Of all the ousted NBA general managers who get their names tossed into vacancy rumors, Billy King would seem to be the most unlikely. King's oeuvre is known well; Kenny Thomas, Willie Green, Samuel Dalembert and Chris Webber are just some of the names to keep in mind.

That doesn't stop Frank Isola of the New York Daily News from tossing King's hat into the Knicks sweepstakes.
King, who is working as an analyst for NBA TV and ESPN, could be a strong candidate to replace [Isiah] Thomas in New York. He and Garden president Steve Mills are good friends.
If by "strong" you mean "virtually indistinguishable from Isiah except for the whole sexual harrassment thing," then yes, King could be a "strong" candidate.

Also rumored to be interesting in the job are Kevin McHale, Elgin Baylor, and Billy Knight.
