PreGame: Nets vs Knicks
Perhaps the last meaningful game of the season. But impacting a rival's chances of making the playoffs doesn't seem to motivate Isiah Thomas.
"I don't take much solace in being a spoiler," Isiah said before the game. "I'd rather be on top."
OK, like you're really interested in any of this.
Here's the key quote from Donnie Walsh's news conference today to announce he is leaving the Indiana Pacers after 24 years. Doesn't sound like he wants to settle into retirement right away.
"I did spend one weekend where I went home and thought, 'OK, I'm going to sit here like I'm retired' and I thought I was going to jump out of my skin. That's one reason why I have developed some options, see where they go and see if I'm going to continue to do this or not. I haven't made that decision all the way."
Walsh's plan is to stay with the Pacers through the end of the season. Now do the Knicks wait or do they make the next move?
Or do they make any move at all?
