James Dolan in Utah, sits with Mike D'Antoni on bench during pregame in animated conversation, met with team before tip-off. Pep talk?
Not sure why it would be of any surprise that the GM, his staff, the owner, and just about anyone that has anything to do with shaping our future would be watching more closely in the final 15 games or so. Just to see things up close for themselves before they all get together and try to shape the new team.
I see no conspiracies involved in these travels by Walsh or Allan Houston or John Gabriel or even James Dolan.
In fact I see it as a good thing.
What I will say with 100% certainty is that nobody is evaluating Mike D as of yet. Everyone knows what is going on and knows he is not at fault for the past two losing season at all. They know he was brought here to HELP build the NEW team and COACH IT.
I just don't see what there is to these travels beyond good business.
