Is it time to fire D'antoni

Saunders got clipped the other day, and the knicks seem to be doing horrible for the front line they have. I realise they have no point guard but does D'antoni get canned for this effort? I don't think Melo and STAT work together but I can't see Dolan giving up on either of them yet

He needs to go. He has the pieces to go deep in playoffs, but he doesn't know how to coach them properly unless it's a fast break. Make room for Dr. Phil

Knicks need defence.

Bring in the 90's boys to the coaching staff.

Ewing, Oakley and Starks. They'll be tough and hard nosed then.

Not sure how it is Mikes fault putting Carmello with Amare, gutting the entire roster and then losing. Neither guy has played much D in their careers.
They have no PG to even out the shots with quality distribution. TC has quietly surprised me, as I really expected the dreaded post contract form to occur, but he just seems to steadily improve.

The fault is squarely with the owner on this one. In a shortened season, depth in your squad is everything.

Will be interesting to see if they make a play for Nash and his wheelchair at the end of the season.

Even though he's got a tough roster to work with, D'Antoni can't even get his guys doing the basics right. I haven't seen much sign of him being a master strategist or a people manager.
