The debacle we call the NY Knicks has kicked off it's season. I think the most interesting thing about this season is going to be how they react to Isiah Thomas's offseason troubles. At some point you have to wonder how much Jim Dolan is going to allow Thomas to drag his team down even more.
Thomas is smart enough to know that winning resolves all problems but I don't think he realizes that some problems prevent winning. His off-the-court antics have created so many issues for the Knicks in and out of the court room that this team might be beyond repair. I think they will challenge for a playoff spot right up until the end of the season before the fade away.
After saying all this, I hope I am wrong. I was actually a pretty big fan back in the days of Ewing, Oakley and Starks but after seeing the team turn into a three ring circus, I lost interest. Maybe the cast of David Lee and Jamal Crawford can bring back some of the excitement.
