Could either the Nets or the Knicks convince Donovan to return to his New York-area roots? Yeah, Isiah Thomas got a contract extension -- but he could easily slide over just to handle the GM job.

Imagine Donovan -- the Rockville Centre native and former Knick guard (under Pitino) ---- coming back to coach in the Big Apple?

^ That would be awesome! Then we could watch Dolan/Thomas humiliate and fire another coach! I f'n love it when they do that. This time, they could have him cuffed and frog marched from the garden. Dolan/Thomas: Get it done!

I hate Florida but Billy Donovan is a damn good coach. I certainly would not be adverse to bringing him into the Garden, Isiah is a decent coach but he's nothing special. Donovan would be great for this team. I'd rather Isiah was fired all together but if he had to slide back to the GM role than so be it.

It is not happening. IT is not leaving the bench until: a) he is fired, or b) the Knicks have substantial success so that he can make a going out on top switch like Pat Riley contemplated (and no, the surpassing 23 wins is not the substantial success I am talking about).

Isiah would only leave one of his cronies on the bench.
