The Nuggets let general manager Mark Warkentien go on Tuesday and he is expected to be a candidate for the job in New York should Donnie Walsh decide to make a hire. The New York Post reported recently that Warkentien, a friend of Walsh's, had a preliminary interview with the Knicks last summer after being given permission by the Nuggets owner. http://www.nypost.com/p/sports/knicks/back_rehab_for_antoni_KdF79GJF142agyBxkRUvEP
