While the Knicks remain silent to the media, Larry Brown's agent Joe Glass is revealing what Isiah Thomas has told him.

"Isiah Thomas has told me that the stories that have been in the paper are something being made up by reporters," said an angry Glass, Brown's longtime agent.

"I have not heard from anybody of any authority except what I read in the paper about any of these situations. There is nothing planned about a buyout. There is no discussion. There will never be any talk about a buyout . . . There's nothing to discuss about this situation."

The Knicks have continued to decline comment on the reports.
