I somewhat agree with you, although the average person would not react that violently. If you believe the Knicks though then I wouldn't agree with you.
“The idea that Spike Lee is a victim because we have repeatedly asked him to not use our employee entrance and instead use a dedicated VIP entrance – which is used by every other celebrity who enters The Garden – is laughable,” the team said. “It’s disappointing that Spike would create this false controversy to perpetuate drama. He is welcome to come to The Garden anytime via the VIP or general entrance; just not through our employee entrance, which is what he and Jim agreed to last night when they shook hands.”
C'mon. What is the actual purpose of that statement by the Knicks? How does that possibly help the basketball team? It is beyond stupid and quite literally a self-inflicted wound.
Dear Prospective Free Agents:
We will unnecessarily trade away actual good players under a misguided hope of luring you to our franchise. We reject the notion that a good organization, players or coaches are helpful in building a good team. And
make no mistake, we will belittle & publicly embarrass anyone regardless of loyalty, profile, money, power or prestige. Signing a big contract with us won't make you any less susceptible to petty whims, simply remember whomever signs the checks will always be most important. The numerous players and coaches whose careers have ended or virtually ended here is no coincidence (Allen Houston, ECurry, McDyess, Marbury, Amare, Carmelo, Isiah, Phil J ) and representative of these facts.
Without remorse & quite possibly vindictively,
James Dolan
P.S. We've included two free tickets to see the ironically named JD & The
Straight Shot. Consider the pain of listening to this as insight into what your soul will feel like as a member of the NYK.
