AGENT ZERO & PATRICK EWING?

All is quiet on the Knicks' front, and I'm bored: so I'm thinking...

Lets start with the obvious: FIRE ISIAH. Personally, I'd like to see Jerry Colangelo as the Prez/GM. If not Colangelo, ANYONE will (probably) be an upgrade. Next, whoever is brought in as coach should have some experience in my opinion. Atlanta's Mike Woodson is next to get the axe after Isiah, and despite that would be a good fit given what he's done with the young Hawks. Del Harris should also be considered. I know the fancy names of Marc Jackson and Greg Anthony have been thrown around looking for the next Avery Johnson, but that's asking for more doom. Most people forget Johnson coached under Don Nelson before taking the reigns himself. Bring Marc Jackson AND PATRICK EWING on as assistant coaches.

Lets say Gilbert Arenas declines his option, which is unlikely, unless Washington prefers he declines. It MIGHT possible to sell him on New York, bringing the Knickerbockers back to the limelight of the NBA, all the endorsements, everything that comes with all that, endear him on being able to prove "it's not all about the money" and convince him to take a short 3-4 year exemption @ about $6-7 with the promise of a max extension afterwards.
