Knicks lmao
By s y Go To Postwhy lmao? Interviewing a good amount of coaches is a good idea. Blatt is a good coach too.
My 'LMAO' was for the totality of Knicks news.
Blatt got a raw deal in Cleveland but it also exposed how unprepared he was to handle stars. KP gonna be subtweetihg him before the regular season starts.
Mark Jackson is a dumb radioactive trash can.
Mike Woodson is self explanatory.
You dont gotta interview everyone who submits their resume.
Blatt got fired by LBJ, LBJ also wanted to fire Spo. Nobody is prepared to handle LBJ's ego.
Mark Jackson still built up the Warriors, despite his faults, is a good motivator but probably shouldn't get the jobbed.
The Knicks have looked the best they ever had in a long time under Woodson. He actually forced Melo to play the 4. Who's to say he hasn't gotten better?
Fizdale got a raw deal in Memphis and may be a good coach, I don't know anything about Stackhouse.
The Knicks seem pretty deliginet in their coaching search right now.

Blatt didn't even sign up to coach that team either. He thought he was getting some young guys not the LBJ empire.

Hiring Mark Jackson into all their current turmoil would be a disaster. Mark tried to demonize everyone who wasn't him or playing minutes.
Fizdale is someone most teams should interview if they can imo, that'd be a great hire for NY.
KP is a full blown brat and in New York? Blatt would be minced, that man is not built for that.
Woodson hire would be hilarious, he had success with a team that isn't there anymore, and while he was their most successful coach since Van Gundy, retreading cause he was relatively good for the knicks once upon a time is such a Knicks move.
The Knicks are gonna have their pick of coaches and I'm fairly confident they won't pick Jackson. No way he interviews better than all those other guys.
By Smokey Go To PostIs Woodson a bad coach though? I thought he was let go because the Knicks were being Knicks?He was fired by Phil Jackson who went on to hire 3 inferior coaches. I'd have no problem with Woodson again. I don't really get the meme about him being a bad coach.
By masud Go To PostBut the warriors got better every year under Jackson!
Better than Jackson…
By Moris Go To PostHiring Mark Jackson into all their current turmoil would be a disaster. Mark tried to demonize everyone who wasn't him or playing minutes.woodson wasn't actually bad, never got why they got rid of him.

By unknown Go To Postwoodson wasn't actually bad, never got why they got rid of him.Didn't know the triangle would be my guess
By unknown Go To Postwoodson wasn't actually bad, never got why they got rid of him.His offense was pretty bad. But he was ok.
He's another guy that is actually just a really good assistant coach. Not really a head coach.
By masud Go To PostOur only good season in like 20 years? I'd prefer handful of other candidates but Woodson is a good coach he deserves another job.
Not with the Knicks
By The Frankman Go To PostHey he's a better coach than Fisher, Rambis or Hornacek. We never got to see him coach in New York without Melo fuckery, Dantoni couldn't survive it either and he looks pretty solid now huh? He did a very good job with that young Atlanta team it's possible he could do the same here. Like I said I have others higher on the list than him but I don't get why he's some sort of joke. He's a good coach, a couple bad years in a horrible situation and he's marked for life?

He's a good coach, a couple bad years in a horrible situation and he's marked for life?The fact that you're blaming Carmelo is amazing. We going to forget him:
a) shitting on half the team at any given time
b) destroying Iman Shumpert's will to live
c) ignoring JR's fuckery
d) throwing Tyson Chandler to the wolves,
e) ignoring any semblance of a flowing offense and being very slow to react to changes?
Give me Fitzdale or Blatt any day.
Mills said that the franchise's next coaching hire will need to "understand today's player."I know Blatt can because the man has interacted with players all over the world and has a good offensive mind. Fitz is big on accountability though his stance on analytics isn't known to me. Woodson? ugh.
"Today's players are very different from yesterday's players. So you have to be a person that understands who these guys are, where they come from, what their basketball journey is," Mills said. "[You have to] understand the complexity of today's NBA game from an analytic standpoint, from a physical development standpoint, from a player development standpoint. A good coach is willing to embrace all those things."
Why the hype around Stackhouse? Despite his successes, G-League coaches need to be assistant coaches first, before diving into the deep end of the pool.
By AlphaSnacks Go To PostWhy the hype around Stackhouse? Despite his successes, G-League coaches need to be assistant coaches first, before diving into the deep end of the pool.he's been an assistant coach before lol
By The Frankman Go To PostThe fact that you're blaming Carmelo is amazing. We going to forget him:I wasn't blaming your boy, "Melo fuckery" reffered to the general disfunction of that era. As for your other points:
a) shitting on half the team at any given time
b) destroying Iman Shumpert's will to live
c) ignoring JR's fuckery
d) throwing Tyson Chandler to the wolves,
e) ignoring any semblance of a flowing offense and being very slow to react to changes?

