He earned this firing with everything he did & didn't do this season

When? He was Zach Lowe's podcast yesterday saying he's not sure until the FO comes out and says he's safe.

Why Mikal Bridges asked Tom Thibodeau to play Knicks’ starters fewer minutes
Thibodeau’s minutes distribution has long been a hot button issue as he’s been accused of overworking players to the detriment of their health.

My mistake I shouldn’t have said Ian I was referencing The athletic article I posted.

That's the first thing that came to mind for me. It's gotta be a last ditch effort to get Bryant before it's too late.
But I've seen others throw out Jay Wright for obvious reasons, and there had been a Dan Hurley rumor floating around that I didn't take seriously. This happening so quickly really surprised me. I can't wait for some beat writers to give us more information.
One note I'd add is that while everyone talked a lot about the Athletic Article that mentioned players complaining about Karl-Anthony Towns. I was surprised there wasn't more mention of all the players' only meetings they talked about, and how they said it was uncommon for a successful team to have so many in a short span.

This shyt got the site slowed the fukk down…..
I am thinking it might be Bryant. The rumor is he is a finalist for the Sun’s job and the FO knows him. They probably seen any potential behind the seen changes since he left too. I never thought they would fire him, I legit thought they would send him to the FO.
Ari (fan from KFTV) made a good point on twitter, that he felt like all the stories and segments coming out recently was a coordinated attack from Thibs to blame KAT. All the "old media" was dumping on KAT in favor of Thibs while all the "new media" guys were pushing back against it.

Nah bro it was time. Carlisle was stunting on him that last series. If they don’t move Thibs this is actually the safe move.
The next question is do they keep KAT and Mikal or not on either of them. I still think KAT is out, but who knows.

Leon Rose has my full trust and support as of now.
Anyway shout out to Thibs. This franchise was in the trenches when he got here and he was one of the guys that helped turn it around. No ill will from me.

Knowing how this FO has rolled so far, I don't think they would've fired Thibs without having a solid backup in place that we didn't see coming. How many other trades/decisions have they pulled that seemed to come out of nowhere

no they didnt. they played the smart game
a mystery box > thibs
That's kind of where we are, though. Every decision we make going forward is to make the finals next season and give us a real shot at winning a chip. It's just as dangerous keeping Thibs.
