NEW YORK - Isiah Thomas was fired as coach of the New York Knicks on Friday after a season of listless and dreadful basketball, a tawdry lawsuit and unending chants from fans demanding Thomas’ dismissal.

Thomas, the coach for two seasons, will remain with the organization reporting directly to new president Donnie Walsh, a rapid fall for Thomas who also was team president a little more than two weeks ago.

Walsh said he informed Thomas of the decision Friday.

1. What I want to know is, what took them so long?

Didn't the regular season (known to the Knicks simply as "the season") end the other day? I'd have waited just long enough for the final horn to sound before yelling "Isiah, you're fired!".

2. Good. n/t

to go to the next round,
it's been a great night.
