08/10/2010 -

NEW YORK (AP) -Mike D'Antoni sounds OK with it. Mike Krzyzewski wouldn't do it.

Isiah Thomas' return to the New York Knicks as a consultant while still coaching a college team has raised plenty of questions - starting with whether it's even legal.

D'Antoni, who became the Knicks' coach after Thomas was fired two years ago, says his predecessor could provide an advantage for the organization. Krzyzewski, the Hall of Fame coach of Duke and the U.S. national team, would decline a similar position because he believes college and NBA jobs should be separate.

The NBA is reviewing the agreement to see if it violates league rules, which prevent team officials from having contact with players who aren't yet eligible for the draft.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press.
