Don't you want someone with a proven track record running your business, or are you the type to give any friend or family member a job despite being very incompetent.

Right now Dolan has Given him a opportunity to turn the ship in a winning direction, and he is busy listening to melo's camp offering to go places he knows there wont be a deal there worth taking. They have no young players to give back, Love or Anderson would have to be involve, both of whom play KP's position.

Your going to run around for weeks trying to trade melo only to get no deal done, and miss out on every available 1st, 2nd, and 3rd tier Free Agents to point this team upward..You still have to build a winning culture

Griffin is useless. He benefited from LeBron coming back or he would be no different than T-Wolves past GMs. Perpetual lottery team. A lot of bad contracts too.

Ujiri just handed Lowery 33 million per year a whopping 3 years 100 million that is a mark of a over paying GM. For what 50 wins and swift kick in the nuts out the playoffs. The grass ain't always greener out there. The Knicks would be wise to keep it unknown or a lesser known GM to keep the dumb ass media off their back. Any big name will attract the media into a frenzy and put a target in the back of the GM.

Don't draw attention stay out of the lime light. Less the GM is know the better it will be.

Mills hasn't even spoke to the media at summer league to let fans know diddly squat, which he so gladly ran his mouth off last summer league.

He doesn't need to update you or anyone. He is doing fine, we will get an update when the time is right.

What Ujiri did was smart was to layout a 3 yr track to run....if the team cant make it out of the East in 3 years...lowry & ibaka...off the books...maybe even move Derozan...he did not lock himself in with 5 yr deals....yes the deals are pretty immovable during the life of the deal..esp Lowry...but he did the smart thing....push the annual Salary and not the years....

So he is basically banking on LeBron leaving. He could have got him for 3 year 65. Or he could have given the contract to George Hill who would have come cheaper and the Raptors still make the playoffs in the weak east.

He not banking on anything other than getting a fresh deck to play with after 3 years. They already have a good team, with chemistry....why go for G. Hill....pay your guy and move forward...if things do not work after 3 years .....clean slate...smart move..."Chess baby..not Checkers"

So basically he gets do overs. That won't work here three years is all you get to get your work in.

He is just playing the hand he is dealt....nit trying to overplay....he is not perfect...exhibit A..D. Carroll contract but he has: different expectations....different team...different goals.......and 3 years is better than doing a do over ever year which is what we have just went through with Phil and will go through this year...

I'm not sure what you don't know about what the team is doing. Pretty clear that they're going to develop and build around the young core they have drafted and that isn't very sexy. No point stating the obvious. There isn't going to be any Miami Style Super Friends or Banana Boat Reunions. You're gonna have to enjoy watching your young draft picks develop!!! No matter who we sign or trade for this is going to be a PROCESS.

Mills sucks and the entire league knows it, stop using the rebuild mode to justify why nobody wants to come here, and mills can't complete anything. The young core still has to be surrounded by winning vets.

Ask yourself, what has gone right since mills has been here.

You do realize that the Knicks are not offering these FA's the contracts they're getting with other teams right? There are FA's that would come but the Knicks obviously have a plan that they are sticking to with these contracts.

What do you mean by "winning vets"? Guys that are impact players on winning teams or vets that have been role players on winning teams? The Knicks do have some vets and only need a vet PG the mentor and bridge the gap. There's no need to rush this.
