What if he gracefully bowed out? If he licked his lips, smiled and said "I'm sorry knick fans, I've been a terrible coach and my ability to put together a good team just didn't work out the way I thought initially."
Seriously and honestly, would you forgive him?

No, he ruined 4 years of me rooting for this team through thick and thin with bonehead moves that are being felt now. Naw i'm good.

Yeah man, growing up in the 90's during the Ewing era then watching Isiah's "reign", it hasn't exactly been good. Frankly, I can't even bring myself to post here anymore.

I'd forgive him if he bowed out. I kinda feel sorry for him for building this crappy team.

forgive? No.
But I would maybe MAYBE be able to have a shred of respect.

YES!
I would forgive him but I would never forget the incident. He'd be admitting to his mistakes and it only shows that he truly tried to build the team up but failed.
I bet the current Isiah apologists wouldn't forgive him, it would just be an excuse they would add to their ladder.

I would thank him for Nate and Lee and never look back. I'd hate him much less, but you can't just forgive him. He's been here 4 years and has done basically nothing....and the new GM will still have to deal with the problems he'll leave behind.
