A cool Knicks brainteaser

[richardhutnik]

There are 82 games in the season. 73 games are losses and 9 games are wins. You are James Dolan, so it appears you are wearing a blindfold and cannot see team. Assume you are really as clueless as you appear to everyone else and can't tell heads from tails, and stand no chance of ever firing Isiah.

Your task is, being James Dolan and not ever firing Isiah, please tell how the Knicks will turn around, and how long it will take.

This was NOT in the most recent issue of IEEE Potentials magazine (although the premise is in every sports section covering the Knicks). I am pretty stumped by it. See how quickly you can figure it out!

You take 50 loses and flip them over to wins.

You "FIRE I SAY UGH"!

[seattleknick]

I got it!!! You reclassify and join the WNBA...

I'll start by selling the team....

[knicksNOTslick]

This one's easy. I start by giving Isiah a contract extension...after my band finishes our jamming sessions, now, do you mind?

Since Dolan won't fire him offer him a 20 year extension worth 1 million (50,000 per). He'll definitely quit therefore eliminating the idea of firing him. Every thing else will fall in place /Thread

Greatest Real Gm post of all time

Gas leak and massive explosion during MSG executive board meeting w/Zeke in attendance, while the team is practicing in Purchase.

Rebuilding (of both MSG and the front office personnel) begins forthwith. Team plays their games at Nassau Coliseum and goes on an inexplicable 25-game winning streak.

(Not wishing death on anyone here, really. But this is really the only way I see of getting any changes made.)

What Dolan has to do is simple. He needs to make an announcement, either people pack in Madison Square Garden or he buys up airtime and runs this commercial non-stop. -Jitpal

hope that the pick we get in the draft is another paul wade lbj type player. And pray that they were tanking the whole season on purpose. Tell thomas not to trade anymore and we will have lotto picks for the next three years until we have a good cheap lineup

What he should do is find out where the visiting team is staying hotel-wise and pump that video OVER AND OVER into their hotel rooms. It will drive them all insane, and the Knicks get on a roll.

Or he can threaten the NBA that, unless they let the Knicks win a lot more games, David Stern will have that ad broadcast every day into the corporate offices of the NBA. As a compromise, the league makes the "Alan Houston rule" permanent, and able to be applied to an unlimited number of players per team each year.

obviously, say "it cant get any worse, on the way we are picking great players from the draft, when it clicks we will have a young team with lots of potential, and isaih has proven to develop young talent."
