Schmeelk: It's Time For The Knicks To Embrace The Tank
If the Knicks can add one more top player from next year's draft, they'd have a good young core that has a chance to become something real.

If the Knicks can add one more top player from next year's draft, they'd have a good young core that has a chance to become something real.
Frank Ntilikina has put pen to paper.
Could the Knicks find their starting point guard in Chicago yet again?
Still looking to make their first free agent splash of the summer, the Knicks are reportedly interested in shooting guard Dion Waiters.
If Frank Ntilikina has his way, he'll be learning from Derrick Rose this fall. The Knicks, however, appear to have other ideas.
The Knicks have signed former Vanderbilt center Luke Kornet to one of the two-way contracts allowable under the new Collective Bargaining Agreement.
What seemed impossible just a couple weeks ago might now be possible: The Knicks might actually be able to find a landing spot for Carmelo Anthony.
Carmelo Anthony has reportedly picked two teams he'd be willing to waive his no-trade clause to join. Now can the Knicks strike a deal that works for them?
Dolan has this odd karmic or cosmic connection with Thomas. It's an odd pair, to be sure, the born billionaire and his Hall of Fame pal who came from the streets of Chicago.
Phil Jackson's stint as the New York Knicks' president was a complete failure, a shameless money grab that leaves the team worse off.
In an effort to get ahead with my work, I sat down last weekend and wrote what I thought the Knicks' offseason plan should be. A few days later, Phil Jackson got fired and everything changed.
Thomas served as the Knicks' president of basketball operations from 2003-08 and as head coach from 2006-08.
Phil Jackson is out as Knicks president. On the latest "City Game" podcast, hosts Steve Lichtenstein and John Schmeelk discuss what the shakeup means for the Knicks and look back on where Jackson went wrong.
In the end, it appears the bickering proved to be too much.
Phil Jackson was supposed to bring respectability, winning, and a direction to Madison Square Garden, but instead he brought the opposite -- chaos, losing, and embarrassment.
The Knicks are apparently thinking about poaching an executive from a division rival to replace Phil Jackson.
Carmelo Anthony is reportedly less inclined to waive his no-trade clause now than he was two months ago.
All in all, the Knicks didn't do anything stupid Thursday night, and with this front office, that has to be considered a win.

The Knicks may have found their point guard of the future. New York used the No. 8 pick in Thursday's NBA Draft on French import Frank Ntilikina.
The Boston Celtics have an offer on the table for Knicks big man Kristaps Porzingis.
But it turned out that Kristaps Porzingis, the 21-year-old, 7-foot-3 freak of athletic nature, is more than a building block or part of the plan. He's a franchise player, a monolith, as close to a unique talent the league has right now, someone nearly as big as Yao Ming yet can hit three pointers and dart to the rim like a small forward.
Thursday night is the most important night for the Knicks franchise since they selected Kristaps Porzingis two years ago.
There is no harm in listening for an offer that might help the Knicks rebuild quicker with more assets.
Porzingis has reportedly not spoken to Knicks executives or coaches since he left for his native Latvia after the season concluded, blowing off his exit interview with team president Phil Jackson.