a: they deserved it
b: see a (also lol)
c: I don't see how he ingnored it but what was he supposed to do? JR was our starting 2 guard and responsible for a large chunk of the limited offense that we had.
d: I don't remember what you're referring to.
e: I don't know any coaches that would react well to the kinds of changes he had to deal with.
Again Woodson is not my first choice and if your arguement against him was simply no retreads I'd buy that. But poeple scoffing at Woodson while names like Mark fucking Jackson are being floated around makes no sense to me. The state of the Knicks at that time was not Woodson fault, just like it wasn't Dantonis fault. People just couldn't fathom why going all in on Carmelo wasn't working out so it just had to be the coach(es).
By AlphaSnacks Go To PostWhy the hype around Stackhouse? Despite his successes, G-League coaches need to be assistant coaches first, before diving into the deep end of the pool.The 905 run the same system as the Raptors, so you'd at least have a coach who knows how to put a structure in place that can get you through a regular season. He's also acted as an assistant.
But I'd be surprised if it's not Jackson. Dolan is addicted to big names.

Rudy T is almost 70 years old. He became an alcoholic again after having to deal with Kobe for 3 months. No way he'd go somewhere even more dysfunctional with the Knicks.
By reilo Go To PostRudy T is almost 70 years old. He became an alcoholic again after having to deal with Kobe for 3 months. No way he'd go somewhere even more dysfunctional with the Knicks.#ruinseveryjoke
I think it's gonna be Blatt (maybe Fizdale). Blatt abd Mills go way back and Mills is the one that's gonna make the decision. I have no reason to believe that Dolan, Isaiah Thomas or any other member of the shadow front office will be involved...
By blackace Go To PostI have a feeling it will be another dino of the past… Maybe he can coax Rudy T backI dunno. Listening to stack i'm 50/50 on the whole thing. He obviously is a no nonsense guy him self. But He seems to be doing a really good job with the 905. And he seems to adhere / do the offensive side better than i expected (from the few articles i read about him / it over the last year or two).
But you're absolutely right. He could come in and try and be all old school and get fired in 3 months with Unicorn riding off into free agency.
TBH I want him to be smart and take the Orlando job. The Knicks environment is just too toxic with too many distractions for anybody to succeed. And Charlotte has too much MJ heavy-handedness involved.
By livefromkyoto Go To PostTBH I want him to be smart and take the Orlando job. The Knicks environment is just too toxic with too many distractions for anybody to succeed. And Charlotte has too much MJ heavy-handedness involved.this is based on nothing
first it was mj has no business sense then he unburnt every bridge left by bob johnson and got the hornets name/history back
then it was mj only hires his guys and picks up guys who aren't anything close to that
then it was mj is cheap and he cashes the fuck out
then it was mj doesn't do anything in the area and won't even keep guys on the team unless they're hitting their outreach bottom line
then it was mj is over involved when cliff is begging for his input and cho is drafting mkg over beal and cody over mclemore
Yeah. I'm not sure MJ is heavy-handed. Never really read about that stuff.
But then, FO's are good at keeping that away from the media.

By blackace Go To PostIt's funny tho because the media talks like MJ actual made all their moves…. instead of their GM.Easier to grab attention that way.
You also assume that, while yeah, Cho was the GM when those guys were drafted, MJ wasn't absent from the process either. Though I can't say i've heard anything about CHA's front office in the media either way.
By giririsss Go To PostYeah. I'm not sure MJ is heavy-handed. Never really read about that stuff.There is no Charlotte media. Nothing is ever written or said about them anywhere.
But then, FO's are good at keeping that away from the media.
MJ is a hyper-competitive control freak who owns an NBA team. Yes, he is involved. It's well established that he doesn't have an off switch. I'm not really worried about that either way except that he's got zero eye for talent.

rick bonnell cried real tears when rod higgins got fired dont you dare take that away from him
and mj doesn't even hang around the guys like that anymore because he hates losers
By DY_nasty Go To Postrick bonnell cried real tears when rod higgins got fired dont you dare take that away from himI had to google these people.
That's...that's something.
By DY_nasty Go To PostYou know y'all the safety school right?
i dont think we can lose omg
By masud Go To PostYou know y'all the safety school right?Stack was born in NC though.
and he's a Tar Heel.
you don't turn down the family.
only Roy Williams has done it and lived to tell about it.

I repeat nobody is turning down that Dolan cash. It got pjax to come out of a decade long acid trip, it got JVG crawling back for more punishment, if the Knicks want Stack he'll be the coach.
