    So do you think Tmac is going to have a huge contract with the Knicks??

    I bet Isiah can do that, and it would be great!! (For the rockets obviously)

    I was assuming they Knicks owed Isiah money and hired him as a consultant so they can pay him to do nothing.

    The late Chuck Daly once said that Isiah had that ability to get fired from a 3M job and get hired by someone else for 6M. Doesn't surprise me, he has an incredible Midas touch despite a rather dubious track record of accomplishments there is someone out there willing to take the chance of paying the guy millions to screw up your team.

    This is bad news. Isiah gives them their best chance at being the #30 team in the league.

    Another ESPN article about this:

    Commish should nix Knicks-Isiah pact

    I especially liked the opening quote

    "The New York Knicks are paying a college basketball coach to help them recruit players, and there are 29 competing NBA teams that likely see this arrangement as an unfair competitive advantage -- in their favor.

    Executives from those 29 competing NBA teams might've popped a hammy or two racing for the champagne when word came that Isiah Thomas is back as James Dolan's not-so-secret weapon in the ever-escalating arms race for talent
    ."
