Thibs appreciation post

So, I have been an ardent Thibs supporter and defender since his start with the Knicks, and I have loved him and his hard nosed coaching style since the Bulls. IM A FAN.

But his issues are glaring at this point and it's most likely better for the team to get a new HC during the offseason. Keep Thibs on the payroll under Rose, just keep him off the bench.

I am so thankful for everything he has done for the Knicks and he deserves to be her for a chip, just not in a coaching position.

We have a team that on paper should trounce the Hornets and the Spurs WITHOUT Brunson. It should not even be close. I know teams can get hot, but every night there is some random player going off. This has been a theme for years, and when the the margin for error in the NBA is already so small, Thibs schemes become blatantly obvious. They just don't work. Whatever he sees in practice doesn’t translate during games, and his line-ups are just so questionable.

Im not sure why he can't make proper adjustments during games or why our offense is dogshit. The amount of missed layups, missed defensive rebounds and missed open threes is very worrisome and has nothing to do with Brunson being out. It's all effort and at this point it looks like our players have "given up". The vibes are at an all time low, the hustle and spark is gone and no one is taking accountability.

This season is a wash, get some additional playoff experience, let Rose cook during the offseason and fingers crossed we get a new coach.

Having said that, thank you Tom for bringing the Knicks back! Your job here is done.
