Tough call... What makes them look bad is our overly secretive owner!!! They may know a player is hurt for weeks before things come to a head!
Melo's knee could be career threatening for all we know but do you think Dolan will have them announce that around the time ticket prices for next year have been announced!
They could've advised Amare to sit months ago...the minutes restrictions shows they knew something was up and Woody even said "we gotta forget about him being a 35 minute per player" when Stat was slated to return...again this is an indication they knew something but what power do they have?
Doctors simply advise its up to Gm's coaches and owner to heed the advice
