Ladies and gentlemen, this man — this guy — has been rewarded for the job he has done over the last three years. Larry Brown has been fired, and Isiah Thomas — Isiah Thomas! — will take over as coach and general manager.

We all saw it coming, of course. But boy, we suddenly cannot wait for the NBA season to start again.

We're gonna just let you take it over from here.

Brown Fired, Isiah Hired [InsideHoops]

(UPDATE: You know, this news actually makes us feel bad for the folks at Sell The Knicks.)

(SECOND UPDATE: The Knicks are actually refusing to pay Brown for the remainder of his contract. You have to be kidding.)
