO coaches the Summer League team?


But one thing is certain, there WILL be changes.

In that rotation Nate is probalby going back to about 15 minutes per. Is he happy with that. Jalen not cause a problem about being on the IR? I'd rather cut him than allow him to create a distraction that you know would be coming. Wouldn't he be as confused about his role as players were this year. How would he respond if someone got hurt and you really did need him. All questions to be answered.
I just hope that people will like me

Well, that's what happens when your genius organization trades for a scoring combo guard when you already have 4 of them, and none of them play defense so that's the reality we face right now. I think think Rose pretty much has to be cut and Francis traded. Looking back, I think the only reason Isiah went for Rose was b/c of the draft pick. He's gone. We just can't have this clusterphuck that we have right now.

anyone who's young and athlete stays...then Zeke will surround them with "Young Vets" like Jerome James, Mo Taylor & Malik Rose to set an example for the younger players via draft picks. Marbury will be allowed to do what he wants. Curry will not get the ball where he wants it but he won't complain because he's taking it all to the bank.

You make a good point about Jalen, but I don't think IT likes him. He did trade him to the Bulls for Artest, Miller and Mercer, (who was later traded with Donyell Marshall to Toronto for Antonio Davis and JYD) and then to the Knicks for Antonio Davis (again). The only reason have him on the IR is that he is a lame duck player (not that he can't play, just that in the last year of his contract, he will likely get traded. His trade value doesn't come from his playing ability, it is the expiring contract. Nate getting 15 mins a game might make him bark a little, but I don't think Nate is in a position to make a big stink. A 2nd year PG who can't pass very well doesn't have much leverage.
