He might not have said it but mardy collins knew that Isaiah wanted that. Isaiah is constantly getting into debates with opposing players and always slightly instigates his team to take matters into their own hands. He had a part in that no matter how small

Don't even get me started on Nate Robinson. He was the main reason that escalated. Sure JR Smith and Collins were face to face already but he was the one who started anything physical by shoving JR and continuing to raise his (tiny) fists at him

First off I thought the point of this game was to have the best players on your team on the floor so that you win the game, correct me if I'm wrong. Second, that is no excuse for you to send a hit-man out to hurt someone. Yes Isaiah(Zekee) should be suspended, I like Zek, but he has been like this all through his career, and he has a black eye on his resume ever since he was the catalyst for the Jordan boycott at the all star game, because he was to flashy, also since he played with the famed BAD BOYS of Detroit, when the bullied there way to those championships. This is no different except for him being on the sidelines and not playing on the court. He feels that since they were up so much that they were trying to embarrass him and his team because J.R. Smith was doing his thing by dunking, the fans paid good money to see a good show, and his team was not giving the home crowd that, so what, try and get them back when you go to their building if you can,(which I doubt since they suck and will suck for a while), this shows that Zeke is feeling the pressure and will soon be gone.

Isaiah just brings a dark cloud whenever he goes...CBA, Toronto Raptors, Indiana Pacers, now the Knicks. He left all of these places on bad terms, and his reputation during his playing days was not so great even though he's in the Hall of Fame. He's a known instigator and if it was found that he made some "threats", he should definitely be suspended.

Isaiah Suspended? NO. He should be fired! The brawl all started with him. WHY DID STERN NOT SUSPEND HIM?!? Hmmmm. New York Knicks is such a great team with its great players. But the problem is with Isaiah. He made a very good team with a very high rating in PS3. But no chemistry because of his stupid trades and contract signings. The biggest losers are the NY fans. I don't understand why he is still in New York. He should coach in WNBA instead.

yes and so should George Karl for keeping his two star players in the game to humiliate Thomas for firing Karl's UNC frat brother Larry Brown.
I've been aware of George Karl since he coached the Warriors (I live in the bay area). He is a thug.
Isiah Thomas is a thug with a choir boy face and personality. Remember when he was the ring leader of the "Bad Boy" Pistons?

Nah, don't suspend Thomas. He should have to watch every minute of this awful team right down to the last game of the season when he gets fired.

This quote is pathetic and if dolan had any brains hed fire thomas right now.
Thomas said he even told Anthony that he never should have been in the game at the time.
"I just said to him, 'You know, you're up 20, you're up 19 with a minute and half to go, you and (Marcus) Camby really shouldn't be in the game right now,"' Thomas said. "We had surrendered, those guys shouldn't even be in the game at that point in time."
