Loss to Denver

Loss #7. Somewhat expected as the Knicks are on a tough road trip and played into double OT the night before and Karl's Denver team was looking forward to the Knicks for all kinds of reasons.

Yes, things look bad but quite frankly we've fallen so fast, so hard, and so ungraciously that the last thing we should do is try cleaning house now.

If Isiah gets fired it will be because of a toxic New York media and because Dolan has demonstrated himself to be a self-serving and self-immolating owner.

What should happen is this;

Larry Brown needs to be coaxed back to fulfill his original contract. The season is not lost and he Knicks can and should still make the playoffs.

Crawford, Q, Rose. and Nate need to go for expiring contracts and picks. Jeffries, Lee, and Balkman need to rehabilitate fully. Curry needs to get in shape.

Buy out Jerome James now (what could we be keeping him for?)

Collins has got to be given the reigns (let Clyde teach him the ropes). He's all we got right now and we need to keep an eye out for a purely defensive back-up point.

We need a shot-blocker (that needs to be Isiah's mission as draft consultant and talent evaluator).

Hand Jerry West the Office of President of basketball operations.

Trade ideas: Curry and Jones for Rasheed Wallace. Detroit gets a more inexpensive center and decent bench player, Knicks get shorter contract and imposing inside presence. Detroit happy to unload Rasheed, NY ready to move on.

Nate Robinson for Brevin Knight and a Clippers pick. Nate could blossom in LA, Knight could Share Point with Collins. Knicks could use the pick.

Jamal Crawford and Renaldo Balkman for Andre Miller. We need a point guard, we just do.
