00:00I think players and agents know what they're getting into with the Knicks ownership. I don't
00:04think that is going to change. How the fans feel, we'll see. But if they struggle, this is going to
00:11be the main thing that comes up at all times. It will get pinned as the reason why this team
00:16is
00:17not living up to expectations. It'll be pinned as the reason why this team wasn't able to get
00:23another championship. The ownership has made a decision to put the onus on themselves. James
00:28put an onus on himself to say, if this doesn't work out, I'm going to take some blame. I'm going
00:34to take the lion's share of the blame because it's going to be the same team that came back
00:40minus Mitchell Robinson, who was sacrificed for the second apron. And the second apron
00:45is James Dolan's mandate. And it's also going to be with players who have this contract extension
00:50on their minds. And they have that contract extension on their minds because James Dolan
00:55doesn't want to go into the second apron and doesn't want to pay these players what they're
00:59asking for.
