If this isn't a joke, I am freeking out happy right now!!!!!

Dagger @ 2/8/2016 11:03 AM

Wow, I didn't think Phil would do this in the middle of the season. I suspect that Rambis will become the interim HC. It's not like fisher was really improving so I have no problem with this.

GustavBahler @ 2/8/2016 11:04 AM

I guess the process lost.......

gunsnewing @ 2/8/2016 11:05 AM

Just heard on Wfan. Certainly not a surprise. I like what I've seen out of Rambis the games he took over after Fish was ejected. Better sense of rotations and matchups. I can see him sticking if all goes well if not I can see Walton or Shaw next year. Just glad Phil is not risking his health going back to the bench

newyorker4ever @ 2/8/2016 11:05 AM

Well i guess i'm owed a thank you from you haters cause Phil was obviously waiting for me to give up on him before he fired him.

GoNyGoNyGo @ 2/8/2016 11:05 AM

wow!! I think it must have been real bad behind the scenes. This is not a PJax type move.

callmened @ 2/8/2016 11:06 AM

yikes!!

ChuckBuck @ 2/8/2016 11:07 AM

YES!!!!!!!

anrst @ 2/8/2016 11:07 AM

will rambis be better?

joec32033 @ 2/8/2016 11:07 AM

Strike up the band for thibs!

gunsnewing @ 2/8/2016 11:08 AM

Fisher has 4yrs and $20mil or whatever the buyout is. I'm sure it's a pretty penny and he is certainly isn't hurting

Thank goodness, that loss to denver was the icing..a team 11 games under 500, then he shifted the blame to the team, as oppose to his team

OK NIX

Yeah i think it's clearly gonna be Rambis that takes over but would that be something if Phil decided to take over for the rest of this year and maybe the rest of his contract?? Obviously this isn't gonna happen but i can dream.

franco12 @ 2/8/2016 11:08 AM

I feel bad for Derek. You kinda have to lay some blame on Phil.

Wonder if this was driven by Dolan.

EnySpree @ 2/8/2016 11:09 AM

This is why Phil has been quiet.... motherfucker.

I'm wit it. Fisher was not good with substitutions and in game decisions. I'm wit it....

Phil is woke.
