Knicks · Thibs is getting circled (page 2)

Players notice these things just like fans do. Nobody wants to be buried on the bench for the better part of a season, after a rough start. Including the playoffs. I dont believe its strategically sound, or a good way to recruit veteran FAs.
As I said much earlier in the season. I hope the FO looks back on how things went (in detail) if they see some good candidates out there, interview them. If they still believe Thibs is the best choice, Im good with that as a fan.
We have Budenholzer and Nurse without a job right now. If there was ever a time to test the waters, see how they might do things differently. This would be the summer. Normally dont have such great candidates available.
I think Gustav's modus operandi is the grass is always greener on the other side. Trade everyone, fire everyone. More instant gratification rather than evolve to success.
Hey it worked wonders in LA when they went out and got Kawhi and George for a gajillion dollars, and fired Doc (who may be on his way to ECF) to get Lue
My MO is wanting the FO to never stop trying to improve the team. Waiting 50 plus years for another title. No instant gratification here.
I suggest the FO interviews 2 championship winning coaches, and you have a problem with that. Agree to disagree.

I have laid off for a while but when you write ridiculous stuff like this it's hard not to step back in the ring.
What kind of jobs have you had where candidates are interviewed and then management sticks with the current job holder? Really curious to hear your answer.
Also, do you really think management is out of step with what Thibs has accomplished this year?
Thirdly, what were your expectations going into the season? This is at least a conference finals squad? Giannis is out and KD and Booker are about to be trounced and after a huge win your upset the Knicks haven't swept Miami yet?
Try to answer without having a fit.

Did I stutter? Not stars, role players.
Because you couldnt read my post without asking that question.
Because what you said literally makes zero sense and everyone is flabbergasted you'd actually type those things out, that'd be my guess.
If you would only talk like this to actual trolls...
And yet...the heat are shooting a whopping 31% from three while the Knicks are shooting.....30% from three. So what gives...
I guess coaching doesn't impact rebounding. Knicks are just getting lucky there I suppose, since...you know... the Knicks have grabbed 6 more rebounds per game than the Heat. IS that coaching? Or just want to. Doesn't coaching impact that too? Or no...probably not...
What about the bench scoring and availability? Thibs failed us there too I guess. Oh wait, never mind, we don't currently have a bench. Free OBI!! Oh wait, he's a mess every other game, lately.
The Thibs bitching from this so called knowledgeable NY fan base, is not our best moment as fans. Which is a kind way of saying some of you are lost.

Sorry, you cant even get your posters right without talking out of your ass. Now you're at it again.
Thibs wont care if he still has a job. Nobody will care if he doesnt.

what evidence do you have that the FO has stopped trying to improve? there's lots of evidence that the fire or dump everyone doesn't work except for the dopamine hit
Budenholzer is a great coach. would have loved to hire him over FIzzdale. But Thibs is two time CoY and kind of made for NY. The idea of going out and kicking the tires on a new coach when Thibs has done what he's done with the roster he has is ridiculous. Take a look at the top two or three players for each remaining team and compare to Randle and Brunson. He has done a lot more with less. Talking to those coaches would absolutely poison the Thibs relationship we have and the culture he and the FO have in fact been instituting/ So you can say agree to disagree but the position isn't the kind of reasonable disagreement. It's just some one trying to provoke others with suggestions that make zero sense
And as much as i love budenholzer it is very strange they dumped him. There might be a sense that he's a better regular season coach than a playoff coach. When an opponent has a chance to lock onto you for a series and make game to game adjustments, it's a different beast

Burn! You got me on a mistake I already admitted. You should give it a try sometime.

Tricky undertaking that could backfire big time. It is almost impossible to keep secrets in the NBA. And to do so publicly would be undermining your active head coach in a major way. Not a good way to manage people and organizations.
I also doubt that any other coach could have gotten more out of our current group. Based on pure talent, the Knicks are exceeding expectations.
My guess is they jump ship after the first three game losing streak. And start the fire/trade/bench tirades. Spots on a leopard and all that.
Let’s enjoy a second round playoff game tonight! Who woulda thunk?

