Well the Knicks can officially pack it in, they are a bottomless pit, so much wasted money tied up on Brown and other horrible fitting players.

Now the worst GM in the league is coaching again..good god.

 

[The George]

dont understand why the didnt give him another year but hey its the Knicks so I am not surprised....

 

[TheAdmin]

man, he was fired, that means no buyout. They straight up gave him 40 million to just leave.

Yeah lol Larry Brown earned as much money via buyouts as most players do on max contracts.

 

[RuanuLaw]

ahahahah, I knew Larry Brown was overrated...and it showed!

 

[TrueCavsFan23]

always hated larry brown.

I see Isiah Thomas is trying to do what Pat Riley did and hopes to get the same outcome. :chuckles:

 

[cdt]

Fact is he forgot to make moves :chuckles:

What a shocker......Man what I wouldn't give to be Larry Brown, I would love getting fired $40 million I'm happily gone

 

[Smooth]

It was only a matter of time...

Is it me or does Ferry look like a genius right now by not hiring him?

 

[Dungong]

Wow, let Isiah coach the team, THATS the way to fix it. Hes a horrible GM, maybe if we give him some coaching responsibilities, he won't have the time to make as many bad trades. I wonder if Ferry can make a trade for this year's Knicks first rounder. I bet they'd do it for Drew Gooden and Luke Jackson...

 

[The Oi]

Uhhhh...I'm not so quick to jump on the "Larry Brown is over-rated bandwagon" bandwagon here.

Isiah Thomas is a complete idiot as a GM and Larry Brown has done nothing but impress me and those who matter throughout his entire career as a coach.

Ahaha Larry Bronze!

I hated this fool ever since he benched Mello & Bron in the Olympics and got us the bronze medal.
