[Katz] Knicks will not make team president Leon Rose available to reporters following the trade deadline. This week, The Athletic filed three requests for Rose to hold a press conference, a custom for execs post-deadline. Rose hasn’t spoken to independent media on the record since 2021

He’s sleeping, let the man rest. Seriously though, I wish we heard from him more publicly, but if it’s not his style then so be it.
Leon really hates speaking to the media
Legitimately who cares? You’re not getting insight from him speaking. He’s not gonna say “Yeah we thought we could get KD” or whatever and it’ll just be something along the lines of “we like our team, but felt Josh would help enhance what we’ve built and will continue to build.”
Leon made his move. Now he sleeps. When Donovan Mitchell becomes available he will awaken
