Capn'O:
> D' finds him irritating?
So the coach, hired by the GM to lead the team's future, is "irritated" by
the presence of the previous coach, but the GM can't be bothered to
eliminate the irritation factor? This'd really boost the reputation of the
Knicks organization for future coaching staff and any serious star players,
wouldn't it?
Can you pass us some of that stuff?

Uhm, Isiah Lord Thomas III "deceiving us" is NOT the polar opposite of what
he would usually do.
