Because his sister is Cheryl Miller, and she has some pull since she's actually good at her job.
Some fun stats from the game: Ray Allen was +45. That has to be some kind of a record for +/-. Eddy Curry was -36.

I doubt this team will play any better under a different coach. I mean, Isiah isnt the one playing on the court right? No effort whatsoever.
Sucks seeing Malik on that abortion of a team.
Too bad they weren't playing in MSG. That would have been entertaining.
What a beautiful stat..!!!!!20.20.10.8
True. The bad part is Malik isn't the type of player who will go through the motions and just cash his check on a bad team. He still cares, which has to suck.
Although, his PER of -9 (yes, negative nine) pretty much tells you what happens when an undersized big gets old and loses his athleticism.
I will never understand one thing about Knicks:
How those players still avoiding colective suicide???!!! I mean, c'mon man, you're playing for the club from NYC, the city of bball fans!!! And you've no pride when you step on court in legendary MSG???!!!
Being from Europe, I cannot understand this. Just ask Manu and Tony what is any european court, any european fan group like... Man, we make NOISE!!!
Firing Isiah won't put the Knicks on the path the recovery because their CEO, James Dolan, is incompetent, and will continue to make disastrous decisions.
Charles Dolan is a genius and a pioneer of cable television. He founded HBO. He built a vast media empire in and around NY.
James Dolan is Tommy Boy.
When Daddy dies, James will run Cablevision into the ground if the shareholders can't stop him (his bid to privatize the company failed), and Time Warner will scoop up the remains. At that point, the idiot son will also have to unload the Knicks and the Rangers.
I figure that will take about 10 years to work itself out. In the meantime, the Knicks will continue to be an embarrassment.
It's funny, for a while I thought they were... I was thrown off by the road whites, and I thought their own crowd was rooting against them.
I came at the end of the 3rd quarter and couldn't believe the score. It made me incredibly sad. I feel bad for the hardworking players stuck in that situation.
I guess, all the knicks players just pulled a Carter on Isaiah.
Man, I don't think that I could beat the Knicks by that much on 2k8 with the settings on starter. Isiah should have been toast a long time ago. I don't know how he's managed to last this long dragging a pretty good franchise down the crapper.
Wow, I watched the 2nd half like watching a trainwreck.
What's sadder is all those people in the stands they showed wearing their Knicks Jersey's who came all the way from NYC for the game to see the "renewed rivalry." I think it has to be harder for Knicks fans to see this happen.
Isaiah's response after the loss "He's considering a lineup change." Does he really think that's what will help? Marbury is their leader which is just sad. Looking at their team on paper, they really aren't as bad as they've appeared the last couple of seasons. I think it starts with team iden y and team culture which the President and Coach failed to enforce.
You're doing it wrong!![]()
I feel bad for David Lee. I really think this guy is serious and could be one of the best scoring power forwards of the game.
David Lee, Jamaal Crawford, and Nate Robinson are the only guys I see on that team that really give an effort night in and night out.
Something she has in common with Isiah.
I saw Tim Duncan and Malik Rose together in the Shops at LaCantera parking lot back in July. I got their autographs but didn't bug them with a whole lot of questions, mainly because I could barely speak.
It's just terrible. I do blame some of the players, though, because when I was watching - there was no effort. I would have thought for sheer pride's sake they would have tried harder to break 60 and/or not let the lead creep up to 50. Good Lord, it looked in the last quarter like Boston was trying to miss shots to give them rebounds. The refs were apologetic.
The image I remember was the Knicks fan in the stands who they caught on camera taking off his jersey, throwing it in disgust and walking out.
I too thought about that game being in MSG. I said to SFIE that they would have had to issue ticket refunds on that travesty. He commented that there would have been a full-scale riot. I think he's right.
And then they bounce back hard in the 4th and hand it to the Bucks, for their third win in the last four. Go figure.
