If Melo is smart he'll leave the Knicks/Dolan, the team I've rooted for since I was 5 years old, and join Noah and the Bulls in Chicago.
The Knickerbockers are a rudderless franchise w/ Dolan at the helm, and like many an incompetent owner in many different sports, he just won't allow someone to come in and make the necessary changes.
One of my former clients works at MSG and the stuff he talks about regarding the culture there is simply mindboggling. It's Jr. Dolan's little fiefdom, filled w/ paranoia, backstabbing. and political nonsense.
Melo should leave, IMO- whether Jackson takes the job or not.
