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?

Yeah, Coach Pop Pedigree. Yes, and then you have a guy like Taylor Jenkins, another guy that was probably a scapegoat in Memphis. We don't know if we know the whole story there, but kind of similar to Tibbs. Tibbs is firing. Apparently, people didn't think he did enough. And then after that, you're getting into first-year head coaches.

You're getting into Johnny Bryant, Sean Sweeney, somebody I really like. But you're going to say that a first-year coach potentially could take this team over the top. Like, maybe it could. Maybe that's a risk to take, right? Micah Norrie, he's another guy in Minnesota. Been with Cat. Great personality. Been up for many jobs. But again, would be a first-year head coach. So...

You kind of look around and you're like, of the proven coaches, unless we're forgetting somebody who's out there, Jay Wright, the Villanova Connection stuff, for sure. Jay Wright was a great college coach. Does that mean he'll be a great NBA coach?

I tend to agree. I tend to agree, and I'm not sure it works for the Knicks and their – They're wanting to keep things in-house. I don't know if that's conducive to that. Listen, I'll say this. I think over the last 10 months, more so than the previous four years, the suits in New York have taken major risks, trading for Mikael Bridges, trading for Carl Anthony Towns, firing Tibbs.

Yeah, I think the big thing is maximizing the offense. They invested so much in the five, Jalen Brunson, Carl Anthony Towns, OG Ananobi, Mikael Bridges, Josh Hart, giving up first-round picks for basically all those big contracts for all those guys. Obviously, Jalen Brunson took a pay cut, but... That group was not consistently good. That group struggled as the season went on.
