Mike Brown “likely” to be Knicks next head coach

There are going to be a lot of teams waiting on eggshells for the deadline to pass and the Knicks are likely one of them. That said, the Knicks were always overrated.

Based on what I saw in our home game, they are dead in the water without Brunson but looks like they could use another creator/scorero like Derozan or Monk for when the remainder of the team is cold

Yeah, that Knicks bench is grim. Mike Brown is really high on Kolek for some reason but they need like three more NBA level players there to really make any sort of viable postseason run

The problem with any Kings deal to NY is which players were still on board with Mike at the end and who wasn’t.

And they've done it the right way. They caught crap the last few years but they put in a development plan and this is how it can pay off. It sucks seeing teams lap the Kings in both direction at all times, lol. Are they set? Maybe not, but they are in a good place if they can capitalize in adding those last couple pieces.
 
I'm not committing to watching the full game because I'm going to take a walk around halftime but Dallas is mopping the floor with them and KAT just got a flagrant for extending his leg on a corner three and kicking his defender in the nuts. This result is good for us but what the hell NYK?

The answer is simple; Dude’s mid as hell. Not an awful coach. But a bridge to the one who’s hopefully better.

He was the perfect answer for us in 22-23. I think his act does not work with players past a certain level (see LeBron, Kobe - yes both softened on him after they no longer had to play for him, but they hated playing for him).

By year 3, Fox convinced himself he's a superstar, Domas maybe wanted to be with his family on multi-day breaks between games at home, and DeMar says F this S.

Knicks were a ECF team, they are already there.

Would love to be wrong and see Brown turn it around. I like him. But he was certainly an interesting choice for a team that got sick of Thibs because they are very much in the same mold.

it took a while for Detroit to get to this point but the front office had the patience to wait it out, lottery season after lottery season. I don't believe Vivek has it in him to be that patient, time will only tell us

Detroit hired a coach at a record contract and fired him in like a year. I don't think they were patient, they just made bad moves that blew up in their face. Sort of like what happened for us last off-season and again with the Zach deal.

patience in terms of keeping their youth and not trading them before letting them blossom or see who's worth keeping around

Coaches can come and go, whatever shows up on the salary cap is all that matters. Coaches just have to teach principles and get the F out of the way at that stage. Just roll all your youth out and let it do it's thing. The additions they did make weren't put in the way of too much. Harris was always going to be a short term piece and has kind of given the keys over to the other guys and just supplemented the others kind of like a Harrison Barnes. The Kings in the same situation would build the entirety of their offensive scheme around him.
