Yeah, let's just make him coach, GM, and President of BB operations- Dolan's basketball version of the "Triple Play."

Im just waiting to see Isiah appear on TV in any official capacity as a Knick. That will be the last day I am a Knick fan. You can only be beat down so much before you have to throw in the towel

The thing is he's a better coach than he is GM (not saying much!- but at least the players seem to respond to him), so I don't get why he's determined to make a come back as a GM rather than a coach.

so you are ok with this briggs... lets see how you feel when the knicks trade Anthony randolph, gallo and two future first round picks for Rashard lewis, and JJ reddick.... typical Isiah move....

This is overreaction to something that Isiah has no authority for. A consultant does not make the deal. Besides all GMs have a deal where they look bad on even Walsh. How many here are still not over the T-Mac deal.

I like the product that is currently on the Knicks and that is why I watch the Knicks. This is just fans being stupid, this has nothing to do with being a passionate Knicks fan. I think we all need to kill the noise and keep the focus on the Knicks players the positive of the season coming up. Concentrating on Management side is crazy. Isiah is in a consulting role which means he makes suggestions. Another thing is Dolan really feels that Isiah got a raw deal in the Anucha Brown thing, I tend to agree with that too.

I actually agree about the overreaction idea, and pretty much said the same thing when he was first hired, but there is more concern for alarm, now. My early position was that Dolan was just helping out a friend. The recent stories from Berman and Isola are troubling though, and have obviously led to the "noise" you refer to. I originally thought that they were just trying to attract some readers, but that old cliche- Where there's smoke there's fire can never be far from our minds when more and more stories are coming out.

If the stores columnists are throwing out to the public are true- then I think there could be cause to worry. Isiah being in a consultation role and offering ideas is one thing- giving him the power to act on his ideas is what scares everyone, and should be a legitimate cause for concern to anyone who is a fan.

really? why is he even back when your prez of operations and others in the organization protested him comming back? If walsh quits or retires you can bet this snake becomes GM.. at which point, as a fan of 30+ years.. I am done!
