I also hope that the d league franchise is run the right way and guys are developed there. I was reading last night that teams can sign 3 guys from their training camp to their dleague team in addition to having two guys on assignment there. Hopefully the Knicks take advantage of this and also work on developing coaches to eventually work on the knicks bench. Really excited about Phil. I think he is a global thinker and has the power/ autonomy to make the right moves to get the Knicks on track.

If Melo isn't part of the equation, shouldn't our main concern be about maximizing the value of our 2015 pick? If there is any coach that is bad enough to screw up a season while seemingly trying, it is Woodson, which makes me think that we should keep him around until we get that pick. It'd be perfect too because we could make him the scapegoat.

I don't hate Woodson but it is a new era and time for a fresh start. Woodson's gm was fired prior to the start of training camp. Phil needs to bring in his guys and the Knicks need to become whatever his vision of them is.

Alright, fair. Part of me does feel a little bad for the guy. You could see that the situation is definitely weighing on him. The humane thing to do would have been to fire him earlier in the season.

+1. Damn that foo sucks at coaching. Get rid a him asap.

How does one quantify the job he did based on the roster's he has had? Personally I think did a great job last year. Yes Kidd was a big help but successful seasons need good players and leadership. 54 wins was excellent for that old ass roster!

This year injuries killed us, not bad coaching. We throw coaches under the bus as fans (all fans do this, not just us)and bring in a new one only to find its not always the coach.

We have new management and while I have no problem with Woodson my take is its time for him to chill, take Dolans money for a year and figure out his next move.

Good/great players usually make the coach look good. Our roster is clumsy. Woodson looks clumsy.

I hope we make the playoffs. Woodson will have made it every year here. Given our talent, its not terrible. I guess its ones personal expectations of this team can one measure Woodson. Injuries and a sorry back court I lay blame on more than his coaching acumen.
