    You can't really blame him...The Knicks is probably the only ship that's sinking faster than the Rockets right now...

    Pat Riley could be next...

    weird that this comes right after defeating the Bucks, one of the best teams in their conference. Camby's return was starting to turn the ship around.

    I really liked Van Gundy and I'm sad to see him go. I still remember in one of the playoff games vs the Heat when the fight broke out and he was clinging to the leg of one of the heat players (Morning I think). He was probably my 2nd favorite NBA coach.:( :(

    He's got a lot of personal issues to work out.

    Any idea on who is going to replace him for the future?

    This is bad for the knicks.
    I mean it was almost miraculous how he managed to get that team to the playoffs every year.
