SocraticGadfly: Is Isiah wrecking the Knicks again?

Is Isiah wrecking the Knicks again?

Having read recently that he's been pushing New York Knicks owner James Dolan to fire GM Donnie Walsh, I'll assuming Isiah Thomas is behind the team's clusterfuck trade for Carmelo Anthony.

It's pretty clear, per Yahoo, that the final trade package offering is all Isiah's idea. And, one that will simply gut the Knicks, especially if the salary cap gets lowered.

Over at ESPN, Ian O'Conner vehemently disagrees, claiming this is a short-term and a long-term win for the Knicks. Really? Trading one-third your roster plus three draft choices for someone who's never gone past the first round of the playoffs and can't play defense better than anybody else left on the Knicks is good?
