Steve Mills is gone. And you won’t find many basketball fans in New York upset about that. Beyond James Dolan, nobody has represented the Knicks over the past two decades of losing more than Steve Mills. Just look at every press conference picture after a major signing, trade, or hire, and like a twisted version of Forrest Gump, notice how Mills is in almost every single photo.
While Mills has been with Madison Square Garden for much of the past two decades, he was officially named team president on June 28, 2017, after Phil Jackson was fired.
