Thibs needed to change some. 80’s basketball values don’t work with today’s culture of players.

Current Knicks players seemed to buy into the culture for the most part, and it's not like they weren't a cpl games way from the finals :manny:




We need a NFL/Not For Long iteration for the NBA cuz these coaches shelf lives are damn near non-existent now, even in success :patrice:

That Celtics series sealed his fate.

Game 5 they got blown out with Tatum done. They didn’t put them away.

And even though they’ve won series’s over the past few years, they choked in close out games at home.
Game 1 Pacers sealed this fukk nikka’s fate. I’ll never forgive him…

Great move on the Knicks part. Certain coaches aren't built to take you over the top. Thibs is not the coach to push young players to the next level, sort of like Kenny Atkinson with the Nets and now the Cavs.

Need a coach who will take them over the hump.
the Knicks have young players?

My guess is that the ECF Game 1 loss set the Knicks back tremendously and when they couldn’t overcome it to win the series, that became the reason they needed to let Thibs go.

I suppose you could point to a number of reasons to fire anyone. But I think that loss was a catalyst.
he had a nail in the coffin for almost 3 months. he needed a deep finals run he refused to change until it was too late
