to my mind the only mistake woodson made was not tanking for 8th.

that woulda been nice, too.

yeah, agreed. no way he comes here.

i think the glen grunwald hiring/promotion/whatever pretty much guarantees woodson is back.

I already knew he was awful but that 18-6 thing is going to live on and people will say he's amazing for it. Hawks fans hated him because he was an awful playoff coach. He still is. I really hope Woodson doesn't return.

It all depends who we are gonna get. If we don't get a star coach, he stays. Though he is probably staying anyway because of the dynamics

This one is not on the coach.

How many coach's most of you think we gotta get?

WE can't fire them all can we?

Get Jax in here but its a long shot.

Woodie earned the gig if Jax passes.

Agreed - Jax! There really is no one else if he says no? Sloan? Callipari? Don't think so.

Great coach indeed.

But now that the playoffs start, suddenly we lose two in a row, suddenly being shorthanded really dictates a result and now we are about to be swept. Coincidence that Woodson was fired from Atlanta because of this?

Use all the excuses you want for the series, truth is he sealed the deal with this last game. Game 3 was supposed to go to NY. Miami was off and any adjustment on offense would've won it. Woody found another way to lose a playoff game, his postseason forte.

If you root for Woody to stay and get your wish, enjoy the season and just tune the Knicks off when the playoff start.

We're going to win a championship this year
We're not even going to make the playoffs
Melo can't play with STAT
BD will be our saviour
D'Antoni should be fired
(Lin Sanity) D'Antoni is great! Lin shows his system works!
We're going to make the playoffs
Melo won't be able to play with Lin
BD sucks
We're not going to make the playoffs
D'Antoni should be fired
Melo sucks, he needs to be traded
Amar'e has lost all his athleticism
(Woodson takes over) Oh wait a minute, Amar'e looks great! Melo can play with him if he was only hiting his shots- he sucks this season, he must have a drug problem
Amar'e CAN play defense!
Lin, melo and Amar'e are playing well together and winning!
(Amar'e and Lin go out injured) Amar'e will never play again this season
Melo is an all star! He's leading us into the playoffs!
Amar'e won't be able to play with Melo
Melo needs to be the focal point on offense!
Woodson is a great coach- extend him now!
Amar'e returns! He's looking great!
Amar'e CAN'T play defense ever
Amar'e needs to defer to Melo, and come off the bench- the offense must run through Melo
(playoffs start)
Amar'e is terrible, he needs to be traded, he's lost his athleticsm
Melo sucks- we need to trade him
Melo shoots too much
Woodson should be fired, he is terrible
everyone sucks- trade everyone and fire the coach

We will never win a championship because we never have the patience to stick with anything- look at all the teams in the playoffs- most of them have had the same coach and system and players for years- we haven't had that since JVG left. If we hired Phil Jackson, all that would happen is people would go into next season saying 'we're going to win a championship', we'd underperform due to it being a new system and players learning how to play in it, and people woul start panicking (they'd probably give him a whole month!), demanding everyone be traded etc, and then the whole cycle would begin again.

Fans are not the problem, not even close. Maybe you mean ownership's bad interpretation of what the fans want. Because in the end, all we want is a win.
