Rose et al are clearly enacting a multi-step plan, so it's impossible to evaluate the efficacy of their draft night until the next steps play out.

Most importantly: Do they get Brunson? Clearly that's what they're aiming to do. And lemme tell you, if Leon Rose----former agent to Brunson, ---and who recently brought Brunson's dad on staff--- if THAT Leon Rose proves unable to have accurately guaged Brunson's interest in coming to NY, then he's an incompetant exec and should be fired. The CAA chief was brought here precisely with the thought that he could bring players here. In terms of bringing in players, Brunson should be a chip shot for Leon. If he whiffs on this one, you have to question the whole concept of handing the keys of your organization to an ex-agent with no front office experience. We've seen that play before and it works variably well. If Leon fans on Brunson with all the intel he theoretically possesses and after he places yesterday's sizable bet on it, he's a failure, plain and simple.

Thank you for the extra newsletter. Knicks Film School is the best value and the most entertaining newsletter on Substack! Dolan and Rose still stink though.
