Dolan's Complaint

With hours to go before free agency, workers scurried to finish the "Blueprint for Greatness" billboard at 34th and 8th....22 stories of sheer audacity....across from Madison Square Garden. Meanwhile, the Nets showed off their version of the promotion.

As the day wore on, more and more media gaped and gasped at Mikhail Prokhorov and Jay-Z pushing their faces into the board rooms of Cablevision, the Knicks corporate parent.  The in-your-face message wasn't lost on Jim Dolan, the Knicks' owner. He called Jay-Z and the NBA to complain...to no avail. The league had no problem with the promotion.
