James Dolan says he doesn't 'really like owning teams' but somehow still refuses to sell the Knicks

Here's an idea, Dolan. Maybe just sell your teams?

Knicks fans have had a tenuous relationship with owner James Dolan, to put it kindly.

To put it in not-so-kind terms, they might actually hate that man. And honestly, it’s hard to blame them. He’s embarrassed the team and the fanbase at every single turn.

Whether it was the incident with Charles Oakley, or his absolutely feckless stance on George Floyd’s killing, or the moments where he actually confronts fans for criticizing him, the dude has just been a terrible steward of the franchise. Fans have literally been begging for him to sell the team for years at this point.

And now, today, we find out the dude doesn’t even actually enjoy owning the team. Literally. He said he doesn’t like it.

In a sprawling New York Times profile on Dolan surrounding his new Las Vegas Sphere — which suddenly is a whole lot less appealing — he talked about his business empire and what the Sphere means to it.

He was also asked if owning other franchises was in his future and that’s when he dropped this gem.

Y’all. This man really said he doesn’t really like owning sports teams. Yet, somehow, he still owns the Rangers and the Knicks.

Geez, man. What an unfortunate problem. If only there were some sort of solution where Dolan could just be rid of the multi-billion dollar assets that plague him oh so much.

OH, WAIT. There is. He could sell.

But he’s refused to sell either — particularly the Knicks. We’re not even a full year away from him telling us he has “no plans whatsoever” to sell the Knicks anytime soon. No plans, y’all. And here he is pulling this stunt? No way, man.

James Dolan is a troll. And, unfortunately for you, Knicks fans, you’re his target audience. I’m not going to lie — I’m so thankful I’m not one of you.

But, also, sorry your favorite team’s owner is a complete jerk.
