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.


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.

and yes, the media is a way to demand accountability. make the FO answer for the decisions they make. obviously, accountability within the organization is up to the owner

but fans deserve answers as to why all the acquisitions by the FO just 6 months ago are now on the block, and what the plan was after going from a 4 seed to a team that wouldn't be in the play-in if the season ended today

pretty sure Leon has spoken to the media one time, during Thibs' intro press conference....that's pathetic

Sacramento will be better
Halliburton will organize Indianas offense better
NO has more scoring

Let every single team that’s ahead of us tank wise get stronger.

Nothing is more crucial than us losing every single game for the rest of the season.

Keep the “Big 3” of Kemba-Noel-Burks another year so we can win 19 games next year also.

Just lose baby. Just lose.

fans won't stop supporting the product, we're in NY, MSG is a tourist attraction

and yes, the media is a way to demand accountability. make the FO answer for the decisions they make. obviously, accountability within the organization is up to the owner

but fans deserve answers as to why all the acquisitions by the FO just 6 months ago are now on the block, and what the plan was after going from a 4 seed to a team that wouldn't be in the play-in if the season ended today

pretty sure Leon has spoken to the media one time, during Thibs' intro press conference....that's pathetic


Like I have argued about Thibs when people defended his trash coaching...and when people argued the booing. Make Leon/Dolan/Perry stand mid court before every game...we will see them get booed out of the building too. But they get to hide...like Randle did. Thibs gets to flat out lie. No accountability. It starts at the top. Fuq this team.

I’m not sure if I should be impressed that he’s an all-star even though his team has such a bad record or if that’s a red flag

I wanted Derrick White as a draft guy but haven't followed his career recently. How's he been?

you forgot to put "contract" after Russ

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.


If we ship all those players our for Russ he most definitely isn't going to be our 3rd wheel. He is going to be the man here.

I'm sure there are some stats that show he is doing well - same line could be used for Randle. Russ is washed no way around it.

I get that he fills a position on need, frees up obi, and has a shorter contract. I'm just not gonna buy into that Russ is a solution. He is a problem.
