They're both gone, so it's a bit of a moot point, but found this blurb interesting.
I had mentioned a while back, a friend of BeezKid plays Call of Duty with Damyean Dotson, and Dot had shared some insider info on Mitchell Robinson's off-season/workouts and his work ethic and development (physical and skills).
A few days ago, the friend texted my son. Dotson said he'd been told not to speak of any Knicks dysfunction while with the club, but since he left, he shared with the Knicks-fan buddy that he and Steve Mills HATED each other.
One thing he shared, in particular, was how Mills one day called a bunch of the young Knicks players into a closed-door meeting and told them they were "the future of the Knicks."
Dotson was not allowed in that meeting, he said.

I liked Dotson and think he had some upside potential, but hearing this sort of thing, I'm betting it's just the tip of the iceberg. Makes me hopeful (dare I say thankful?) that the new front office leadership will be a huge departure from this kind of crap.
Happy Friday!
Jon, was a bit back ... my son's friend got an online invite to play CoD with a guy who claimed to be DD. The friend is a huge, informed Knicks fan. He quizzed the guy and determined it was really Dotson. It went from there.
In the headset, he'd work in Knicks questions here and there and Dotson told him that the rest of the team rarely if ever saw Mitchell because he was hunkered down, working exclusively with Kenny Payne. Dot said Mitch had put on ... can't recall now if it was 10 or 15 pounds of muscle, but the message was clear.
He also mentioned that Mitch and Payne didn't even sit down for meals with the other guys during whatever period of time this was. Apparently took their meals apart from others.
He painted a very serious picture. :)
That's fair. I guess pertinent would be to know precisely when this meeting occurred. Didn't get that piece of info.

I'd rather have Dotson than Bullock still all things considered. Curious about what else was shared about Mitch.

Oh right I do recall you sharing now. Thanks again!
Honestly would be great. The number of players who are long term pieces of the puzzle on the current knicks roster you can probably list on one hand. Good that Payne is putting in a lot of time with Mitch.

Than he brings in Dennis Smith jr,who he probably wanted to select instead of Frank.
Wasn't he already fired earlier in the year?

Will he still be the Knicks' G.M. next year?

Oh shit! My mistake. I'm on drugs. I was thinking of Scott Perry, not Steve Mills.
Ignore this. I was thinking of Scott Perry. Steve Mills is yucko!! What piece of crap that guy was.
Nobody is commenting on this video??? Did anyone click the link. Jon, bulkier? He looks like a different person. I don’t want to say the word but I know what many will think. I need to see a clip of him playing ASAP.

I was thinking the same thing about nobody even commenting. Dude looks absolutely huge in that video. Looks nothing like him
Thanks. Just saw the one you’re talking about. Phew...Mitch had me worried!
