why do the knicks need smoke screens ? who are they hiding their intentions from ?

they could just....i don't know.....go ahead and hire the guy they want without all this. that's an idea.

Do you think the NBA will go into next season with the same coaches on the same teams?

Silver : Hello?

Rose : Hey Dave, how's it going?

Silver : Look Leon, I told you just don't annouce the hire yet I don't want it to distract from the finals.

Leon : Oh, no, I'm not calling to ask you to let me, not at all. Although, how's that not distract stuff working out for ya?

Silver : Yea, yea, sure funny one Leon. Well, what do you want?

Rose : Can I talk to your wife?

Silver : My wife? Why?

Rose : I have a coaching position I need to fill.

Silver : Wait...what? My wife isn't a coach.

Rose : Hey, buddy, I'm doing my due diligence since I have a couple weeks to kill.

Silver : No, you can't speak to my wife!

Rose : So you are denying permission for me to speak to your wife? Is this a firm denial?

Silver : Yes, I am denying...firmly!

Rose : OK, man, just putting out some feelers, don't get too upset about it. Oh, and if the news gets a story leaked to them on me calling about your wife but you denying me permission, it wasn't me, I don't leak.

Silver : Wait...what?

Rose : Ok buddy, gotta run, my drink just got here. Later *click*

Silver : Hello?....jerk.

i don't understand the question. are you asking if a coach on another team will be fired before the season starts ?

I’m saying that if that’s a possibility the Knicks don’t want to miss out on that by making a quick hire.

Let’s say they hire Bryant. And then Lue gets let go a week later. And they didn’t know cause they didn’t ask. Why risk that?

Yea that’s like the thing I was sayin about Dallas/Luka… if you don’t ask you don’t know. That would be catastrophic to miss out on a coach that way. Make the calls, find out, sleep easy. The regret would haunt you forever

I’m sure they have a preference but they’re not going to plan B without checking in with other teams first
