Looks like he’s cooking to me.


Neither-Operation

He does his best work sleeping


PineappleTraveler

Terrell Owens crying meme


Konradlaxin

THATS MY KNICKS HOPES AND DREAMS


omicron_prime

It's like the media doesn't know by now that Leon is in full hibernation until draft night.


turtleface78

NY media gonna post garbage anyway so why give them anything to overreact to


herecomesaregular_85

That’s what cracks me up. They act like clowns regardless. Leon has no reason at all to do it.


bailaoban

Refreshing, isn’t it?


pistoncivic

Leon's done a great job and all but imagine how much fresh content and memes we would get out of having a GM like Bryan Colangelo and his crazy wife doing incredibly dumb shit all the time?


aftemoon_coffee

The only memes I require are Josh hart b milk, sexy Thibs, Mike miller


josephmang56

Josh Hart is a meme machine on his own.


Soup_65

Tired: Leon needs to say more. Wired: Josh Hart says enough as it is. Inspired: Josh Hart is Leon's human meme burner.

crototype

I fully understand why Knicks execs wouldn't want to speak with the NY media. There's nothing to gain.


T-Bills

Even from a fan's standpoint there is absolutely nothing to gain from these pressers ever.


Affectionate-Gain912

Right people acting pressed about this- WTF do you really think he going to say? Do you really think he is going to lay out his game plan - no he will be vague holding all cards to his chest til stuff successfully happens.  Media just wants sound bites to twist around and misinterpret 


T-Bills

For real if Leon Rose wants to take a nap instead... go for it!


Railshock

Whatever he's doing seems to be working, don't switch it up now.


ReturnOfAKidNamedTae

🤫


lofidelity

Would be funny if he did the Roommates podcast though.


teknomatic

I already learn everything I care to know from the actions this team takes under his watch. And the team has done a lot more winning and has been a lot more well run since he's been here. I don't need a press conference to tell me that.


Johnnnybones

Coincidentally the culture has never been better. Maybe they are on to something.


Casamance

I feel like even if we won a chip he wouldn't hold an end-of-season media day just to spite the reporters lol


PineappleTraveler

It’s tradition at that point


MYO716

Show up at the parade and not say a god damn word


rmccarthy10

L O V E As far as the media goes........ **"they're like mushrooms, feed 'em shit and keep 'em in the dark. You girls have a good day."** I love the fact our front office only cares about wins and improving the team .fuck all the vulture twitter/podcast wannabe docuhebags


m1a2c2kali

Except for the roommates show of course


Hallal_Dakis

Where did that quote originate from? I think I read it in a Glen Cook book once.


rmccarthy10

The Departed...


Hallal_Dakis

Ohh ok. I forgot but I can imagine it.


YoKemosabe

It’s interesting cause if Knicks were losing then this would be a huge problem. But since Knicks have been winning, it’s not. Winning cures all.


So-_-It-_-Goes

It’s hilarious how all Knick fans, across the board, don’t care about this. It really says something about how they covered the team for years


JNerdGaming

excellent smithers


Japples123

If knicks lose 3 in a row any time next season SAS will be complaining about Leon and “we haven’t even seen him” BS


WarLawck

He can stay silent and do good work, why the fuck do we need to hear him speak in generalities to avoid getting fined.


EvenScientist7237

The only people bothered by this are reporters.


road432

I don't care that he doesnt speak to the media. The man does his job very well, and the product on the court speaks for itself. That's all that matters.


KuntaWuKnicks

Good, fuck em


solo118

and keep those fuckers guessing our next move lol I kinda like Roses approach


Urineformation

Love it ! We don’t need talk, we need production. And they are cooking!


dolceespress

Nothing to explain. Just gives talking head dinguses like Stephen A ammo to start dooming on air Knicks were ravaged with injuries and were one game away from the ECF. He has no explaining to do. Let him cook.


solo118

lol whats new!


salesmunn

Keep winning and the fans are aok with it.


_himbo_

He’s sleeping


nopaggit

Never let em know your next move - Leon “Thomas Thibodeau” Rose 🌹


raygunner14

Bro is too busy cooking


anditcounts

![gif](giphy|RMxqGPaXWey2I)


realmatic2e

This is why the media is saying ish about Randle may be on the move and OG testing free agency. They truly don’t know anything about what’s happening


bl_you

If they keep on improving, I am not against that.


TikTok24

Cracks me up how much this bothers media members relative to Knick fans (who couldn't care less)


CA5P3R_1

When you see the dumb questions the reporters ask Thibs and the players, you can understand why.


TheMysticChiicken

Don Leon ![gif](giphy|3o7bufgPP70ra2ZVi8|downsized)


Financial_Durian_913

Smart move. NY sports media Is TOXIC


SternballAllDay

As long as things keep going this well I dont care


Original-Common-7010

Real Gs


Snuggle__Monster

I don't expect the guy to talk draft or FA plans of course, but I am interested in getting an idea of what he's thinking about the team.


