Isiah wasn't fired. He is still an employee of the Knicks and still has Dolan's ear.

This is why I bring up MSG politics and nobody wants to discuss it.

The new regime would only be legit if Isiah was fired, no longer employed by Dolan and MSG.

Dolan and Isiah has some kind of alliance that nobody really chooses to discuss why it still exist.

Fans need to understand , Knicks payout a lot of money for new faces , but the franchises core's stench is still there.

JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.

i think dolan and isiah's relationship are like frat brothers. they are part of this boys' club and i think dolan loves having isiah around. and isiah is a smooth operator. would it shock anyone if in 2 years, isiah returns to a more visible role on the team?

No, but I think you are not giving Walsh enough credit. The guy had a relationship with Isiah before he hired him and in his words let him run the team while with the Pacers. Once Bird fires the guy which Walsh did not agree with at the time, gave him a glowing recommendation for Dolan. I didn't realize how friendly Mike D' and Isiah were either until reading it on ESPN. No wonder Isiah always had wonderful things to say about him and the Suns.

Yes that would shock me. Not on the Knicks. Why he hasn't asked out of this situation to go work with his buddy Dumars in Detroit is what surprises me. No way I'd stick around here, but maybe Dumars wouldn't even take him on now after he's run the Knicks into the ground and all the other nonsesnse he's managed to get himself into. Maybe his only real option is to stay, suck it up, clean the toilets when everyone goes home and continue to cash his team president pay checks... Very weird situation all around....
