i can't wait to see company men Alan Hahn and Al Trautwig and Mike Breen try to spin this tonight. i might watch just for that and to see Melo get booed.
where's Isles? doesn't he get to go up to 10000 posts now?

I think Hahn and especially Breen are pretty fair.

If u believe what u read Isiah's GM was tied to the hips to MDA...
If you believe what u read Melo demanded a trade if D'Antoni wasn't fired and also didn't demand a trade and supported D'Antoni.
Don't believe all of what you read...
I would love to know who was behind the same story that 4 writers put out on the same day....

CAA - Worldwide Wes and Leon Rose. They were protecting their brand and forcing Dolan's hand.

Isola said in an interview that MDA started all this weeks ago with Melo in the press....He went out and said he didn't remember Melo suggesting playing Lin...He went out his way to make it seemed like Melo was lying...It turned out to be true that Melo did indeed suggest him playing Lin...

Wow...is that true?
Yup, google all their names and their Indiana team photo for 1979-80 shows up :)

Im guessing he did not have sit down with Melo to let him(melo) know how he wanted him to play. Instead he goes to the media and praises everyone else but the 2 players that everyone knows is going to win this battle at the end. So hit the road jack.
LMAO... Hell yeah, man! Don't worry, MDA is in the rear view mirror now.
There will be some tears and whining from the MDA fan club, but now they have to suck up the reality now, too. It';s time that we all move on.

Heh...
The thing is, the guys supporting MDA were always the ones facing reality.
It's the Melo nuthuggers that will have a strong shock of reality soon enough. I can't imagine who you will blame when things are not going so well.

Reality is unknown for the moment but sure let us see what happens with this team. I just want the team to win as I am a knick fan like most of us here.
^ that's who Dolan will blame. because it won't be himself or melo.
I was not a fan of D'Antoni, but was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt when the Knicks started playing better when Lin emerged. I started to think he needed to be replaced again when the end of the Celtics game unfolded as it did. The Knicks should have won that game, but D'Antoni showed extremely poor coaching decisions which resulted in the loss. I am glad he is gone.

LOL... another one for the sticky trap. 
I'm all about the team, bruh. Always have been. Now that MDA is gone. will all of the Pro-MDA fanatics only remain here to throw salt on the Knicks as a team? I sincerely hope that you all are better than that, but then again, some cats get off on just being site-wide cynical antagonists.
Most would consider that trolling, though, but it's all good. The rest of us can find a way to appreciate the comic relief after we've moved on and continue to root for our team. 
Woodson's only a short-term solution, but I guess that those who are butthurt over MDA's departurte will reach for the stars when looking for something negative to say about the Knicks now. Good luck with that- I'll be looking forward to the positives that will come from MDA finally being kicked- oh, that's right- I should say "KICKING HIMSELF"- to the curb.
GO KNICKS! Laterz, Haterz!
FINALLY!!!! MDA was a classy guy but his style of coaching (i.e. NO DEFENSE) would have never got us a ring. BYE MDA!!!

why did they hold ten straight opponents under 100pts while melo was out?
that hadn't been done by the knicks since 2001.
their defense was great without melo.
saying this year's team played bad defense is a completely uninformed stance. even with melo, they've been a top ten defensive team all season.

Beacuse MDA haters are still rehashing arguments against him from 2005.
They just don't like the guy.

Chandler and JJ are a great defensive pairing - JJ going down killed us defensively and could have contributed alot to all this losing. MDA did a better job defensively this year.
I don't THINK he was ever better than 15th in any other year.
