basketballJones - The fact that Isiah survived the failed military coup attempt of Larry Brown tells me that he has the respect of Dolan.

What are you talking about??? Isiah survived that because Larry was the one who wasn't afraid to speak up and stand up to Dolan. Isiah's survival instinct (kinda like a ****roach's) was to firmly attach his lips to Dolan's backside. That's what Dolan respects from his employees. There is absolutely nothing to suggest that Isiah would speak up and stand up to Dolan.

Again, you have zero clue or you're just spinning the obvious truth.

what course are we staying on is the question? are we going to try & win now w/Marbury as a key player, or are we going to allow the young guys to take over this team & go through the natural growing pains while building a good core for the future? Isiah doesn't have a course... he's trying to win now w/Marbury while building up w/the youth, & that's just not going to yield any positive results... eventually you have to make a choice... what course do we want to follow?
