Niente accordo tra Knicks e David Griffin, l'ex GM dei Cavs si tira fuori dalla corsa al posto

Firing Phil Jackson only enabled another henchman to ruin Knicks

It is perpetual midnight around the Knicks, a darkness that knows no bounds and respects no borders. It is a cruel truth for a city that feels as deeply and as passionately about basketball as New York does. We might call these desperate hours if not for the fact this mess is way, way, WAY past desperate by now.


Maybe David Griffin wasn’t your idea of an ideal choice to be the Knicks’ new general manager, and that would certainly be a fair opinion. The Cavaliers won an NBA title on his watch, mostly due to the presence of LeBron James and Kyrie Irving, so you can’t exactly credit him with master-minding a champion.


Still, he’s a career basketball man with a good reputation, and since the Knicks are currently in the market — or were, allegedly — for someone with both of those qualifications, it made perfect sense they would meet with him, as they reportedly did this weekend.


But in the perpetual midnight that is the Knicks, it is never enough for a job interview merely to conclude without an agreement. There is always opera music playing in the background, there are always extra levels of drama, there are always the petty turf wars and intractable stances that force a little something extra.

Windhorst:


Steve Mills believes he's gonna run the Knicks. He's already shaping the team. Tim Hardaway Jr. signing was his move. He didn't do that thinking he'd be in the chair for a few days.


Carmelo?


Knicks would love to trade him to Houston but have gotten no traction. Rockets would like to trade for him. Pieces just don't match. Knicks have prioritized young players. Rockets don't have the young pieces to get Melo to them that the Knicks wants. ... Carmelo is making almost $30M. That's a big number to swallow. To make this work, they'll need to find a third team to make it possible. Not a lot of 3rd teams interested in helping the Rockets build a super team or take pieces the Knicks don't want. .. Tall task. Interest in doing it. This one will be complicated. There is interest from both sides.

A source told the Daily News that one of Griffin’s requests was to remove Allan Houston, who has been with the Knicks as a player or an executive for the majority of the last 20 years. With Dolan’s support as one of the owner’s all-time favorite players (remember that $100 million contract extension), Houston rapidly ascended in New York’s front office and many believe he’s being groomed as the next GM under Mills. – via New York Daily News

Dolan ha una demenza evidente possibile non ci sia una diagnosi che la certifica?

Giuro che appena ho letto il titolo ho pensato "non avrà accettato di fargli da poottanellah".

(Putta e Nella nell'automod Sportando? Serious?)

Giusto. Meglio una marionetta.

Grazie mille il presidente ti ringrazia.

Su nbastream (reddit) di solito mettono i link agli streaming nei commenti, ho dato un occhio e qualcosa riesci a vedere...

Eh anche questo gm da scartare.. Mi domando quale mossa per il futuro ha in mente Dolan..

Dolan: "What do you want to do with this organization"


Griffin: "I have a vision of..."


Dolan: "Next"

Credo di sì

Torna a casa David!

Tu fai già parte del loro front office, non vali

L'unica occasione di autonomia l'ha concessa ad uno più svitato di lui

Ma siamo pazzi, autonomia? Ha chiesto autonomia a Dolan? Ah ah ah ah ah...

Credo io

Bravo Dolan. Quante ne sai

E' rimasto qualche nome papabile buono?

Ha fatto bene

Autonomia decisionale??
Ma scherziamo?
