Look, while the questions and critiques are persuasive...
Firing YET ANOTHER COACH, yet again, not to mention, a month into the fucking season, will not advance the team, nor it's prospects to get a top-tier coach to willingly enter the MSG Meat Grinder, nor facilitate even the ghost of a chance that any free agent worth a damn will choose to come ride in the clown car.
Those fantasizing about Mark Jackson? Clearly he would jump at the opportunity to coach the Knicks. Would he be a good choice? He might.
But in mid-crisis? Without the opportunity to participate in the draft process? Or free agency and summer league? Or to get his system in place during July-August-September or to select his own lieutenants.
It would appear Dolan's Assaholic Kulture is exceeded only by that of Knicks FANS.
Oh, and we are in the post-Philly TOTAL TANK EPOCH, where having the worst record does naught to enhance our shot at the #1 prospect.
Hey, if I had a signed affidavit from Jehovah that another systematic tank job would net us Wiseman, I might be persuaded to apply the old Saudi bone saw to Fizz...least ways book him passage on a Carnival Cruise...still...
Firing Fizz accomplishes what, exactly? Besides satisfying the blood lust of Knicks fans? Elevating an assistant as a solution? Given, there is a precedent for pulling the plug on something clearly gone south, such as when Nellie was shit canned in favor of JVG. But that was a case of the coach blowing off his #1 player (that Ewing Fellow) in favor of his own enigmatic style of hoops. And firing The Fisher King to elevate Rambis wasn't exactly a brainstorm, save if you admired the way that bespectacled douche obsequiously force fed our conscripts the triangle or went out of his way to publicly denigrate and humiliate Jimmer, who had dutifully done his work and been a good soldier at Westchester?
Anyway, knock yourselves out folks.
