The Most Controversial Trade In New York Knicks History

In this edition of Dime Machine Flashbacks, we continue on our historic journey known as the Dimeline and explore the most controversial trade in New York Knicks history, getting Earl "The Pearl" Monroe.  Given the massive rivalry between the Baltimore Bullets and the Knicks at that time, as detailed in the recent two-part episode we did, Earl Monroe was seen as the enemy. He was also seen as an isolation player coming into a team that was famous for their ball movement. How would it work? Would he be accepted?  In this episode, Dime Dropper is joined by frequent contributor and New Yorker Fabian PerspecTV @fabianperspectv  to talk about the trade, the first half of the 1971-72 season for the Knicks, and Earl's week to week progression.  Follow Us On Social Media!!
