I'm all for trading them Fournier or Burks + Noel for Dragic and then buying him out

James Dolan is the Donald Trump of owners.

His decision making and the people he hires are all Trump-style maneuvers.

He's just a quiet behind the scenes guy but his mentality is identical to Trump regarding accept responsibility, the media, incompetence in all levels of his business, etc.

This is ridiculous. It’s like hiring someone to do a job because supposedly they know what they’re doing, but they need to hire someone else to tell them what to do. Why did I hire you in the first place????? Should have just hired the other guy.

And doing it all the day before a big deadline.

Man, they are in way over there heads.

Leon, a playoff team is desperate!!!! ****.g call them... we just want that 2027 FRP. Make sure they don't wait until this offseason. We're probably the only team that can support that 44m per year contract!

huge indictment on this FO that 6 months after signing Fournier, Burks, Noel, Kemba that all are on the block....w/ no takers

+ Randle can be had 6 months after signing a 4 year extension

and Cam, who they just traded a 1st for, can't even crack the rotation

this FO has no clue what they're doing

If Trump owned the Knicks, he'd def say the NBA is treating us badly. Look at the calls against us. And the fact that players come here to sign deals and basically retire. The latter takes two to tango, but Trump would say it's bad treatment.

Let's just hope he has a Trump style controversy soon and is forced to sell the team ala Donald Sterling.

That's our only remaining hope as fans.

Someone needs to do some undercover sleuthing on this guy.

The Knicks FO is basically just standing around holding their co*ck in their hands while the rest of the NBA makes deals.
