Even without the picks, Chicago would have a better fit for his system roster-wise.

D’Antoni went to the highest bidder. It was about the money from the start. How can anyone look and the Bulls roster, then look at the Knicks roster and come to the conclusion that the Knicks are the better team.

…only if your wearing those green money sign glasses like that pimp in all green in the Snoop video. D’Antoni knows he probably ain’t getting a ring (not with his “style” of play anyways) so, might as well get that paper.

D’Antoni’s mustache looked really ticked off when that skinny NBA dude revealed the Knicks got the 6th pick.

It’s an ego/money thing, don’t you see? If he can turn around the sinking franchise that is the New York Knicks, he would have done something neither NBA great Isiah Thomas nor Hall of Fame coach Larry Brown were capable of doing. Can you imagine what his asking price during re-negotiations/wooing will be after that occurs?

Mike’s not in it to win it. If that were the case, he wouldn’t be in NY in the first place.
