I just listened to this segment, as well as the one earlier with Michael Kay on 1050.
Walsh said that when they sat down to discuss possibilities it was Walsh, D'antoni and Dolan. Not Isiah. He implied that he understood that Isiah was in Dolan's ear (as a friend of the owner) but that Isiah had no direct voice in their strategy meetings.
He also said that during the last couple of days he was on top of the situation on a "minute-by-minute" basis. It sound like he is claiming that he was running the show, at least logistically and with regard to the nitty gritty, through to the end.
Show me proof (e.g. a quoted, non-anonymous, reputable basketball person within the organization) that will explain how exactly Isiah organized this. I honestly believe that the Knick fans' fear is creating a bogeyman type of irrational worry. I know because I have been feeling it. But I'm not convinced that it's true.
I'm really believing that Isiah is mostly trying to take advantage of the situation via his media contacts to inflate his own image and give false ideas about his importance currently in the Knick organization.
Most important immediate signing for the Knicks: Walsh.
If Walsh is here to guide the Knicks in skillfully filling out the roster and eventually signing Deron W. or CP3, we can be very happy. Dolan needs to pick up that option and then we as Knick fans can rest easy.
