I could care less if Isiah is guilty or not. I don't know the man and could give two flying fahoots about him. Same in regards to Dolan. REgardless of the outcome of the trial the damage is done in my view. Once again we look like an undignified, poorly run organization. When will it end?

All I ask is for us to fire our coaches with dignity so that other coaches will want to come coach for us. All I ask is that we fire our front office people with dignity so that other good front office people will want to come work for us. All I ask is that when we cheat on our spouses we cheat with someone far removed from our organization and not soil our own interns. Regardless of the outcome of this trial, we need to make changes.

No need to MAKE changes.
Changes WILL COME.
After some point it is out of control.

I disagree. I think a .500 record will be more than enough to quiet everyone down.
I just hope that people will like me

I'm looking forward to what Mark Cuban has to say about Stern not taking any action against Isiah and Dolan.

What Isiah and Dolan have done is far worse to the image of the NBA than everything that Cuban has done combined.

No disrespect, but clearing his name sounds a little too lofty, if you ask me. Who walks out of a courthouse and doesn't tell the cameras they will appeal. It's like blaming the refs after a loss, you just gotta do it.

Where is Al Sharpton pretending he cares in order to get media attention. It's too bad women's organizations and sponsors don't put pressure on dolan to fire this ******* so we can start to dismantle this ship and add class.

He wont be fired, fined nor suspended. He will not be punished at all by Dolan or the NBA.

People who count will see this as a sham.

I guess all that talk about justice was just a bunch of BS. You were very much choosing sides and hoping for a verdict favoring the defendants.

Sorry you didn't get what you wanted.

Sounds like you are speaking about yourself since you were openly hoping for the worst against Isiah, Dolan and MSG.

I wanted justice. If that meant 1-3 years severence pay that was fine by me. This judgement shows it for a sham.

I predict the NBA will not anything at all to Isiah or Dolan. No suspensions. No fines. No bans.
Stern was a lawyer. He can see this was a sham.

That's completely and utterly false.

I was openly hoping for this matter to go to trial and having MSG's and Isiah's dirty laundry aired in public. I said from the beginning that I didn't care what the outcome was.

How is 1-3 years severance, justice? That's what MSG's settlement offer was. I'm sure that offer was based on their fair sense of justice.

How is 1-3 years severance pay not justice for a termination she claimed came without warrant. Should companies beforced to keep unwanted employees forever?

Your wanting the Knicks and Isiah to look bad says a lot.

Anyway I repeat in my opinion the NBA will do nothing against Isiah and Dolan because Stern was a lawyer and will see this was a sham award.

the nba's reaction has nothing to do with what opinion stern forms on the matter. it is their POLICY to not get involved in civil actions. if isiah was found guilty on a criminal charge, you bethca stern would be in dolan's ear and isiah would be gone. again, not a matter of what stern thinks or believes, he is a lawyer and governed to act under the policies by which he runs this league. plain and simple.

I'm really looking forward to her appearance on Oprah.

The only thing better would be Starbury on Oprah.
