Knicks fire Tom Thibodeau

Yes, there were the offense, the starting group that they invested so much in wasn't good. They had a negative net rating from January 1st on. They weren't very good in the playoffs, right? But This team, Jalen Brunson missed a month at the end of the year. Mitchell Robinson was gone for most of the year.

I think the biggest knock, if you're going to talk about it with Tibbs, is he didn't really experiment with a five-out lineup. Didn't do Jalen Brunson, Deuce McBride, OG Ananobi, Mikael Bridges, and Carl Anthony Towns. That's probably the biggest knock in terms of lineup experimentation. But... give the guy another another give him a summer to to stew on it to think about it um i just i i'm

The thing that Denver did that I love so much, the Denver story is my favorite story in recent NBA history. They had a coach and their core players. They kept them together for seven, eight, nine years, and they finally won. They finally got over the hump. And not everything can be fixed by one name, by one addition, by one new voice.

And that was the other thing a lot of people talking about, kind of the reports are that the team needed a new voice. Well, of the core guys, Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart are the guys that have been around for a while, and they're the biggest Tibbs supporters. Everybody else that's in the core has been here for a year, a year and a half.

So what new voice, like what more is the time for the new voice? I just think, listen, Tibbs, there was flaws this year with his team. But ultimately, this franchise has not been very good for the larger part of 25 years. And I thought he deserved another year to try to rectify any type of qualms or issues that this team had this year.

So if we're going to assume that they have a greener grass candidate out there, it would be a bit of a surprise, right? Like Michael Malone's a great coach. Is he any different in his approach than Tibbs? No.

He's outspoken. I don't know if ownership will love how outspoken he is. Then you have what? James Borrego, another CAA guy. Offensive mind. His defenses have been not the greatest. Hasn't had much success as a head coach, obviously, in Charlotte. They didn't do him any favors. Sure. There's this, right?
