Leave it to the Knicks to make the firing of coach Don Chaney as horrible as possible: Rumors are rampant that Mike Fratello is going to be hired as coach, as Chaney shows up before practice; then right before the game, he's told he's fired, leaving security to escort him and his wife out of the Madison Square Garden. That's really not classy, even if Chaney reportedly said with relief, "I'm not coaching tonight." And we have to credit him with saying about the situation, "Life isn't fair and you have to deal with it." And to paraphrase the Times' Liz Robbins, Isaiah Thomas is all drama, all the time. Hmm, maybe Keith Van Horn will realize he isn't playing anymore when all his sneakers are mysteriously missing.
Also, it's great that all the stories about Lenny Wilkens now coaching say he's the winniest and losingest coach in NBA history. That's like getting a lawyer who loses as many cases as he wins. And tien sums it up pretty well: "Lenny Wilkens is an old, old man." information leafblower turns his attention to briefly the Knicks team: "I read some thing today that said Allan Houston hasn't had an assist or a rebound in over a week."

ha, keith van horn isn't that bad, but that would be a great way to cut a basketball player.
oh, i specifically sum it up here.
Thanks! My computer crashed last night and I don't know what I was doing after that point.
my boyfriend was fired/laid-off once - he found out because when he arrived to work after a 10-day vacation there was no computer on his desk. nice, eh?
Man, poor Don Cheney.
I have very fond memories of his days at Temple University, which he would regularly take their (chronically underfunded and under-recruited) basketball team into the quarter or even semifinals of the NCAA tournament. He was a class act and an incredibly skilled coach -- he deserved better than this.
What, has Isiah decided he's going to pick up where he left off with the Raptors?
actually, that's a different chaney...john chaney to be precise. here is his bio. he's still coaching at temple, for now anyway. some say that john chaney has to go as well.
