Knicks never fail to humor me Anonymous

"This so-called former Knick, on draft night with millions of people watching, had the audacity to take me to task on a player that I'm pretty sure he had never seen before in his life," Thomas said. "But he stands on national television and talks about a kid he has absolutely no idea about. I'm just glad that all of New York doesn't think like Greg Anthony."

"Greg Anthony should never ever be in a position to question myself on anything about basketball," Thomas said. "I do remember the kind of player he was. I'll leave it at that.

"When asked whether he could see Balkman someday defending LeBron James or Tracy McGrady, Thomas replied, "Wait a minute, hold on now ... you can run him out there but he'll probably get stepped on a little bit ... Unlike Greg Anthony, I do have respect for others."

When asked about the Knicks' dismal season a year ago, and what role all the injuries played, Thomas said, "We all were in a funk last year ... Greg Anthony was in a funk."

Later, when talking about Balkman's ability to handle the ball, a reporter jokingly asked if he had a better handle than Greg Anthony. "Most definitely," Thomas said. "Greg could only go left."

Anthony declined to comment through an ESPN spokesman."

How does Thomas still have a job? Seriously.

I used to think Thomas was a nice guy who was just bad at his job, but now I can see I was wrong. He's just a douche.

Great player, terrible business guy. "Hey Isiah, we don't like the job you're doing." ... "I'M ISIAH FUCKING THOMAS. DO NOT QUESTION ME."

So, Knicks fans, who would you like with your 2007 Number One overall pick? Or did you already trade it away?

Even if the Knicks do have the first pick, Isiah the GEEEEEEEEnius will just pick some stiff from Croatia or some high schooler who'll get arrested before training camp.

We gave it to the Bulls, seriously.

Bulls have the option to once again swap 1st round picks in 2007. Hopefully they can go deep into the playoffs and get the 1st overall pick in the draft.

We did this so we could get the softest fuck on the planet in Eddy Curry. How he can't block or rebound although he's 7 feet tall is beyond me. TRY PUTTING YOUR FUCKING HANDS UP.

Thanks Isiah.

Stop bashing Isaiah! In his time as a Knick exec, he has achieved the impossible: he made Danny Ainge look good.

I for one am thrilled that the Knicks inevitable collapse this year will at least result in the Bulls getting Greg Oden next year.
