What Melo advice are you referring to?

The advice by Donnie Walsh to sit tight. The Knicks would make money and grow in value if a monkey owned the team. If Dolan was judged on his hiring and management decisions and bottom line results vs dollar spent he would be recognized as the worst owner of all time. Knick fans who have invested 10is of thousands of$ in time and money supporting this team deserve something other than this mental midget. What Dolan should do is STFU and give paying ticket holders a huge refund back. He won't and will take advantage of us having a top pick and raise them. He's a duck and I can see why any fan would be upset with his pure stupidity. He is loyal to the $ not the knicks

GIven the amount of money the knicks have paid in taxes and otherwise, its not even that. I think he is beholden to his ego and delegation has been an issue with him. When Isiah "Rasputin" Thomas had Dolans Mojo it was an empic financial failure.

Dolan is top 5 in worst ownership in any professional sport. Kroenke in Denver is sure trying though!

Phil or not, him delegating to basketball people spoke well for him. This idiotic E-mail is dumbfounding seems legit only if someone hacked Dolans account. Otherwise its out of charactor for him. He is a paranoid little man who has shunned confrontation as well. Thats why I say its out of charactor.

I think Dolan is the type of person that throws money at problems. There are certainly people out there that think this way......that true quality is based on the amount you spend. Sometimes it works out....but as a NBA Franchise owner with a convoluted and restrictive cap structure in place, more often than not....it will be the teams looking for, understanding and applying value that will be successful more often in the long term.

I get what they tried to do, but it did not work. Whats done is done.

exactly, if hiring phil jacksons was his best move to date(base on fans and media), so far thats turning into something far worse than hiring IT and trading 1st round picks for a living

So far hiring of phil jackson wose than IT? why?

because it's obviously smart to evaluate and make declarations about someone rebuilding a franchise 9months into their efforts.

Well for starters his initial plan failed miserably, so his fall back plan now is to rebuild. He couldn't trade any of the players on this roster for anything worth while, even with expiring contracts. Essentially anyone on this board could have done the same thing he did without a drop of experience.

Trade tyson to a team that wanted him anyway
Drafting early, who look like he isn't close to being NBA material yet
hiring fisher who had no other offers from anyone
trading shump and JR or pocket change and a late 2nd rnd pick

IT wasn't a bad hire until his moves started back firing, just like phil grabbed calderon in the trade hoping he was a better option then felton, IT thought curry, crawford, penny, steph where better talent than , Doleac, shannan, eisly and some 1st picks.

A GM/prez is as good as his team, especially when your moves are a reflection of the teams record

in my opinion his only bad move was taking calderons contract. I agree dallas wanted tyson BUT his value was very low because of his poor play so we couldnt get too much

None of the previous GM/Prez to take over the franchise, had started out with the worst record in the history of the franchise..not layden, not IT, not walsh..Phil has essentially put us at rock bottom

Walsh, Grunwald I believe were taking orders from the boss.

Calderon played very well last season on a good team. He is playing liks shyt ona bad team. 7mm is not an awful contract either.
He is not makin or breaking team.

when/if the boss tells you to give up a #1 pick for Bargs, you quit or hang yourself.
