NEW YORK - A jury has found that Isiah Thomas and Madison Square Garden sexually harassed a former New York Knicks executive.
The only thing that hasn't been determined yet is who's liable for what part of any punative damages. They haven't said whether it's coming out of Dolan's pocket or Isiah's.
And even if Thomas takes the fall for this, Dolan isn't going anywhere.

You realize you just implied "competency", "restraint" and "fiscal awareness" in a sentence regarding the Knicks, right?
EDIT 2 hours later: I actually wanted to say at first that the dreaded VOTE OF CONFIDENCE would come within two hours from this post and I should have gone with my gut, because MSG just released a statement saying most emphatically 1) they're appealing the case and that even more emphatically that 2) Isiah is absolutely 100% not going to fired.
Which of course means he'll be fired within two months if not sooner.
