I do not think so....Phil has Gaines because that is who he worked with and trusted.....that is why you put together a team for Allan to succeed.

I personally think Dolan wants Masai in Toronto...if he does not get him it is Houston or Isiah...next up

If we cannot get a top notch guy....why not give our hometown guy a shot..I believe we can have some gravitas with FA's....Houston is respected and well liked. Just make sure he has a solid team around him...Dolan can afford it.

Mentored by the worst! Realistically thats who the new GM will be and it's depressing. Just once it would be nice to hire a GM/president based on ability rather than name or nepotism. That's why I'm sticking with Phil for no- the alternative will be a Dolan friend with less cache to resist Dolan's whims.

How do you/we know what kind of moves he will do....He damn sure seen his share of mistakes by his bosses....and more importantly seen the long range impact....he seems like a smart guy.....the only mistake I saw him make was hiring his friend as the d-league coach a year back and then firing him...

I hear you....he has not had good bosses...but I rather have him than seeing Rob Hennigan or some other young guy walk through the door and we go through this again.

If he wasn't friends with Dolan and therefore guaranteed a job for life, would he honestly be in the running? No- he has nothing to point to as proof that he will be good, why settle for nepotism?

WTF??? Man you are F'n LOST!!! You really think it makes sense to bash 21 and 22 yr old sophomore and Rookie for not being perfectly consistent??? This is some BULL ISH you're spouting here. How about some time to F'n develop as NBA Players??? JESUS man try to show some degrees of perspective and understanding. This was a HORRIBLE post you made and you should re-examine your priorities if this is your gripe with the team.

By saying someone is inconsistant im BASHING them, where losing as a fckng team. against the cavs, the ball was moving like a pinball, and guys were missing shots, passes, turnover. This Offense looks Gross at times with or with out melo. Every young player in the league has talent and shows flashes, that don't mean they know how to win and play hard every single minute. I don't get that from near one person on this roster

KP can put up a 100 points a night and i could careless if were losing. I'm not singling out no one. This is a team fkng game, and i dont see anyone stepping up on a regular, and i haven't seen any player we have had since phil got here play with any consistancy.

Young talent means nothing if your losing Game after Game. WTF are the young kids learning, Losing doesn't build confidence or trust, it gets you frustrated and tired, evident from the tweets and comments KP himself has made.. Nobody likes losing...We have to change thre front offce, including mills and allan
