As the New York Knicks continue their search for a new head coach after firing Tom Thibodeau, they are focused on two names, sources tell @samamick.bsky.social:

Mike Brown and Taylor Jenkins.

Who should they hire?

Mike Brown.

kmykadeschain.bsky.social•13 days ago

They should (re)hire Tom Thibodeau w/ an apology and raise.
Other farfetched but sentimental picks include Jeff Van Gundy and Pat Riley.

Bucks should be hiring Tom Thibodeau to coach Giannis.

playest.bsky.social•12 days ago

I would say either bud or vogal

Recycle. Recycle. Recycle.

brettpep.bsky.social•12 days ago

Haha, typical Knicks. Neither of these guys will get you to the Finals.

Anybody who thinks either name is an upgrade over Thibs is plain crazy.

100%

Not sure why it would be better to keep a coach that the players made clear they didn’t want to play for (otherwise he’d never have been fired).

lwshenval.bsky.social•12 days ago

He wins?

deedubs66.bsky.social•11 days ago

Not if the players turn against him, which again, is what they obviously made clear would happen, otherwise he wouldn’t have been fired.

They should look at Monty Williams.

blazersunitracker.bsky.social•12 days ago

They should look at Terry Stotts.

Brunson = Dame
Bridges > CJ
Hart > Turner
OG > Aminu
Towns > Nurkic/Leonard/Kanter/whoever

Terry would take that roster far.

shawnjohn.bsky.social•12 days ago

Good call

blazersunitracker.bsky.social•12 days ago

Lil’ bonus: Terry is quite familiar with Carlisle and how he coaches. Could be helpful in getting past Indiana.

I am not about to like this comment. 😂😂😂

What Monty would do is bring in a big PG (like Josh Giddy) move Brunson to the 2, Mikal/OG at 3, Kat at 4 and Robinson at 5
He would sign a backup center too.

He like Shamet and Payne.

jaybru4.bsky.social•13 days ago

Tom Thibodeau is the best coach available!

candymanchek.bsky.social•12 days ago

They should get Malone and trade for Jokic

sternhold.bsky.social•13 days ago

JVG

alumnati.bsky.social•13 days ago

Both these guys were better than he ever was within the last 4 years

frankmurphy.bsky.social•13 days ago

Umm neither

Speaking as a former season ticket holder of the Portland Trail Blazers I give permission to the @ny-knicks.bsky.social to interview Chauncey Billups.