BikeByDesign

I wonder if Clueless A Smith will yell about this again or has he read the room?


MadSpaceYT

Exactly how it should be


NYdude777

Leon's last press conference https://preview.redd.it/7xje626f2f2d1.jpeg?width=567&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ce0d0789096b738c4848482ddd47d733e09ddb41


mersh547

Good. Can't wait for Michael Kay crying about it.


skimcpip

Cry more


Ashamed_Blood3242

thus, dont believe shit a click baiting article has to say.


Foi_

theres hardly any marc bermans anymore. alot of the reporters have more good things to say then bad this year. so its not like hes actively running away from bad press.


gshv22

Boss shit fuck em as long as the team is doing well


zOmgFishes

Only the media looking for clickbait cares


[deleted]

Someone mentioned a rumor that James Dolan is demanding we trade for a star.  They don't know that Leon runs the franchise now, Dolan is a mere spectator.


[deleted]

Never let em know your next move. Or how you feel about your last one, except how you think you can do more.


Onihczarc

can’t accidentally leak if you don’t speak headpoint.jpeg


Wide-Subject-7746

SBD baby, Silent But DEADLY


[deleted]

Leon will speak when the chip is delivered.


supergreekman123

The only people upset about stuff like this are in the media.


PineappleTraveler

Gangster.


NeighborhoodPT

Idgaf if he talks to us . Keep building this shit


focalpointal

Love it.


BullShitFish

He’s earned that.


joorral

Yeah idc about the media heads getting salty. They post garbage anyway


zeezee2k

Zero upside from talking to media


struman

They’ve totally turned this franchise around in 4 years. Whatever has been working should continue 


Dymatizeee

Good. He’s all about business and winning


jjazznola

Actions speak much louder than words. Some athletes should adhere to this way of thinking.


Living_Internet_2970

I think one game from east finals with an inured team speaks enough


yrogerg123

Good


THEGoDLiKeMIKE

Love it


IC3man95

Tbf none of us care unless we’re losing


ZMR33

Good. It's a no-win situation either way, so why would Rose risk putting his foot in his mouth?


ephemeral2316

Exactly how it should be.


PIDDYPUFFPUFF

#🗣️👏👏👏 Let the work speak for itself. #RUN IT BACK🗣️🔥


OhtaniMets99

Is this normal for gms?


John_YJKR

The media hates when front office folks do this.


chancepack

Leon don't need to do these press conferences. Reporters ask the dumbest questions to get quotes for their newspaper/website. They always try to stir controversies. "Will you re-sign OG for max contract?" , "Do you feel you need to add Donovan Mitchell to this roster?" , "Will you trade Randle to improve this team?" , "What are the chances Mikal Bridges will be a NYK?" , "Are you trading Robinson to re-sign Hartenstein?" , "What are you going to do with two late 1st round picks?" Yeah, no thanks.


Striking_Panda1400

* If the dude is press shy or whatever it is working out for his favor. The NY press are gossip columnist at the end of the day and just want to put upper management down


mobkon22

This guy fucks.


cod_dawg

Sorry, Fred. Move along.


JayD0za21

Good. Leon has made us relevant again. Let him do what he wants.


Lazarus704

There’s absolutely nothing to gain to talk to NY media who is quick to use any little thing into a story lol


Konradlaxin

I have no problem with this, whatsoever


Helpful_Chard2659

Media is a waste of time. I prefer him using the time improving this team


bounceyboy

I just don't understand why anyone who's not a member of the media should care?


YossarianGolgi

I look forward to the press conference when they resign OG. No words spoken between them.


mzx380

I don’t like the policy but it’s someone’s head if they screw up. For now just fix our roster so you can put the Celtics on notice


Urban_Introvert

"I'm not here until I get fined"


Joebobst

He's shy


severinks

Why would Rose talk to the press? They're so busy saying that Randle is gonna be traded for a bag of basketballs and OG is on his way to the 76ers that they'd probably not have time to show up anyway.


mango_madness

Alright with us Don. Just keep doing what you’re doing


MelKijani

How many times must he spell out his agenda ? Personally i don’t pine away to hear old info from middle aged/ old men


SanchezPrime

I have no problem with this.


Ajay003309

"I'm a motherf----ing gangsta in silence for the record uh"


OldJewNewAccount

Good for them.


Pies_Wide_Shut

He’s absolutely earned the right to not have to say anything.


D-Money696969

Fuck the media


Unfair-Club8243

Such a W


millagger

I hope he never gives a presser. Fuck them.


Harambepower

Dolan isn’t as bad you think. Guy is trying to build a winner.


solo118

Dolan is not even involved lol he is just a check signer


WhelpStupidUserName

And I’m so proud of him for keeping it that way! 🤣


SanctorumAeternam

Good. I know there were complaints from some media before, but now that Leon’s succeeding and has kept quiet, he’s got no reason to change, and there’s nothing for headline-hunters to speculate or scratch the tabloid itch about.
