Rhoden Goes To The Defense Of Zeke -- Whatta Shock

The ship ain't be sinking. The ship be sunk.

 

While it certainly is true that the Knicks franchise was fucked up from stem to stern well before Isiah arrived, he didn't "add another log to the fire," he backed up a tanker truck full of high-octane jet fuel and turned on the fire hose.

And of course special mention must be made of his dumbest move, hiring Larry Brown, who in an attempt to prove Isiah and Dolan were idiots (like any additional evidence of this was necessary) and in his usual spiteful hissy-fit manner when the front office does not instantly accede to all his trade demands (to totally revamp a roster he had already OK'd), basically tanked an entire season. They would have been fucking horrible if everybody was trying to win; understandably they were worse than horrible when the head coach was actively tanking.

But once again, who hired Larry Brown? Isiah Thomas.


Rhoden's column defines imbecility.

 

Ya gotta love those Knicks.

 

I'm shocked you didn't find a way to blame Larry Brown for the BP oil spill.

 

The trades that Zeke made for Stephon Marbury and Eddy Curry set the Knicks back 10 years.

 

One day I hope to find out what Larry Brown did to Starman. Good god, does he ever hate that guy. Irrational, over the top, blinding hate any time any story drifts anywhere close to Brown's fingerprints.

 

Pretty easy to see what's happening here.

Stern steered Walsh to the Knicks, for obvious reasons. Dipshit Jimmy agreed to it, either b/c he'd already deluded himself into thinking the Knicks would land a couple huge free agents in 2010 or b/c someone told him Walsh's presence could help that happen. That didn't happen (sorry, Stoudemire doesn't count). Now Dipshit Jimmy figures, well, we tried it your way, now we'll go back to doing it my way. Come back Isiah.

Talk about a couple assholes who deserve one another.

 

This is more total idicoy by Dolan the idiot:

On balance, he did far more harm than good.

We all know what Dolan is.

We all know what Zeke is.

Stern went out of his way to try to set things in the right direction w/Walsh,
because it's the Knicks, and the league hums along much better when the Knicks
are at least decent.

But Dolan could screw up a one-car funeral, especially with the Little Weasel's
"aid".

Helpless, hopeless and chanceless, until the Dolans sell. Don't hold your breath.

 

Do the right thing Donnie. Walk out on their asses. Dolan just showed how much he doesn't give a shit about you and what this organization needs to do to succeed.

Little Jimmy's either arrogant prick who gets his way, or Isaiah must have the best blackmail photos and information ever known to mankind.

Prediction: the biggest ticket in MSG and NY this winter won't be the Knicks or the Nets.

It'll be Steve Lavin and St. John's.
