This waa arguably the biggest move in Knicks modern day history. If you look at the roster he inherited... how we were the joke of the league and media. Leon turned it around in 5 years. Still not done but an amazing feeling

Sorry but WWW and Leon were not hired because of their basketball acumen. They were brought here because of their connections to CAA. Period.

What I will give Leon credit for is having enough sense to know that he needed front office talent around him.

And even then we got some duds like Cam Reddish. And give Thibs credit, not Leon. Thibs has more knowledge about the game in little pinky than Leon has in entire body.

We went how many years without someone who could effectively do what Leon did? 25 years of "Yes Men" looking for phat paydays. :banghead:

I said that after he gave RJ that terrible extension and didn’t trade for Donovan. Thoughts on the matter?

Regardless he has redeemed himself (when he traded for OG) and I apologize

You don’t know who contributed what from the front office. For example, it was Thibs and Rosas was probably responsible for swinging the deal for Towns; not Leon.

Trust me, after Leon made that trade dumbass trade for Reddish (two second round picks!), Thibs put him in his place. Leon is the dumbest person in the front office other that WWW. I know him personally.
