Mike D'Antoni is heading East, after all. D'Antoni, who won 253 games in less than five seasons with the Suns, has agreed to coach the Knicks.
Terms of the deal: four years and
$24 million. New York has averaged 31 wins in the past seven seasons and was 23-59 in '07-08

Seth: Fogell, this ID says that you're 25 years old. Why wouldn't you just put 21, man?
Fogell: Seth, Seth, Seth. Listen up, ass-face: every day, hundreds of kids go into the liquor store with fake IDs, and every single one says they're 21. Pssh, how many 21 year olds do you think there are in this town? It's called f*cking strategy, alright?

Funny shit.

I guess if the Knicks do well then we will be able to acknowledge that he is truly a great coach.

Not a championship winning coach tho obv

As a Heat fan I am more than happy about this...now we(the Heat) need to get Rose or Mike B so we can get back to the playoffs...

Easier to leave Phoenix than trying to get rid of Shaq.

The guy couldnt win in Phx with tons of talent, thank God the Bulls did not get this clown.

Bulls need to wait it out and go after the Spurs assistant. Forget about the re-threads, give someone who has been part of a winning program a chance.

from what I am reading, the players all want to play for him and consider him a "player's coach" (supposedly the Bulls players were texting Paxson to get him), and with that in mind, the Knicks are looking to lure King James in 2010 when he can go free. They will be under the cap by then.

Personally, I don't know if he is a championship coach, but he surely is no loser coach, and he could be stoned on pot (the killer skunky kind) AND drunk on tequila, and he'd STILL coach better than Isiah Thomas did.

well said

i've held my breath ever since i realized that firing that clown in phoenix would potentially send him to chicago

D'Antoni carries on the great tradition of fraud coaches who devise ways to win regular season games and have no clue whatsoever why their shitty regular season strategies don't work in the playoffs.

it takes a chicago fan to realize the true value of Pop's coaching staff and want one of his coaches if possible. THAT is a great idea
