Perry's comments at the end of season presser seemed to be aimed specifically at JVG though: “Maybe there’s a guy who’s been around the league for a long time who generally learned over time to be more open to things that they weren’t open to in the past,’’ Perry said Thursday. “Or, at least in a reflection of the staff that he wants to bring to help bolster areas that maybe he’s not as comfortable with. So we’ll vet all that out during the process as we meet with each and every person.” Which other candidate thats been mentioned would that be applicable to? Sounds like he was saying if JVG wants the jobs, he'd have to be open to analytics, their opinions etc (JVG feuded with the GM in his first stint) |

JVG got fired from the Rockets after three of four years they got bounced in first round. His last year they were healthy. I did not follow his team there as I did in NY. There was more to his story than just NY. After 11 years away, he no doubt has different ideas. We all do. Knicks1248:
1. Dolan should be more involved! 2. Why would any knick fan want pick 8, when that spot has a history of producing marginal NBA taken. (He prefers pick 9th instead)

When you say "I have no idea"..... It says a lot. All the guys on the list have taints. You will not find one that checks all your boxes. Knicks1248:

They both suck. It's like choosing between Clinton and Trump The only things that trickle down are wages and horse shit

![]() Interesting read on Blatt's time in Cleveland...
http://www.cleveland.com/cavs/index.ssf/2016/01/why_david_blatt_got_fired_and.html INDEPENDENCE, Ohio - Player accountability, mismanaging, a building frustration and the absence of hope led to David Blatt's ouster as head coach of the Cleveland Cavaliers. |

Woodson struck me as less of a coach but good at getting the guys fired up. As they said there are very few that check all the boxes. What is key is developmental. Melo is ranked 38 on defense. Probably one of the best PF defenders in the league -HofstraBBall (1/24/2018)

He has history with Mills, making it a seamless transition, and as you say, we're not in a win now situation. We're more in a development phase. In two seasons, we should be playoff ready.

We had to put up with that 54 times during 2012 when we made the conference finals. Dont worry, it will be Princeton mafia all the way. But not a bad choice imo. fishmike
