The Knicks will announce today that Isiah Thomas will be returning to the team as a consultant.  Mike Francesca reported this on his daily talk show earlier today.


Personally I think this is a bad move.  The man is a good evaluator of talent but the Knicks have moved on to a new era and there is no need to go backwards as Thomas should be nowhere near this team.

Why make this its own thread? It's just going to be Knicks haters laughing at the organization for such a minor move.

Keep it in the Knicks thread so people don't overreact.

Fixed.

Knicks fans have no control over the slobbish moron who is in control.  Obviously it's concerning that he's back at all with the organization, but hopefully it's Dolan just throwing him a bone and not a signal that he'll make his way back in.

That would be the last straw for a lot of us.

Something just doesn’t smell right about the latest news involving Isiah Thomas. It’s rather fishy, if you ask me.

The Knicks rehired Thomas today as a consultant after firing him as coach and team president two years ago. That’s weird in itself, given the disaster that was Zeke’s reign in New York culminated in a sexual harassment that cost MSG more than $11 million.

The really odd twist is that Thomas as staying on as coach at Florida International. Thomas said he’ll an evaluator of talent and recruiter for the Knicks. Well, that’s already part of his job with the Golden Panthers, who were 7-25 in Thomas’ first season. Performing those duties for an NBA team as well possibly sets up some serious conflicts of interest.

The league office is definitely interested in this unique arrangement having an NBA employee directly coaching NCAA athletes.
