James Dolan has a great eye for talent

One owner’s tireless quest for greatness.

James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.

The New York Knicks had an off night, so owner James Dolan decided to let his hair down and hobnob with some of Hollywood's biggest stars at the Golden Globe Awards. We think there might be something more to it.

It’s a business trip, isn’t it? You sly dog. That James Dolan, never passing up an opportunity to improve his team.

Obviously we know what Meryl Streep can bring to the Knicks. She’s a proven winner with an established track record.

Since you’re already there, you want to add Jennifer Lawrence. We feel she’s really hitting her stride now, and is the kind of franchise cornerstone a team can build around. She’s probably part of a package deal with Bradley Cooper, but he could be a good shooting guard.

Who else do you think Dolan is scouting at the Globes?
