Knicks · Mills out!! Could be an interesting trade deadline? (page 6)

The day after KP & THJ dropped 63 points, Steve Mills got fired. I guess now it's clear who won the trade.

first things first, yes Dolan can screw this up but firing Mills was a must. It was an actual predicate to any further improvement. He was the kiss of death, plus a back stabber.

(Now we just need a competent replacement)

The timing is odd, but not that much odder than what happened with the Jets where they let Macc spend/waste 90mill+ in Cap money and run the draft, only to fire him right after

My own sense is Mills was suggesting trades antithetical to whatever horseshit he told Dolan when they traded KP, or after they were humiliated this Summer. Also in the back of my mind i'm wondering what role Mills should have in any of this. He's the President, not the GM. GM is usually pushing roster, Pres is focused on cap and operations etc.

Perry is the next dead man walking. I suspect Dolan is letting the next president make the call on a new GM. No reason to dump a GM now. Maybe the new president wants Perry based on his drafting (e.g., second round has been commendable, and first is ok given the way other players have evolved too)

Our next good move is to return to being sellers, not buyers. WHo wants Morris (and any of the other rentals)???? let's make a deal, any deal for those guys

Not only will we collect more assets, we'll free up some playing time for the younger guys and hopefully suck enough to be in the running for a top pick which the next FO can hopefully use well

the idea that we had a FO desperate enough to try and squeak out a few more wins (so we end up 8+ in draft) is beyond absurd? For what, to make some older vets feel marginally better as they leave the franchise.

Totally agree and that was my worry. Mills was too focused on trying to save the season when it was clear that the better move is to try to accumulate more assets and tank for the draft. This draft is weak at every position other than the one we need. there are three very good looking point guards and if we can stay in the top 5, we should be able to nab one of them and hopefully solve out pg problem.

True

If Mills were in charge we would draft Johhny FLynn and Rubio ahead of Steph -- c'mon you all know we would do that, right?!?

I read someplace Mills is still going to be on the Board of MSG

WTF!?!

Posted this in another thread but to me it should be this simple. Please watch this 90 seconds with Woj and tell me WHY we should be giving up picks to get some new GM

Dolan creating a new division not associated with the Knicks. He is still holding onto those pictures.

Infinite loop. Please see comments and suggestion

10 Trade available picks for established veterans <=== "What are established vets?"
15 If established veterans == Frank then GOSUB 100
20 PRINT "We like our team"
25 If established veterans == 0 then END
30 goto 10
100 PRINT "Oh Hell no!"
120 RETURN

I get the feeling Perry knows who has always survived Dolan's "purges". Mills might have gotten "Mills'd" in the end. Fitting, if true.
