You have a ultimatum on your job. You would think he would play the guys that give him the best chance for winning. Steph isnt getting it done, Frye had his best game last night and shot 7-17 for a sizzling 41%. Does he really think he can win with the lineup he is putting out there every night? He makes no adjustments, put in Lee and Nate for the frantic run and goes back to the midget lineup that hasnt finished a game all year. The only good thing that can happen is he will be fired by XMAS. The bad thing is Dolans short list is Dick Motta, Bill Fitch, Bill Russell, and Gene Shue. Play Francis instead of Steph, calm Jamal, down and make Frye tougher and this team can win some games soon. Is IT smart enough to do that?

Honestly I would Bench Curry.... I think its key if you want to win NOW... his defense just doesent cut it - Frye is a center and Lee is our beste rebounder so heres my lineup

Steph
Jamal
Q Rich
Lee
Frye

With Nate playin big minutes off the bench and CUrry at backup center... thats right.. Curry at backup center.

Isiah is in a tough position with trying to get the team to win, but doing so with the guys that he mortgaged the future with. Wins don't keep his job safe if Curry and Steph are not a big part of it.

In one of Dolan's rare moments of clarity, he said it perfectly. Isiah made his bed, now let him sleep in it.

Wow to Dolan's short list. Were you being sarcastic or is that really his short-list? If you're not being sarcastic then us Knicks fans are in a ton of trouble.

The short list is letting Herb be interim coach. Hell he can even coach them next year too. The important thing is getting a good GM in here after Isiah. They can't have another inept GM follow an inept GM.

I'd go after key personnel guys from the top teams. Offer RC Buford a ton of money and see if he'll come here.

Shave a dogs belly and put him in a small kennal so he won't like lying in his own piss. Thats how you train a dog to be housebroken, and reassign your GM/President for constructing a 122 million dollah payroll!
