Via b/r

will post full story later

 

[Iceman]

5 year $25 mill.  Crazy

 

[buzzy]

Gonna be just as weird seeing him on the sidelines as it was with Kidd.

"To convince you to stay with us Carmelo, we've gone ahead and hired a coach with no coaching experience."

Battle of New York:

Kidd.

...Wut WHYYYY

 

[Thomas-Panda-Saxby]

Now let's just sign Bynum and Gasol. Then Trade for Kobe and we got the old Lakers -_-

Good for fish. Really happy for him, hope he makes a good coach

And believe it or not, 5/25 isnt even his highest contract lol
Warriors gave him 6/37

With he and brian shaw already coaches, the next laker pg coach should be tyronne lue eventually, and maybe steve nash


Oh and he can thank steve kerr for that 5/25
Kerr changed the market for first time coaches and now established college guys are going to want even more

Nobody wants to see Jason Kidd slaughter Derek Fisher 1 on 1 haha

Don't sleep on Fish. He is still in game shape lol.

I feel like Fisher is gonna suck.
 
Also why I questioned Phil as the president. Was after guys he was familiar with, and not necessarily the best candidates.

 

[Mexi]

Who's to say they werent the best candidates though
Youve even said in the past youd rather have new blood than retreads

 

[elcheato]

I would, but I don't think Fisher is going to be good. Doesn't strike me as a guy who can be innovative. Could be wrong
 
Kerr is different though. Has experience in the front office, between the two I'd go with him

 

[Mexi]

I just have no idea what makes you think fish will suck lol

Hes always been a leader

Maybe he'll suck, but we have absolutely no idea
He was a thrifty player if that means anything
Worked his tail off

 

[BwareDWare94]

New blood isn't the way to go when you're giving him nothing to work with. This Knicks roster is a bunch of pieces from different puzzles. 

 

[elcheato]

See, I don't view him as a leader. Yea, he's been on a lot of great teams, but I would never view him as a leader.

money talks though.

 

[elcheato]

Didnt even answer 3 of those questions. What a dick

 

[Iceman]

He is thrown right in the spotlight too, by being with the Knicks.  If doesn't make a run in the playoffs in the next 2 years, they will probably dump him!

i didnt think fish wanted to coach a few years ago too
