Knicks May Hold Back Big Move By Rangers

Rick Carpiniello at the Rangers Report wonders if the Rangers are going to be an after thought with all the focus of the Dolans being focused on the Knicks acquiring LeBron James...

"Problem is, this July 1 reminds me a bit of July 1, 1997, because of LeBron James. In 1997, all of MSG’s efforts were aimed at Patrick Ewing, who would be a free agent. This year they’re aimed at King James, only about 1,000,000,000 times more so. And I wonder if that will at all affect what the Rangers try to do that day. I wonder, if the opportunity to do something big arose, if the Rangers would have trouble getting the go-ahead from upper management/ownership, because they’ll all be in Akron or involved with James and his agents."

...wow I never even thought of this scenario. But as Carp goes on to say, the cap will probably be the reason for the Rangers lack of movement this summer not LeBron.
