And yes you may be right that the Walsh thing may not be started out well but it is too early to tell. They should have interviewed more candidates though but Dolan hired Walsh out of spite.

Ewing should get the assistant position – he has 4 years experience, is the greatest Knicks of all time and is ready. I’ll be pissed if Jackson gets the head spot but not really because he will probably be fired. The Knicks will got through at least 2 more coaches before they get good again.

You don’t have to be a brain to coach basketball. If you’re ready and organized, you can do really well. Although Jackson has no coaching experience whatsoever so making him the number 1 choice is a joke!

IMO Shaq can’t shoot FTs (or jump shots) because his hands are too big — if you want to get the idea, try shooting basketball style yourself, with a softball or tennis ball.

I’d guess he would be much more successful shooting underhand, but he just doesn’t want to do it because it seems embarrassing.

Dear God, speaking of the brain trust referred to inclusive of Mark Jackson and Patrick Ewing as coaches, now Kenny Smith is being considered for the GM position. Am I being overly parenoid and sensitive, or has the Donnie Walsh Era not exactly started off perfectly?

Danis:

Shaq broke his wrist when he was young. thats why he has a weird hitch in his ft stroke.

that’s funny, since they changed the rules on zone defense solely because of Shaq’s dominance. but yeah, you can’t do anything about this and you shouldn’t. it’s part of the game.

now this flopping bullshit, I’d love to see that legislated against. maybe the league office could study video of the biggest offenders and start handing down suspensions after a certain number of obvious flops, like they do with flagrant fouls.

i agree, but like the commentators were saying – you can’t change league rules because someone has a weakness. Shaq should have learned to shoot ft’s after 30 years of basketball.

the nba seriously needs a solution to the hack-a-shaq gameplan. watching shaq take 6 ft attempts in the 1st qtr due to hack-a-shaq makes this game hard to watch.
