If it was a sign & trade with Boston, Woj or Shams would’ve said it. Plus one of the other tweets said Gordon called Ainge’s bluff

My sauces are saying Leon is sleeping right now which means nobody is keeping and eye on Perry and Dolan.

Hayward wasn’t it, but at some point the Knicks are going to need to overpay with their cap space to bring in better talent..you have to start becoming respectable

imagine the outrage if we signed Hayward to 4/120?

Batum would be a nice vet too and can help Frank with the French connection. Do it Donnie!!!

How old is Dolan? What are the actuarial tables on a guy like him?

Give me a little hope.

Yes, Dolan is an issue but he is NOT the ultimate reason for our troubles.

Our problems are:

- A Losing Mentality: Nobody wants to join a loser and expect to be the magic bullet that turns us into a winner overnight. That's a lot of pressure and unrealistic.

- The Media: NY press is fickle and can be a turn off for players not used to the scrutiny.

- The Fans: We are regularly our own worst enemy. We sometimes show entitlement and EXPECT the #1 draft pick or FA to come to us as if it should drop out of the sky simply because we're NY and want it. Then, "IF" we get it, we eat them alive once here. Players are paying attention and they see this.

We can't continue tanking for this or that college player, because that's an unending cycle. We HAVE to add pieces along the way that makes us respectable and shows we're on a winning trajectory. We also need to make the playoffs, which is part of the development of our existing young talent. Then and only then will the top talent in the league be willing to take a chance on us.

You've been pushing this awful narrative for years.

Newsflash bud, other New York teams have won plenty of games with the big bad media and the big bad fans.

The only ones who haven't are ones run by awful owners like the Wilpons and Dolan.

Don't insult my intelligence by trying to pass blame from the worst in sports to the fans of all people.

I’m down for Rozier, Batum, First for Randle. That sounds pretty legitimate.

Yeah. I'm glad we didn't do that. Easy to see that becoming an albatross contract for years.

We are just going to stay the same forever. No FA/trade is good enough/realistic for the fans (nor do they want to play here) and our youth is overrated here, and unproven everywhere else. So much for all the connections. Mediocrity in the Mecca. Per usual. Dolan is 65 and probably wont make it till 75, so 2030/31 will be our time to shine.
