The question of Knicks coach Mike Woodson’s job security has been the main topic lately along with with Carmelo Anthony stay. Of course the two go hand in hand with the Knicks doing whatever it takes to keep Anthony, it’s assumed they would ask if he wants Woodson fired. Well it was revealed that Anthony met with James Dolan recently which raised some eyebrows.
Carmelo Anthony said he met with Knicks owner James Dolan after Thursday’s loss to the Trail Blazers, but claimed it didn’t revolve around coach Mike Woodson’s job status. And they had tea. “I hope I can meet with the owners sometimes,” Anthony said. “I met with him. It wasn’t nothing serious. Just a generic conversation, just talking. I had tea. He had tea. That’s it. We didn’t get into details about anything. Just a conversation we had.” Whether they discussed Anthony’s impending free agency — or the fact the Knicks can offer him a three-year, $75 million contract extension on Feb. 22 — is unclear. But Anthony praised Woodson, who again is on thin ice. Anthony indicated the players have to stop squawking about game plans, and start executing them and playing harder.
