Dolan hasn't touched the Knicks since hiring and firing Phil Jackson but he still shows signs of his short-fuse and that certainly can't be a great look. Amare did come out a couple of weeks ago and claimed that Dolan treated him really well. Let's just say I trust Scott Perry and Steve Mills so pull all the basketball operation strings. As long as we have those two, I trust what comes next: Kyrie, Barrett, Knox, KD, DeAndre with a bench of DSJ, Trier, Dot, Mitchell, and sprinkle in a few vets. That's instant ECF. This video also broke down all of our reactions pretty well on draft night: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-IztxBlfBk
Yes, couldn't help but notice the 'Eli Manning look' on Zion when the Knicks pick came too early for him. Does he really want to join the worst franchise in basketball?

Place the responsibility for the debacle that is the Knicks today right on the desk of Dolan. He has ruined this once great franchise. Until he sells the team, things will never get better. Thank goodness i was around to the the championship teams of 1970 and '73. Real basketball was played in the Garden back then.

The way things stand now, neither the Knicks nor the Rangers will contend for a playoff berth, much less a title, as long as Dolan is alive and has a death grip on Madison Square Garden.
If anything, the NY Liberty of the WNBA have a greater chance of winning big now that they are no longer owned by Dolan. First thing the new owner did was get that team out of Dodge - now they play their home games in White Plains.

Not only did Patrick Ewing deliver Zion to the Knicks, he also delivered A. Davis. Watch!
If this happens, it would be time to retire his number in MSG and that of his team mates A. Houston, Starks and Oakley.
