New York Knicks owner James Dolan expressed concerns about the team's financial strategy as they approach the offseason. During an appearance on the Craig Carton Show, Dolan indicated that while he wants to retain the championship-winning roster, exceeding salary cap limits would not be feasible. He emphasized the importance of staying under the second apron to avoid severe penalties, which could hinder the team's ability to make sign-and-trade deals.
