I was all in for Ewing being coach
All his years as an assistant has to have amounted for something and Steve Clifford is a great coach to be mentored by

Whether Melo knows where he stands with them or not he's not going anywhere. He has all the power until his contract is up. That other stuff is just petty **** he can easily ignore. This ain't gonna be a Starbury and Pringles situation. Melo aint getting DNP coach's decision for half the season.
As for this snake talk how is Phil a snake? He's publicly criticizing and questioning Melo's play. Once he came on it wasn't even like he was 100% on board with Melo being the man here. He simply acknowledged he's the best player and gave him the contract he deserved. All common sense. Being a snake is doing dirt behind somebody's back. Phil blatantly and brazenly does it in the open and then acts like nothing is wrong

Melo's not going anywhere until he decides he wants to go somewhere. I'm not talking about public criticism I'm talking about the sources close to Phil who were reporting that Phil wants him gone. That's snakeish in my book if that what was going on. It was behind his back because he could have called Melo and had a sit down instead of running his mouf to other people to get the word out. Not for nothing criticizing Melo's game to the media and you haven't approached the player, that plays for you, and talking behind someone's back are both snakeish to me. Say it with your chest Phil!
Yeah man, all of that is irrelevant.

That's why we're cursed. Probably didn't even give him a call
That's the move

I don't remember the exact quote but he said something along the line of "It would be a dream come true to coach the Knicks"That's why we're cursed. Probably didn't even give him a call
Like come on man, how do you say no to that?

You know that's another one of my gripes. I've never liked how the organization has treated some of our former players. After Fisher got canned not a single mention or report of us even reaching out to Ewing or Mark Jackson? Not necessarily saying they were the right choice but at least feign interest. Meanwhile BD blows his knee out and they gave him a job asap. Wally Szczerbiak looking cozy behind the desk too.

Well Phil is more than just the GM by title.
I don't believe you really think any GM would've been fine.
I can see yall in here crying if Billy King was our GM.

Bruh you gotta start quoting properly
I.e. when he retires.
Cuz what you talking about is a fantasy.
Imma stick to what is said from the mouths of these men. Not reporters who get paid to do this or unseen sources.
Wasting Melo's time when the media asks him these questions. His reply should constantly be I don't know what you talking about, Phil aint say that to me.
I mean peep that vid with Franky Ice. He's complaining about Phil talking through the media. Dude is the media
Y'all just falling for that NY basketball media drama.
I.e. when he retires.
Cuz what you talking about is a fantasy.
You buying too much in to what the media reports. I don't indulge in that bull ****.

This all harkens back to my original post If these people are manufacturing drama that are supposed to be 'sources close to Phil', he needs to check those sources. Melo has a NTC and he ain't leaving unless he wants to, that's reality, not fantasy.

Miami won't release him until after the playoffs.
Lets sign Bosh when he gets dumped by Miami
They're making sure he won't be able to join a team for the playoffs.
