If Isiah was writing a column instead of screwing up the Knicks, he would probably write the same thing.

You may like Pippen or not, but only kool-aid drunk people can fail to see that he is right and that while our trading partners always get better, we keep sinking in futility. This was a deal that made no sense and that just took us 3 more years away from actually building up a real team. This isn't about having talent, its about having real basketball players willing to buy into a vision and working hard to play their roles the best way. We think that by making trades like Rose's or Francis' we will someday play better. Thats not having a plan. This isn't NBA Live, this is the real game where chemistry, intelligence and character really matter. We keep acquiring the same kind of players, only to become a worse team. Too many individuals who know nothing about fundamentals.

I have completely lost my faith in Isiah...

If I were an obscenely rich man, one thing I would do would be to pay Xavier McDaniel to just follow Scottie Pippen around wherever he goes. Not to say or do anything to him, just to have him stand there so Scottie can see him out of the corner of his eye at all times. That would be great.
