Morey is not going to take order from Leon Rose.

Huge move though.

I like it. I wish we had the foresight to hire someone like Morey but we usually get stuck with Dolan's friends or celebrities.



He'd rather take orders from Elton Brand though? I almost think taking orders from Brand is worse than from Rose. Brand is as incompetent as they come and has completely botched everything Hinkie had done.


Brand is taking orders from him.

Brand is the GM, he's the President of Basketball Operations.



ahh that makes more sense. Brand will probably be out of a job shortly.

Yeah, Rose is the Knicks President, our GM is still Perry, who will be on the hot seat all year probably. Not sure who they would be looking to replace Perry. Anyway I think I'd rather see what Rose can do. I wasn't impressed with the recent moves Morey was making

I'm actually pretty shocked about this. I figured that Morey would get the Hinkie treatment and would be blackballed from the league. I'm glad it's not happening. Honestly, wish we got rid of Perry and brought him in.

morey living off the hype 12 years ago.

fact is he had one of the greatest scorers in the history of the nba in james harden, and failed to field a team around him.
LOL Y U MAD THO?

How much is it Harden going missing in the Playoffs?

On a better team you couldn't take him out like he was.

can you even name harden's robin?

a past his prime cp3? past his prime westbrook? dwight howard when he simply lost his talent? eric gordon? ryan anderson lol? who else?

that team always lacked height, always lacked talent outside of harden.

i'm not saying morey is bad bu he's living off a reputation from over 10 years ago.

The Nets are now using Basquiat for their City jerseys. A year after their BIG Coogi jerseys. They really know how to use culture to elevate their brand and are blowing us out the water in the branding department.

The Knicks have so many iconic cultural references and so much art to use for their brand yet they just stand there doing absolutely nothing. There's inspiration everywhere yet our brand is bland and completely unexciting. And I don't mind the minimalism of our regular jerseys (I like minimalism) but our blue and white alternates are just bland and generic af.
