I would probably sit there and take it and keep being a Knicks fan. Alternatively, I could start following the Thunder more closely- really like their players/organization.

Gotta be more specific. Do you mean you will masturbate every chance you get until he is gone or stop masturbating at all? One can lead to blindness and the other your Gallo will shrink even more.

I will shelve my fandom until Dolan sells the team. Enough is enough. I prefer NCAA basketball anyway. St John's upset Duke BIGTIME. That program is also reviving. I'll have a different basketball team to obsess over.

depends on the team to be honest. Obviously it would idiotic beyond measure. The bottom line for me is I'm a Knick fan, and barely follow the NBA if they are worth watching. Most likely I would go into BB hibernation until something changed, no matter how many years it was.

Who knows... maybe Isiah starphucks right for once. I'm always wait and see.

Dave Winfield was one of my fav players of all time, and what George did to him was beyong reprehensible. Steinbrenner was the scum of scumbags yet he managed to turn things around. Would I expect as much from Dolan and Isiah? God no... my only point there is I didnt stop being a Yankee fan. Its about the team on the field (court).

Isiah is genuine piece of crack whore produced ****. He's not even that good... more like a skid mark on a port authority toilet. But what is a Knick fan to do? I wont root for another team, I just dont have it in me. Instead of watching hoops I would just focus on my other interests and sports.

Pretty much the same. I would probably shift my focus on St. Johns.... until Dolan sells the team.

Yeah... like I said above and in other threads, I'll watch the Johnnies a lot more. And more college hoops. What'll be tricky for me is what I do with the New York Rangers. I love hockey. Love it. The Rangers are a huge part of my life but my hatred for Dolan would run real deep. I'm not going to root for another team but there is no subsititute for the Rangers, and I'd have to find something else post-football and pre-baseball.

Isiah Part I destroyed about 95% of my Knicks fandom. I was forced to openly root against the team in hope that he would be removed. It's been really hard to get back into the Knicks now. I don't root against them but it's also been a struggle to root for them again after so many years of despising what the Isiah Knicks represented. That's a huge reason why I haven't been back here much. It's really hard to reignite that flame and I was as diehard a Knicks fan as anybody on this board.

If Isiah officially came back to the Knicks in any capacity, that would kill what's left of the interest I have in the team, until Dolan and Isiah are gone. I won't even bother rooting against them, I'd just have no interest altogether.

If it didn’t work in Phoenix with Nash and Stoutamire... it’s just not a winning formula. It’s an entertaining formula, but not a winning one. - Derek Harper talking about D'Antoni's System

He repulsed me in the tunnel.

He repulsed me on the bench.

Those blowout loses with his clueless expression was awful.

For two years I did not have league pass. Would not watch unless it was a national game.

IMagine a scenario where he is the winning executive and gets handed the championship trophy after walsh worked as hard as he did. Donnie thru all kinds of surgery and pain stuck it out and did a great job.

Isiah returning even if successful would be a real problem for me.

Lets hope rational thought prevails. Warky signing is a good indicater Isiah still not close.

I am a Knick fan no matter what. It's the team/players that I care about. I don't think it's going to happen, if it does.....I'm still a Knick fan.

I'd want to organize an online backlash against cablevision in retaliation. Denial of service attacks, lobbying in washington that impacts cablevision's near monopoly, whipping up outrage in social media channels, etc. Make Dolan's life miserable (though it seems pretty miserable already, the guy is such a schlub), make Isiah's life miserable, and hit the lifeblood of the Knicks - camp cablevision. All-out.
The new new core: Randle, RJ, IQ. Maybe Mitch. Future pick. Future trade. Future FA.

I'm a Knick fan regardless of what Dolan does. Not living in NY, there isn't much I can do, but if Dolan brings Isaiah back, I seriously think it's time for Knick fans to try to force Dolan out. Petitions to the league offices, booing the guy when he comes to the garden - anything like that.

Circumstances under which I would accept Isiah's return to the Knick's Organization:
1) James Dolan publicly states that he was the impetus for 1) The Stephon Marbury Trade, 2) the Keith Van Horn Trade, 3) The Jared Jeffries signing, 4) The Jerome James signing, 5) the Eddy Curry trade, 5) the Steve Francis trade, and 6) the Zach Randolph trade and that he forced Isiah's hand on each of those transactions, that he let Isiah take the rap for the bad transactions.
2) That James Dolan has transferred ownership of the Knicks to some other person.
3) Isiah publicly acknowledges his mistakes and sexual misconduct and apologizes to the fans for the embarassment he has caused us.
4) Isiah's role is limited to that of a director of scouting such that he can have an opportunity to assist in the draft selection process.
5) Under no circumstances is Isiah allowed to (a) have an office at MSG, (b) have authority to enter into any agreement on behalf of the Knicks, (c) travel with the team, (d) talk to the press.

Even if all of the above happened, I'd still think thrice about hiring him.

I'd follow other teams, not the same way I follow the Knicks. I'd still love watching and playing basketball so it would be hard to stop. Reminds me of that South Park episode about the latest Indiana Jones movie. If Dolan brought back Isiah they would be doing to the Knicks what Spielberg and Lucas did to Indy in that show.

A move like this would not only be a big FU to Walsh and the fans it would also be a big FU to David Stern. You know he won't like it. It would be interesting to see how he reacts, if at all.

Agree on the Warky signing. I would certainly rather have him than Zeke, I'd rather have anyone else than Zeke!

I'd start a protest group and stand outside MSG with all my Isiah haters until he quit or was fired.
