He still has a good head of hair. At some point he mustve pirsed off the wrong person. This is probably a two way street. You cant follow a team and bash it night in and night out. Its the same thing that happens here--on nights you feel like saying this team is ridiculous(which it has been for many years) you write something like we may need more speed at that position in the future instead of straight bashing a player/coach/GM/owner. I think Dolan can understand some bashing IT etc... I think they know they deserve some. But youre playing on their turf--youre not a paying customer--your e making a good salary off their behinds. So there has to be a mesh somewhere and Isoal passed it and never made good. Maybe after 17 years he should cover someone else.

Didn't read the article but is Dolan still pulling the Uptown approach and having his Goons follow him around the arena?

Are The Knicks the only franchise in the league that requires players to be interviewed with PR reps by their side?

I'm a die hard knick fan, but I'm not blind either, I'll criticize any Knick player when they deserve it, especially since none of them are my favorite knick.

Sports IN GENARAL IS becoming just like a REALITY SHOW, only certain parts are real, most of the sht is scripted..think about it, from the refs who can completely control a game, Owners control players, and The NBA OFFICE controls the way it wants the Show to go..

Watch a international Game of basketball(not the olympics) and see how little the players complain about calls..there's a stark difference..

Im also add that, it's funny how some poster feel BREEN is bias, If he was really bias do you think he would be given a contract, do you think this franchise would put up with that..How many people have been escorted out, or flat fired for saying anything too negative about the franchise and it's high profile players,, or players in general..

Its the same reason Dolan apparently bought Newsday, because he couldn't stand the coverage and all the nasty things that were being written about him in the comments section.

I wonder if a savy agent or player could but a clause in a contract stating interviews must not be monitored or something to that effect.

Normally, I'd say Isola is full of himself, no one cares and he should stop whining. But when you consider who owns the team and that horrible incident that supposedly happened with the security guard a few weeks back, then Isola's story is well within the realm of possibility.

He did not write it BTW. Im also certain he would not quote Kurt Thomas without his opinion.

Have to remember beat writers must have trust of the players otherwise they are finished. ISola has been around longer than any other. We have read the knicks strange media policies for years now. I do believe this story, its consistent.

This is the guy who sits courtside and is at every game. Minister of propaganda.

to be honest, I don't have a problem with Dolans media policy. These hacks think they are entitled to unlimited access. When they don't get the access they want, they turn on you.

the fact that you can't even have an unrelated thread without some tool here bringing him up make me think that rational minds are few and far between. Bunch of emotionally weak, angst riddled people. I mean, how many times can you argue the same shyt

This is why I will never understand why ANYONE would ever show Jimmy Dolan any support

Its the only downfall in the Knicks finally winning a championship. But we need to win so bad there is no choice

So you think its cool to give access to those that put a positive slant on the stories?

I don't, if you stink, you stink!

There is a stench that comes from the core of MSG. Dolan and his minions have this policy to keep it contained and prevent embarrassment. The whole Larry Brown media fiasco was an embarrassment. Im not here to say Larry should not have been fired but the whole roadside press conference was pathetic. The whole posturing over his contract and if you recall the team was setting him up to challenge his contract using his media participation as an issue. It was sad. Larry got paid anyway.

Media does not embarrass the knicks, the knicks embarrass the knicks!

Durzo... why shouldnt they have unlimited access? This is part of the business. If you run a good business your transparent. When your a dodgy snake you dont like people digging and snooping around. The Knicks run their business and their team very poorly. Isola is to blame?

The issue is one of accuracy. The policy of having garden personnel assist players with their interviews is purely to make sure that reporters are kept honest in accurately reporting what the players say. It is similar to a trial situation - you would not go to trial without a lawyer to speak for you, so why should the players be subjected to hostile reporters who distort everything without assistance?

And no one is following anyone around. I think some reporters suffer from delusions of grandeur and paranoid fantasies.
