I would keep a close eye that this does not EXPLODE

I think that fans are looking for a black ex knick.

Starks, Oak, Mase, BLACKmon. Ron Harper (not bad), G Anthony? Landry Fields (he's black enough)? OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOohhhhoooooohhh I gut one, how about Ewing? David Buter?

Let Phil do his job.

All joking aside, I think fans want someone with a proven track record. I think Mark Jackson is good choice for a younger roster. Our guys have been in the league too long for that "rah, rah" stuff. Kerr could be a good coach someday. I'd just prefer it if we went with someone with a bit of a track record. Mike Fratello would be at the top of my list along with Lionel Hollins and JVG.

HUGE no to Hollins. Hollinger outed him.

Fratello has been a hasbeen for like ever and I don't like his hair.

I would love JVG but not under Jax. No freakin way that can work. ditto for stanley

Fratello won nearly 50 games with a big a three of Chris Mill, Bobby Phills and Terrell Brandon. That makes him a miracle worker in my book. as for Hollins, the dude can coach. Coaches clash with front office guys all the time. Look at the way JVG cried over the Camby trade. doesn't take away from JVG as coach.

How long ago was that? and how does that fix the hair?

He's boys with Marv. I'm sure he can find a nice, understated hair piece to wear on the sidelines.

ugh! was there ever a coach who wore a piece? how can any player respect a player with a piece? Not buyin

You mean two-time China league champ and international superstar Stephon Marbury? I'm down as long as he doesn't force management to build a statue outside MSG.

maybe a playa coach ayyy? I'm down with that train wreck in the waiting - would be as good as any ole vegas show.

Jackson was my choice before Danphoney came aboard, I say NO to Ewing.

When Charlotte's coach got ejected from the game against the Knicks Ewing looked clueless when he stepped in as the coach. He only got coaching jobs from the Vandummy clan(Stan and Jeff who he helped become the coach of the knicks- It's why Stan hired him in Orlando ) and his boy Jordan looked out for him. We need someone who wore the blue orange and white , but also who knows what they are doing and can handle the media expectations.

I would never want Ewing as a head coach, but I think he would do better then Herb(9 lives)Williams as an assistant,

Yes, fans in ny want someone with a winning track record. Like Lenny, Like Larry, Like Isiah, Like MDA............but we have to go with potential not past performance. Phil would do it but he knows his body won't let him put the hours in. He'll hire someone hungry that COULD get the job done.

But it won't be instantly.

Fans rarely have imagination and want that starphuch. I do too, but its time to go in a different direction.
