New York — Isiah Thomas
Team needed: A slew of talented bigs. To get rid of expensive dead wood. A true point guard. A new coach who can turn chicken crap into chicken salad. A discernible blueprint for success.

Team got: Jerome James, bloated body with a bloated salary. In Eddy Curry, a potent scorer who doesn't rebound, play defense or pass. Jamison Brewer, a journeyman point guard. Larry Brown, a very good coach who believes all the good things said about him … and none of the bad.

Job evaluation: Zeke is still a sucker for the latest and greatest thrill.

Grade: C-




This is getting rediculous. People ask me why I'm the shill for the Knicks and I tell them it's because nobody else wanted the job.

Seriously, do people really ask you why you're the shill for the Knicks?

we won 33 games and added a ton of guys with ??? marks. Only wins will change this.

That was just my sick sense of humor had me saying that. Wait a minute you the one that called me a shill.

Any article that cites Jamison Brewer as an addition but fails to mention Quentin Richardson loses any sort of credibility with me and shows that the author has no idea what he's talking about.

we added three starters from 50 win teams and a top three coach and had one of the better drafts in the league.

This writer is obviously oblivious to how much his "grading process" reveals about himself.
