As much as I don’t like what he did to assail the Knicks franchise with his conduct, I will have him in my well wishes, ya dig?

GEE...I got a bounty on George Karl. says:

For real that is messed up. I think beyond basketball, just like many of us, he got some other ish he probably needs to get right in his life.

Hope he ain’t dead, if so hope he was living right.

wow…as much as dude totally killed his image while he was coaching the knicks this is still sad. He may have been a lil dirty but he was a badass on the court.

Are you saying that Isiah drugged and nearly killed someone else? That would fit more into his typical modus operandi…I don’t think anyone is disputing that he drugged Dolan with some crazy shit and stole millions from him.

fallinup says:

yeah control….Dolan isn’t to blame at all for killing the Knicks….AT ALL.

It’s all Isiah’s fault…I blame his dreamy eyes and the spell he put Dolan under.

Come to think of it…Scott Layden had that in his spell book too….

I guess Dolan’s main drug of choice is stupidity. I was actually liking what Isiah was doing with the Knicks, he was gathering all of the people I hate in the NBA and putting them on one team. Made it really easy. It’s a shame he didn’t manage to get SJack and Ricky Davis on the Knicks before his dreamy eyes wore off.

me says:

thats messed. after all the drama thats been around him-mind u he did cause it-hopefully he makes a full recovery doesnt try this ish again. hes still a legend in the game, u got respect what he did for it. in the last while he hasnt been conducting himself that way but u never want to see a person stuggle like that and do something ridiculous as this.

He’s almost certainly an asshole but come on gents, don’t joke at death.

That said, post 13 did make me laugh quite a lot.
