"If it takes me taking a pay cut, I’ll be the first one on Mr. Dolan’s steps saying take my money and let’s build something strong over here.’”

This is what Phil Jax is responding to in his conference on Wednesday. He is not dissing Melo, he is responding to Melo's public statement he made during the all star break in February.

Phil is playing hard ball that could be misconstrued..That stuff should be in house..Lets hope Melo ain't petty..

In the end it's a very strong indication of who's running this ship. In the past it was really Melo, but Phil had to take it back and this was his means of doing that. Just incase Melo or anyone else hadn't gotten the memo. Get used to it.

You're wrong!!! Phil is doing what he's always done, which is use the media to get at his players. It's old school and it works. If a player can't take it then you don't want that player on your team. He's always probing and pushing his players to force them to expand their game and their mind. He's one of the best to ever do it but he's not the only one. Most don't do it anymore, but it's part of Phil's tool box.

Understand this, Melo is ready to walk...Phil as a GM can't /won't attract another star ...People here talking about LeBron coming with role players, a dream...We can talk about this, NYS State tax implications and all..Phil ain't suiting up..So if you feel that Phil in the front office is like having a ring then run with it..

Stars win rings...Lets see Phil pull this off with Zen mind tricks...

Fuck melo,

great chance for melo to back his words up, to be ACCOUNTABLE ;)

if he doesn't want to, then he's not someone we need.

we just won 30 something games, i'm sure we can manage that next year without him and after that the sky is the limit.

phil jax is here to Zen the **** out of new york

If Melo is backing up his words then he will go to a team that can win..It won't be here..Secondly, these guys don't give two **** what u think...He will make bank no matter what..Not everyone want to be a Knick, check the free agent bottleneck trying to get into MSG the last 30 years..

Big Chief Triangle has a history of not keeping it in house. Remember the whole Pippen/Kukoc thing on MJs 1st retirement?

When its public its not in the house anymore. When you don't respond to the obvious its "Evasive".
Sports is nothing without the fans, so transparency is part of it.

HIs sarcastic and honest approach is cool in my book. Better than Larry having to do it on the side of the road.

Pippen left the game like a spoiled biytch. It was all to see.
