This would just mean DOLAN hired another (yesss man whatever you say boss)

Press conference is very important step in rebuilding the team.
No press conference no progress...

Maybe they will have it on episode of first take with stephan A

“Never show a fool a job half completed”

While I can’t tell you if they will do a press conference, I would say that to indict a company for not having one as incompetent is idiotic when its record speaks for itself.
They are incompetent in other areas. Thing is, they might have one soon enough. What does it matter if and when they do it other than demonstrate impatience. What do you want to hear? You really want to see Dolan with the basketball flanked by Perry? MIller? They are likely gone. Will Rose speak this week? He might. He won’t say anything of substance other than stuff we want to hear to make us feel better. GM? Coach? He won’t say. Why would he? Then press will blast him for insensitivity. They will blast him if he says nothing too. He won’t say he’ll trade, stay with youth, etc etc.
18 wins. Says enough about the current state. The future? Get angry over the small stuff is silly.

IMO I think Rose is the one who didn’t want the press conference. Would fall in line with what has been said about him.

Think the message being sent is no empty promises. Wants to focus on the work and doesn’t care for the glamour. Pretty smart since everything will be held against him until a winner is produced anyway.

I don't think I have ever disagreed with something that you said more than this. I think it's refreshing Rose apparently is more about the steak than the sizzle. He needs to get to ****ing work the situation is kinda dire. The reality is it doesn't matter what he does right now as it pertains to this season. I will be interested in what he wants to do after game 82 ends. Right now, he just needs to figure out where the bathroom is and start sniffing around for talent that we can get to come here

Starphuchers want to hear a savior sucking speech. Maybe Leon is to lay low and be a man of substance. Agents understand the client is the one to shine and not themselves.
Fans want a "State of the union" type speech? Knicks are an entertainment division of MSG and not a public domain government agency. Transparency is not the right of the fan to insist.
Let the actions of the team speak for itself because ultimately it will be judged accordingly.

Media will not applaud this and they will throw gas on it. Drunk Uncle fans will dance to it. Media will spin it as "Another arrogant MSG tactic". IF they do a big horse and pony show with balloons and cheerleaders media will spin it as "Another arrogant MSG tactic". I would imagine Leon has been watching and has his opinions. You still have the season left with 6 weeks to go. If MIller and Perry are gone there is no reason to embarrass or humiliate them. Media would expect it to be addressed and any small misstep will be analyzed to death.

You probably have a point now that i think about it. I certainly don't want to hear no puff pieces, i don't want to hear about a possible new coach while there's one still employed, and I certainly don't want to hear about trades and direction until after the season.

with all that's going on with this franchise, it would have been a fire storm of questions he would had to plead the 5th to in order for not say something he would regret..(see steve stout)

Rose has no ties to the negotiations and promises made to guys signed this past offseason. Not sure that he will go there but none of those guys should be back next year.

Ellington and Portis are probably not returning but I think they might keep Payton and may resign Harkless if they can get him cheap.

Trust the Process
