There were many checkpoints along the way where decisive action would've eliminated this issue."</p> </p> The Knicks quickly released a statement from Dolan which implied that it's time for the commissioner to move on. The Knicks seem disappointed Stern won't let go, especially because he could be hurting their appeal. -- <font color="#000000">New York Post</font></p> </p> </p> [*]"We have high regard for the commissioner," Dolan said. "Right now, what we can all agree on is that the best thing for the Knicks is to get on the court and win some basketball games." -- <font color="#000000">New York Times</font></div> </div>
