Another nail in the coffin of Isiah Thomas

This is a lesson in what not to do if you work in NYC and are the President/Head coach/GM of a sports team. Especially if you happen to work right in the middle of Manhattan. There is no escape now. Isiah Thomas has signed his own death certificate.

Isiah keeps on fanning flames

Thomas takes shot at Garden crowd's basketball IQ

Isiah Thomas cautioned reporters yesterday not to turn the Knicks' season into a battle of wills between the embattled head coach and the team's disgruntled fan base. But it may be too late.

The fans already have started chanting "Fire Thomas," and Thomas didn't help himself after practice yesterday when he said that Wednesday's crowd at Madison Square Garden had the wrong take on the Knicks' 113-102 loss to Washington.

"I can't expect them to understand the game the way I understand it or see it the way we see it," Thomas said. "It's better that the punishment is given to myself than to the players. The players got to think and move free and perform. We had a good day today."



OMFG he actually says "we had a good day today." Are you kidding me Isiah??? Your team got thoroughly THRASHED by a team, who, before they had played the Knicks, were 0-8 on the road!!! Thats right, ZERO WINS AND EIGHT LOSSES!!! Hello??? And then he has the balls to say the fans don't know what they're talking about and shouldn't boo because Washington was on fire hitting all their shots. Well DUMMY of course they were on fire because your team plays NO DEFENSE!!!

Why does it ALWAYS happen to the Knicks?? Bad defensive teams have games like that, good ones don't, and it is your fault Isiah Thomas for building a team filled with players who, either don't understand defense, or just don't want to do the necessary work that is required to play good defense in the NBA. It's sickening and whats really bothersome is Isiah just doesn't get it. He thinks Knicks fans who pays HUNDREDS and even THOUSANDS of dollars PER TICKET for ONE game should be happy watching their team get blown out at home game after game after game. Maybe the fans would cut the Knicks some slack, but unfortunately that isn't going to happen because this team hasn't won a playoff game since 2001!!!!!!!! Granted Isiah has only been here since the end of 2002, but he hasn't won as GM or coach.

Good riddance Isiah Thomas, the end can't come soon enough. And please take Towelbury errr Stephon Marbury aka Stiffbury errr I mean "Starbury" with you!!!
