the new york knicks should instead be called the "new york knocks" since they are "truly" knocking on the door of an nba championship.

For the sake of urgency and transparency, I thought it was best to append this note to the draft in question. And of course, for safety's sake, PLEASE do not publish this post without first removing this attachment.\nI have some concerns regarding the author of this draft, Tim from the Vancouver bureau. Jon has made it clear that all sports-related Bluesky posts are strictly the domain of the Calcutta and Chicago offices. Together, our teams have put in a great deal of effort to ensure that we can provide round-the-clock sports posts on the jonbois.bluesky.social account that capture Jon's voice, editorial direction, and creative vision. Jon has made a significant investment in the form of these teams, and he expects a high-quality and cohesive product in return.\nAt 10 p.m. Calcutta time, I was alerted by the Chicago office that Tim – who is strictly limited to authoring \"went to the store\" posts – submitted a draft about the Knicks game in progress, which, of course, would fall under the purview of their office. Having reviewed the draft, I am sorry to conclude that not only is Tim overstepping his boundaries, he lacks any understanding of form. \"New York Knocks\" is a poor attempt at Jon's finely-tuned style of shitposting, and his inability to grasp this style is betrayed by his decision to place \"truly\" within quotation marks. It's quite possible that Tim was in fact trying to riff earnestly without any sense of self-awareness.\nFurther, his baffling decision to punctuate the post reflects a complete disregard for Jon's Bluesky style guide. \nTim is out of his depth. We have flagged this multiple times. His editor at the Vancouver desk has attempted to coach him multiple times. Posts beyond \"went to the store\" simply fall outside of his core competencies. \nI understand that Jon prefers not to interfere with edit/personnel decisions, but I believe we need to escalate matters.\nRahul", "image": { "$type": "blob", "ref": { "$link": "bafkreihbiija5a3o2nyan646duvfwlzl22af3vden3jfrgbgngh7j7h5fm" }, "mimeType": "image/jpeg", "size": 512777 }, "aspectRatio": { "width": 1576, "height": 920 } } ] }, "langs": [ "en" ], "createdAt": "2025-04-27T17:59:18.077Z" } }
