how can Leon be held accountable for his actions when he won't even speak to the media?


He’s a coward. You cannot have an absentee media policy in NY and not win. This is why Randle thinks speaking is optional too. It starts at the top.

We complain about randles attitude, selfish and dumb play and decide to bring in the one worse player - washed Russ.

Westbrook is still better.

24 hours from now...there will be no more discussion. We will have no trades. Thibs will run the same rotation tomorrow night. It's a wrap folks. What many of us knew...and some foolishly defended....Leon was a bad hire. Thibs was a bad hire. The entire off season was a disaster. Nothing good will come of any of this.

I hated the off season. If they were 1+1 deals... I still would have hated them... but not as much. I didn't like the Thibs hire. I didn't like the Rose hire. I also hated the Randle extension. I'm pretty much done. I'm here for the negativity now. No more hope for anyone! Every player must go! Burn it all down!

You’re welcome

Speaking to the media isn't how you have accountability in an organization :lol:

Fans can stop supporting the product and ownership can demand accounability, but talking to the press is just a circle jerk for the benefit of sports reporters that have nothing to write about.

Also Westbrook would be only the 4th (former) MVP to play for this franchise after Willis Reed, Derrick Rose and Alec Burks.

Would have been an tremendous and EASY foundation to build upon

What are we doing

Unless y’all want RJ, Grimes, Obi, Duece orIQ attached to some of these contracts we gave out this past summer… it’s probably best we just sit and do nothing unfortunately

You sound wild. Addressing the media is a part of the job. It’s how you, as an organization speak to your paying customers. It’s how you answer for your decisions and transactions. It’s step 1 of the information flow. There is a reason why every major sport has a minimum media availability policy that must be met or there will be fines. You tryna sound smart but you’re sounding stupid by implying team leadership or it’s best players boycotting the media isn’t avoiding accountability.

Russell’s contract is way shorter, his stats may even be better - even as a mere third wheel. Compare their current stats including even Russ’s greatest knocks: turnovers, field goal and three point percentage. Westbrook is better, his contract is more suitable and there really is no drawback at all in trading Randle, Kemba and Fournier for him today. Look up their stats before telling me otherwise. I’m serious.

And Russ may not even be done. Who knows what he can do between RJ, Cam, Obi and Mitch. I want a rebuild, but that team may even be more successful than the current trash.
