Is Walsh the Answer

Last week the New York Knickerbockers hired former Indiana Pacers president, Donnie Walsh to be in charge of all basketball operations and in hope of finally getting on the right track towards being an elite team again. Walsh takes over a mess of an organization that has had four coaches while Isiah Thomas was calling the shots for the Knicks. With the hiring of Walsh the Knicks are looking to have some stability in the front office and are also hoping to get under the salary cap without taking on any ridiculous contracts. Walsh has an interesting situation with his head coach because he's pretty much handcuffed with the situation. Should he fire Thomas after the season? Well, for most New Yorkers and Knicks fans alike, they would love to see Thomas to be shown the door, but on the other hand he signed a four year extension last year so once again the Knicks would have to eat the remaining year and money that is owed to him. Once Walsh decides to either get rid of Thomas or to find a fresh face to coach the team, he has to realize these bunch of players aren't going to take him anywhere. He must let them play out their existing contracts or hope that some team would be willing to take pity and take any of those worthless players in. One Walsh figueres out what to do with the players and personnel and he lays down the blueprint for success, it is going to be up to him on whether or not he could clean up arguably the biggest mess in NBA history.
