Leon Rose has spent quarantine locking in a number of well-regarded front office personnel, and the sensible hires that have been made thus far signal that the new team president actually has a chance to right the sinking ship that is the New York Knicks.
Rose was officially hired at the very beginning of March, bringing with him the specter of relationships as former basketball co-head at Creative Arts Agency. He has strong relationships with tons of players, many of whom he worked for as an agent, so the thinking was that he could eventually convince a superstar or two to take their talents to Madison Square Garden, the arena every player seems to see as their favorite place to play, just not as part of the home team.
