And we’re not even talking about the fact that the Knicks have gone 70-98 since trading for Marbury or that they’ve gone 30-61 since Starbury proclaimed himself the best point guard in the NBA. Nope, the problem that Isiah has is that Marbury’s cousins, Hassan Gonsalves and Tasheem Ward, seem to be key names in the sexual harassment suit filed against him.
MSG President Steve Mills told Browne Sanders in the fall of 2004 that MSG chairman James Dolan wanted her to create jobs for Gonsalves and Ward, even though both men were “completely unqualified,” the lawsuit said.“Gonsalves was ultimately fired by MSG, at Browne Sanders’ urging, because he engaged in repeated and flagrant sexual harassment,” the lawsuit added. “His firing did not occur, however, until he had sexually harassed several women on the staff and had on numerous occasions defrauded the company.”
Sources close to the team told the Daily News that Gonsalves threatened Browne Sanders after he was fired, telling her, “We know you have kids. We know where you live.
Ahhh nepotism at its finest. We’re glad it worked out so well this time.