They can work a wide open 3 on almost every single possession if they want to. Nothing comes easy for us and we have to make a lot of difficult shots.Heat been in the conference finals 2x in the last 3 years. Finals 2 years ago, game 7 vs. Boston last year. They totally took apart the Bucks. Honestly have some respect. Your take away is Thibs is lost?It's tough to understand why there are no adjustments whatsoever. We pretty much only won the game last night because they missed a lot of those open 3's.
They have guys like Duncan Robinson who literally the only thing he can do is shoot open 3's...and we let him do it over and over again. It's so hard to comprehend.
You can also see some of the more creative cuts and handoffs and screens they use to get themselves better looks or driving lanes. We don't see a lot of that. I believe we have more talent than they do but they're the better team with the better coach.
It's a big problem, especially when we don't have a top 5 player and we have a #2 that feels like he's given up at times in Julius. We're closer than we have been in so long but I don't know if we can take that next step with Thibs here. I do believe that if you flipped coaches, we'd be the ones winning this series.
Watch the games. Heat have 2 stars. They have a washed up 3rd guy who's done nothing but hit big shots and make plays. They have excellent role players. Your like the 4th poster who's state we should be beating the Heat, we cant do anything, Thibs sucks, Randle sucks, bla bla bla
Wake up fans. Knicks are down 3-2 to a proven playoff commodity in round 2 in a season most thought we MIGHT make the play in and be .500
I think Thibs can develop players but schematically he's getting worked, dude. I don't know how you can watch this series and not see that.
I would tell you to watch the games. They can literally get a wide open 3 at will on way too many possessions. Do you think we get as many easy buckets and clean looks as they do? We're forced to take more difficult shots and everything comes harder for us. It's so easy to see. And they're not more talented than us, but they're smarter and they know what to do with the ball.
For me it's the total lack of adjustments. They're getting the same open shots they did earlier in the series. We won last night because they missed more of those wide open 3's than they normally do. We can't take the next 2 games like that, more of those are going to fall in if we're not contesting them but I don't see any evidence that we're going to be able to do that.
Spo is a hall of fame level coach but you're reaching to make an Anti-Thibs argument that really isn't there. For instance I can reverse your point and say that Knicks have also had many open 3s and missed open 3's in games 1 and 4 probably cost them those games. Not sure how people can look at this series and say, my god we just won against a team that has a HoF coach, has a number of seasoned vets with championship or deep playoff experience, was in the finals 2 years ago and the Conference finals last year and took down the Bucks in 5 this year....and say..."my god we suck!"
+10000
I am reminded of when, long long ago, everyone was crying for a defensive minded coach. Now we looking for Paul Westhead?
Although I do want the Knicks to add an assistant to get more ball movement, some Knick fans do not understand how important a no nonsense defensive coach like Thibs is. He is who we wanted. At least I did. I also understand that coaches are going to run an offensive schemes to take advantage of their players strengths. The Heat were put together to shoot threes. They have several that can shoot it at high click but may not be able to create on their own. Drive and kick with ball rotation offense is best suited to get them shots. We would need a few more shooters before we can focus on that. Right now we have three players that have an advantage one on one. Despite that, its not like Thibs is yelling at them to hold the ball.
Would also add that if Thibs started a hack a Mitch type strategy with a decent amount of in the fourth and it back fired, some on here would have their pitchforks up.
Often coaches don’t interview unless there is an opening?
In this case I suppose unless Thibs is fired, what is there to talk about?
Thibs coached like the 4th or 5th best offensive team. Yeah, remember we wanted him to hire a “offensive coordinater”. Do we not have shooting coaches or passing coaches on the vast roster of coaches?
This roster is iso centric and effective at it. Its what we do and have succeeded in doing. If you coach them another way maybe we don’t win 47 games?
WE assume all changes are for the better. Sometimes teams go backwards when they don’t execute.

It’s a damn shame when knick fans can’t go to a knick forum and speak freely about a player or coach without the ignorant kickback. Can’t say anything negative without the world falling. Grow up. We all knick fans including Gus. If he thinks thibs has some room to grow, why are you guys all over him.
Fish has a way of attacking other fans and I don’t get it. Please respect each others opinions with the personal attacks. Martin your wrong. I understand exactly what Gus is saying and feeling. It’s getting old and this shet needs to stop.

