Perceiving the dysfunction and drama surrounding the New York Knicks led Kristaps Porzingis to skip his exit meetings with management.

The Knicks were involved in several stories that drew attention for things that happened off of the basketball court this season. 

Phil Jackson examined trading Carmelo Anthony before the trade deadline and said he would be "better off somewhere else." 

Charles Oakley was physically removed from Madison Square Garden during a game. 

Porzingis in February discussed one issue plaguing the team when he said that there was confusion from "top to bottom" due to multiple changes in schemes by Jeff Hornacek.
