Axe has fallen at the Garden

Saw something scrolling across the bottom of the screen during NASCAR Now on espn2 saying that Zeke has been told he won't be returning as the Knicks coach.

And before I could finish that sentence, Chris McKendry said the same thing on SportsCenter.

Never saw this one coming.

[blue]I thought Zeke was just getting ready to help the Knicks turn the corner!

 

Re: Axe fell at the Garden?

Insane. Just providing disgruntled players (or others) a readily-accessible crying shoulder when the new coach and/or GM starts doing things all different than they've been done in the past. As well as a handy "inside source" for embarassing media leaks for the new regime.

If Walsh is smart, he tells Dolan he wants Isiah Thomas gone, fired, terminated, banished, sent out of town once and for all, no matter what it costs.

 

Re: Axe fell at the Garden?

So... you're saying he shouldn't be back?

 

Re: Axe fell at the Garden?

I say this every time the topic comes up....if one of us suuuuuuuuuucked at our job, then cost our employer an $11 million sexual harassment suit, we would be gone, gone, gone. He's gotta have pictures of James Dolan screwing a horse...something you would pay $11 million to keep away from people.

Maybe Walsh is doing it as a public service so Thomas won't screw something else up. And by that I mean anything else up, anywhere, as in, the entire globe.

Give Thomas a job in the organization, say, Senior Vice President Of Tapping Secretary Ass and the whole world is helped by isolating him in his element.

Walsh is doing this to help society as a whole. MSG can be like Zeke's Gitmo, in the best possible way.

James Dolan screwing a horse. That's an image I didn't need. Thanks Bill.

 

Re: Axe fell at the Garden?

I've got $50 that says HB's got half a stock because of this news.

 

Yep, he's done.

He's done as coach, but like the cancerous lesion he is, he's not completely gone.
