OUt of the Tunnel and into the frying pan. 19k fans screaming for his name!

Smart move: Fire Isiah, let Larry run the whole show. Plead some kinda of fiscal compromise with roster changes.

and for god sakes, Be freaking cool!

2nd smart move. Remove Dolan from any day to day. Hire Russ Granik or Stu Jax (forget his first stint) from the league offices and seek secret counsel with Stean and Colangelo Sr. on proper moves to restore this thing.

Preach a fundamental change an patience with all marketing. It won't be that bad, this team jsut needs a few tweeks and a chance to build a self respecting attitude.

Hiring Isiah will prolong insecurity and makes us prone to panic moves.

Just dump Marbury!

I don't think Dolan is a Brown fan anymore. Interesting to note that Herb Williams is not mentioned as anyone replacement. I thought Dolan, Thomas and Brown said that he was the guy to replace Brown.

what coach would want to come here after the way they treated lenny wilkens AND larry brown? basically they fired two hall of fame coaches after about one season despite the fact that there is a horrible roster, and now they're waiting for another name-brand coach to become available? isiah needs to become coach and needs to be fired as soon as possible so the roster can be completely overhauled.

Bro this is exactly what I am talkin' about......testify, brotha' can I get an AMEN?

UH BOTH LENNY AND LARRY LOST BIGTIME! Where is Lenny coaching now by the way? How come he hasn't surfaced in a top job. CUZ HE'S DONE! We've just watched Larry lose his fastball too. Like a Boxer that gets old all of a sudden, Larry is DONE! Its time for him to retire. Also Larry's work in the last few years has been questioned by more than just one NBA GM and Coach. He's a sad joke now. He blew the Olympics, was escorted out of Detroit and Now he's bitched his way out of here. Stop making it seem like he's so damn innocent. Look it was worth a shot to see if he could get it done, he failed miserably and looked lost doing it, so now he goes.

The only thing I really disagree with is Lenny losing big time. He was .500 here, he was undone by one terrible month. Lenny might be finished though, he is over 70. Larry should not be done, he still has some bullets in his gun, but I really do wonder if he has not gone a little over the edge.

Now I can agree with you. Larry Brown is a great coach, did his tactics go over the edge? Yeah probably. I still don't think its a big deal of what he said in the press but I think its a bad idea for this organization to move forward without him. I would think Larry is itching to get back next year and prove that this past year was a fallacy. I'd rather go with Brown then anyone else. Were his tactics overdramatic? Yes they were, but at the same time I think this organization needed it with the players that are here.
