This newsletter really nicely encapsulates why, despite this season being a massive disappointment, I haven't been too down about it. What will the Knicks do? I have no idea. But, unlike many times in the past 20 years, they have a variety of options for how to proceed.

It's hard (impossible?) to predict what is going to work in the NBA (see: Nets, Brooklyn; Lakers, Los Angeles; et al), but maintaining flexibility means you have a chance to try *something*, whatever that something is. And if that something doesn't work out, you try something else.

My hope is this WWW bending Dolan's ear is just a shot across the bow at Thibs to say, "Dude...time to show that you really did take time to reflect after things went sideways in Minnesota and can be bend a little toward playing the kids in a no-playoffs situation". I think these last 23 games will be a real chance for Thibs to show that. My gut tells me Thibs will say "F-You" and be the stubborn goat that he has always been. This will end with Thibs as the fall guy and drying his tears with the benjamins from the remaining contract payout. BTW...best tweet of the weekend in case you missed it: https://twitter.com/TommyBeer/status/1495246516885278729/photo/1
