Not saying he was perfect by any stretch but um did this team have (realistic) chip expectations that I was unaware of? Gotta be the first coach ever to be fired after taking a squad further than it has been in a qtr century.
If it its their honest assessment that this was as far as he could take them, should they just let him keep coaching next year for fun? Mind you, the team president is his former agent and really good friend.

Got that organization further than they had been since The Matrix was in theaters. Nasty, nasty work.

Sometimes, a team is just better.

Bringing in a new coach won't fix your roster construction. Your two best players are turnstiles on defense and one is a midget. The Knicks biggest problem is that they can't get out of their own way.

I hope Mark Jackson gets this job, with all due respect.

We all know:

THIBS AIN’T COACHING SHYT

-Keeps Josh Hart in the startling line up forever. Dude makes nothing but bonehead dummy plays and fouls.

-Keeps Shamat on the bench.., when he needs 3s.

-Allows Brunson to iso every single play for 23 seconds

I mean, I don’t have time to explain all the ways this dude can’t coach for shyt.

JB Bickerstaff would’ve had the Knicks in the NBA Finals. And that is a fact.

Milwaukee hangs up immediately.

Teams with their franchise player wanting to leave rarely get a great trade return. So good luck to them.

For example, Lakers got Lamar Odom, Caron Butler and a 1st round pick (Jordan Farmar) for Shaq and Lakers were known for fleecing other teams.

No coach has come in after Thibs and had the team performing better than they were with him.

Knicks about to have a rude awakening next season.

“A team is just better”

Is not an excuse for not making any adjustments…
