I'd also like to point out that a lot of the blame should also go to the media and the fans. Our impatience and intolerance for the smallest things, plus our reputation to draw to quick conclusions our famous.

Dolan without a doubt. These problems were mounting long before Isiah piled on.

Secondly, any competant GM would be able to convince Dolan what needs to be done.
Lose money for the next 3 years so we can rebuild? riiiiiight

What, you don't think the Knicks are losing money? The Knicks are NOT selling games out anymore and the Knicks have been rebuilding. They just have been doing a crappy job.

Like I said, the fans will accept rebuilding and will buy tickets if there is hope. They aren't buying tickets to the crap. Again I say, any competant guy could convince an idiot like Dolan, especially since Isiah was able to do it for 3 years and get significantly worse.

See if the Knicks were rebuilding this would be ok but the fact that the team is trying to acquire talent and win a championship and they STILL sucks is the horrific part.

What the Knicks are trying to do is rebuild and built a win now team at the same time, meanwhile, we sucked from the beginning. It's a recipe for disaster.

Season ticket sales are down 15% dude. Is that gaining money in your eyes???

No, it means they're making slightly less than before. To say a team is losing money you'd have to know that their expenses are higher than their gross revenues.

Alright Bonn1997s' drunk Uncle, you go think what you want, but I'm pretty sure Dolan finds it to be a problem that season tickets sales are down 15 percent from a year ago and that the club has sold less tickets than any team since 20 years ago but I'm sure you'd blame that on Larry for hurting our players feelings to the media.

id blame it all on isiah................if dolan hadn't hired a guy by the name of scott layden just before him.
DLee is the best thing to happen to NY in Isiah's 4 year tenure. And that alone, though a positive on the radar, is sad as hell.

We can blame it on whoever, but it still doesn't give the excuse to the players for playing like crap.
