New York Knicks General Manager Scott Layden, Head Coach Donnie, and owner James Dolan sat in the best seats in Madison Garden.
Little Dolan sat in the middle, sprawled in his chair with his legs spread.
Everyone in New York City knew he was a "good boy" who did drugs, drank heavily, street raced, and partied with young models. Even before his old man died, he was already a famous playboy in New York City's high society.
Now that the massive MSG Group was in his hands, everyone just hoped he wouldn't embarrass the Knicks too badly.
To his left sat the team's General Manager and President of Basketball Operations, Scott Layden. He was a famous "basketball legacy"—his father was Frank Layden, the former Head Coach and General Manager for the Jazz. This kind of nepotism was rampant in the NBA, where it was all too common for one person to become a head coach and get their whole family on the payroll.
