State Rep. Pat Garofalo's tweet about the NBA has prompted hundreds of responses, with many on social media calling it racist.
According to a report, the Hall of Famer is expected to tell owner James Dolan on Monday whether he'll accept a position in the organization's front office and run basketball operations.
The "process," as coach Jason Kidd likes to call it, has brought the Nets to this crucial juncture. A strong performance this week would send a message that Brooklyn belongs with more elite company.
Contrary to popular opinion, it's not impossible to believe Dolan would actually relinquish control to someone. The model is right in front of everyone's eyes: Glen Sather and the Rangers.
Boomer and Craig were in lockstep early Monday with regards to Phil Jackson joining the Knicks front office...
Carmelo Anthony shook off a horrid shooting start and scored 26 points, leading the New York Knicks to their third straight victory, 107-97 over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Saturday night.
Carmelo Anthony scored 18 of his 29 points in the first quarter, sending the New York Knicks to a rare easy night in a 108-81 victory over the Utah Jazz on Friday.
Phil Jackson may one day return to the Knicks -- just not as head coach. The team has reportedly offered the legendary coach a front office position. Jackson was said to be mulling the offer and expected to give his answer next week.
Mason says he's been unable to land a job with the team despite an obvious need to get back to what worked 20 years ago, when the Knicks reached the NBA Finals under former coach Pat Riley.
It's easy to label the Knicks losers. But why must we join them? They say not just a tree but also a team grows in Brooklyn.
"We understand Dolan will not sell," Griffin wrote on Facebook. "We understand change may not come of this. We just want our voices heard. We want to remind Dolan and the NBA that our voices matter."
"I don't think they're tuning me out," Woodson said about his players. "They're still listening. We're just not getting it done on the basketball floor, and that's the frustrating part about it."
Carmelo Anthony scored 33 points to help the New York Knicks snap a seven-game losing streak with a 118-106 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday night.
There's no saving this season, but perhaps it is worth changing coaches just to see how some of these players respond to a new voice.
This pretty much sums up the Knicks' season, doesn't it? When the children in the stands can't even wrap their heads around the product on the floor, you know it's officially hit rock bottom.
