Of NYs 8 starters how many get axed before the 09 season?

I thought Walsh was smart? Knicks are hamstrung with all those big ticket doofus' and they pay through the nose for a coach that won't make a difference?? Better off getting a guy from the DLeague for 2 years.

D`Antoni`s style is not suitable for the current Knicks roster, is it?

Furthermore, this is the EC!

Bup-Bup made it a practice to own Nash and D'Antoni. But since he knows Starbury maybe he can get him to earn his $20M salary.

Since his style is different, the Knicks will have to force terrible trades in a desperate attempt to get him players that can score, but can't play any defense... actually, now that I put it that way, maybe their roster is suitable.

From Zeke to D'Ant the Knicks got to be going out of their minds.
D'Ant to players: Forget everything Zeke taught you.
Players: F'...........

Terry Porter is interviewing with the Suns says ESPN.

Quote:

The Phoenix Suns have begun their coaching search in earnest by interviewing Detroit Pistons assistant coach Terry Porter.

Suns president Steve Kerr told ESPN.com that he flew in and out of Detroit on Thursday to meet with Porter, his former teammate for two seasons in San Antonio.

Porter, who posted a 71-92 record in a two-season stint as Milwaukee's head coach from 2003-05, is believed to the first to formally meet with the Suns.

Hmm...maybe they would like to talk to our head coach instead?

Just TP, he didn't think Cowens or Curry were good enough to interview?

Great one. Flip might be the better fit. Then again, I'd want him to take Porter with him. Cowens should be the new figurehead with Lindsey and Michael Curry calling the shots.

I heard when Terry Porter boarded the plane, he was overheard saying "This Homey ain't coming back to Detroit."

If I recall, he was right about that when he was with Portland, but it didn't work out quite the way he thought it would !
