This is the team.

And do we view it as that?

Like the Yankees, World Series of Busts you mentioned, wanted to hang the championship banner.

Anything short of an NBA championship is a disappointing season for the New York Knicks.

Is that how we're taking it right now?

Mike Brown better know that.

Listen, Thibodeau took him to the Eastern Conference Finals for the first time in 30 years.

I would think that's the expectation, right?

NBA Finals is an extreme disappointing season.

And when you had to go to the bench, you didn't have anything to lean back on throughout the season.

I mean, there's an argument that you sign him so you can trade him.

He could run into one every now and then.

I was trying to give him tips for helping making sure we get another championship.

Yeah, no, coming off that World Series, to have the winter meetings be lifeless is disappointing as a fan.

I can tell you.

So is that something that you could see being re-brought up?

I've heard things as much, like maybe a trade.

trade deadline, other kind of deadlines set around that baseball winter meeting?

Yeah, I mean, and you say unwilling, and we argue unwilling, and I get it, but the Pittsburgh Pirates just signed their first multi-year contract in years.