Aren't you guilty of the same thing you are admonishing by calling the responses to a point "ignorant kickback"? I'm curious how you feel fan forums operate as you seem to indicate that expressed opinions, posts and views should not be challenged and that we all need to hold hands singing Kumbaya to our Knicks brotherhood of fandom. Methinks you want to police the board and make the rules to your own liking instead of understanding that people are different, with different views, different styles etc.
To the point.....Gus expressly said that the Knicks should shop around for a new head coach while Thibs is still the coach. In what world does this make any sense and not illicit some type of response? Head Coaching is a fraternity, they talk to one another....... and unless the FO intention is to get rid of Thibs, why would they do this? Its not like they're shopping for a new car on Carvana.

Thanks blkexec. Most of these posters were just as nutty about Phil Jackson and Kurt Rambis. Like 12 year old fanboys. Then they move on to the next faux outrage. Its amazing how much they can summon from even the slightest disagreement.
Want to see a troll get checked on this board, you're in for a very long wait. Some folks love Drama.

Gustav likes to agitate and provoke just to prove to himself that someone actually read his post. When he gets called out, he gets pissy
Fish you might have also mentioned that when Fournier got benched our season turned around. Winning will attract FAs. If riding pine because you're not holding up on both ends of the floor scares you off as a FA, then benching a player has that benefit too: it scares away FAs we don't want -- ones more concerned about their minutes than winning
BLkexec you're wrong on this one

It’s a damn shame when knick fans can’t go to a knick forum and speak freely about a player or coach without the ignorant kickback. Can’t say anything negative without the world falling. Grow up. We all knick fans including Gus. If he thinks thibs has some room to grow, why are you guys all over him.
Fish has a way of attacking other fans and I don’t get it. Please respect each others opinions with the personal attacks. Martin your wrong. I understand exactly what Gus is saying and feeling. It’s getting old and this shet needs to stop.
Thanks blkexec. Most of these posters were just as nutty about Phil Jackson and Kurt Rambis. Like 12 year old fanboys. Then they move on to the next faux outrage. Its amazing how much they can summon from even the slightest disagreement.
Want to see a troll get checked on this board, you're in for a very long wait. Some folks love Drama.
Martin just asked Knickoftime to leave because he had too many silly posts where the only point was to agitate. (He had informative posts too). there have been others too, but he was just like a week or two ago.
If you (and by you i mean you, and not "one") say something really provoctive, and people call you out on it, then don't be surprised: you provoked a response as you intended. ANd don't act hurt. People do not have to agree with you and you some points for creativity or a participation award, if they think the idea is nuts.
My advice is take your lumps and move on. Benching fournier has proven smarts, and shopping for a new coach is unwise when our current one got us this far with the roster he has

When your're on the outs with Thibs, you're really out.
Players notice these things just like fans do. Nobody wants to be buried on the bench for the better part of a season, after a rough start. Including the playoffs. I dont believe its strategically sound, or a good way to recruit veteran FAs.
As I said much earlier in the season. I hope the FO looks back on how things went (in detail) if they see some good candidates out there, interview them. If they still believe Thibs is the best choice, Im good with that as a fan.
We have Budenholzer and Nurse without a job right now. If there was ever a time to test the waters, see how they might do things differently. This would be the summer. Normally dont have such great candidates available.
Did I stutter? Not stars, role players.

Its a damn shame when "fans" can spout stupid shit and when someone responds with "really???" people call it an attack. Maybe that's what they mean when they call people snowflakes. Whoever they are.
All I can say is GO KNICKS and hopefully Thib's earlier benching of Fournier doesnt cost us tonight. Hopefully nobody is offended by that.
Gustav likes to agitate and provoke just to prove to himself that someone actually read his post. When he gets called out, he gets pissy
Fish you might have also mentioned that when Fournier got benched our season turned around. Winning will attract FAs. If riding pine because you're not holding up on both ends of the floor scares you off as a FA, then benching a player has that benefit too: it scares away FAs we don't want -- ones more concerned about their minutes than winning
BLkexec you're wrong on this one
Last post I said that we would have to "agree to disagree", but here you are keeping this going. Who is being pissy here? Just you.
If my diaagreeing with you gets you all agitated, find another poster to interact with. Problem solved.
