Extractions: DAILY NEWS SPORTS WRITER Isiah Thomas hopes to watch Knicks improve to 3-1 under him tonight in Orlando. ORLANDO - Two months ago, Tracy McGrady's scouting report on the Knicks was to keep the game close because eventually "they're going to fold." Those words were spoken by a player whose team suffered through a 19-game losing streak this season. McGrady and the Orlando Magic also blew a 3-1 series lead to the Detroit Pistons in last year's playoffs. Based on personal experience, McGrady would seem to qualify as an expert in folding. His other area of expertise, which would be of interest to the Knicks, is his dealings with Isiah Thomas, who once made McGrady a surprise first-round pick of the Toronto Raptors. As a basketball executive, Thomas will, according to McGrady, stop at nothing to improve the Knicks. "He's going to make changes, he's going to demand a lot," McGrady told the Orlando Sentinel yesterday. "If you aren't the type of person he wants, you aren't giving the effort he wants, you just won't be there very long. He won't wait. He won't be patient. He just wants to win now." Thomas has already put the players on notice after a whirlwind week on the job. Thomas started by releasing second-round pick Slavko Vranes and shocked the team by negotiating a buyout with Clarence Weatherspoon, which could be finalized either today or tomorrow.

Extractions: DAILY NEWS SPORTS WRITER 'We're not good enough. And no one is coming to save us. This isn't a charity league. It's a very competitive league. When youre down, people want to kick you.' Isiah Thomas The only bold prediction Isiah Thomas made yesterday was that he expects a slow offseason: few trades and even fewer free agent signings. Sure. And if you honestly believe that this summer is going to be one large picnic for the Knicks president, then you've already heard the one about Thomas, Larry Bird and David Falk planning a hiking trip in Europe. Thomas and inactivity don't mesh. And neither does the Knicks roster. So if Thomas learned anything from the Knicks' 39-win season and quick playoff exit it's that the ceiling for improvement could reach the Empire State Building. "I really don't expect to do a lot," Thomas said during his end-of-the-year address. "I like what we have - you know, the youth that's in our team. We're young enough to get better. Our responsibility right now is to make the players better. The players (have) got to get better. That's the bottom line. "We're not good enough. And no one is coming to save us. This isn't a charity league. It's a very competitive league. When you're down, people want to kick you."

Extractions: Isiah Thomas: "I would love for (Bobby Knight) to mentor me the way Tex Winter was for Phil Jackson." AP DETROIT (Ticker) Isiah Thomas helped deposed Indiana coach Bob Knight win a national championship in 1981. Now he wants the legendary college coach to help him win an NBA title with the Indiana Pacers Thomas told WDFN Radio Monday that he would like to hire Knight, who was fired by Indiana University on Sunday after a legendary but turbulent 29-year career at the school. Well, he's welcome to sit on my bench at any time, Thomas said during a news conference at his own charity golf tournament. I would love for him to mentor me the way Tex Winter was for Phil Jackson. The genius that he has to give is strategically unmatched. When asked if that meant Thomas would formally offer Knight an assistant's job with the Pacers, he said, I would definitely offer him a job, yes.
Extractions: (CNNSI.com) Isiah Thomas was always closer to the smallest person on the basketball court than the tallest. "Not that I wanted to be bigger, but I wanted them to be smaller," he said. "Because if we were all the same size, I would have killed them." Fortunately, on this night, there was no need for the strong actions behind the words that became so commonplace in Detroit in the late '80s. Sports Illustrated Flashbacks

Minnesota in beating the Spurs overtook them for first in the Midwest, T-Wolve fans must be dreaming of a first round win. Best home record in the East Indiana? Good guess your right (15-4) but Milwaukee has the same record as well. How bad is the Atlantic Division? The entire Midwest Division (7 teams) would lead or be within 2 games of the lead in the Atlantic.

Vince Carter still the leading vote getter. The dunk contest needs to be Jason Richardson, Desmond Mason, and Ricky Davis tell me what NBA fan doesn't want to see that?
Basketball, Van Horn, Tim Thomas Involved In Three-team Trade is a strong frontcourt player who will help us with rebounding and interior defense, explained Knicks president of basketball operations isiah thomas. http://www.basket-ball.com/basketball-article-8129.html
Extractions: Basketball Basketball News News NBA » Van Horn, Tim Thomas involved in three-team trade NBA Streetball Retro basketball Basketball Shoes ... FORUM New York, NY (Sports Network) - Forward Keith Van Horn was traded by the Knicks to the Milwaukee Bucks Sunday in a three-team trade that brings forward Tim Thomas and center Nazr Mohammed to New York. Mohammed comes to the Knicks via Atlanta, where centers Michael Doleac from New York and Joel Przybilla from Milwaukee will be headed. In the deal, the Hawks also get a 2005 second-round pick from the Knicks, the better of the two second-rounders that New York currently owns. In 47 games with the Knicks this season, Van Horn is averaging 16.4 points and 7.3 rebounds. Thomas, who was also traded for Van Horn on draft day in 1997, is averaging 14.1 points and 4.9 boards in 42 games for the Bucks. Mohammed, who was a member of the 1998 NCAA champion Kentucky Wildcats, is averaging 6.5 points and 5.0 boards in eight seasons with the Sixers and Hawks. "Tim Thomas is a young, versatile small forward who suits our style of play very well, and Nazr Mohammed is a strong front-court player who will help us with rebounding and interior defense," explained Knicks president of basketball operations Isiah Thomas. "Although we had to part with two quality players and individuals, we felt this trade makes us better now and in the future."

Star Links SERVICES Library FactFiles Message boards What's available ADVERTISERS Published: June 6, 2001, The Indianapolis Star Isiah Thomas' rookie season as coach of the Indiana Pacers brought major transition to the franchise. With three starters gone from the team that had reached the NBA Finals, and using several players with minimal NBA experience, Thomas' team finished 41-41 and was eliminated in the first round of the playoffs by the Philadelphia 76ers. Thomas was the subject of considerable criticism during the season for juggling the lineup and his unconventional offensive approach, but he believes he and his team are on the proper course. He also appears to have the support of team president Donnie Walsh, who believes Thomas improved in the mundane aspects of coaching during his first season and showed a natural instinct for its finer points.
