Captain Knick: 5 Reasons To Get Excited About The Knicks

nyk_lead.jpg
One way or another, the Knicks will blow up this year!

It’s been a long off-season for the New York Knicks and their number one supporter, Captain Knick (they get considerably longer when you’re eliminated from playoff contention a month into the season). After hiring new General Manager Donnie Walsh and replacing disgraced Coach and Chief Executive Officer of Sexual Harassment and Xenophobia Isiah Thomas with former Phoenix Suns coach Mike D’Antoni, there’s reason to believe something better is in store for the Big Apple.

Look, the preseason hasn’t even begun and already the Knicks are tied for first place! Before they lose a game and the shine wears off, check out five reasons Cappy is amped for the ‘08-’09 season…

Captain Knick: Isiah Thomas Gets Shafted By New Post

isiahthomas_main.jpg
If recently fired ex-President of Basketball Operations Isiah Thomas’s new position with the Knicks actually had a title, his business card might read “Assistant to the Assistant to the Deputy Knicks Janitorial Assistant, Siberia Division.”

In March 2007, the head of Cablevision, James Dolan, gave Thomas a midseason multiyear contract extension because he’d already won a whopping six more games than Larry Brown, whose Knicks team had matched the franchise’s shittiest record ever one year prior. Regardless of the fact that he’s since failed to make the playoffs twice, matched that same shitty 23-59 record, splintered the team he’d assembled, and embarrassed MSG with a sexual harassment lawsuit, the money is all Zeke’s. But rather than simply pay him his money to leave, new Knicks President Donnie Walsh has given Thomas a rather unfortunate post.

Out of concern that he might further taint the franchise he guided to a 56-108 overall record (or literally try to get female employees to touch his taint), Walsh made Thomas a title-less scout/advisor. He reportedly has no office and is not allowed to speak to players. He reports to Walsh but absolutely nobody reports to him—especially nobody with a vagina, or even guys who have man-tits. It’s all pretty embarrassing for a onetime NBA superstar. After the break, Complex revisits a shameful moment in Zeke’s life that, relatively speaking, he should be proud of.
