The New York Knicks continue to embarrass the city and their organization. There are reports that New York owner James Dolan is going to buy out Larry Brown as their head coach for approximately 40 million dollars. He was upset with the way Brown would openly criticize the players and the terrible record this past year.
The rumor is that Isiah Thomas will become the new head coach to replace Brown. This is an amazing turn of events. Brown is a good coach and needs a chance to form his own team. The fact that Dolan would allow Thomas to coach the terrible team that he formed is exactly why the Knicks will be holding up the bottom of that division for quite some time. Isiah has never been a successful general manager or coach, but teams continue to give him an opportunity. The fact someone was a great player does not automatically make them a good coach.
