What is this "Tri-ang-le" you speak of?

The problem with Thibs is that Dolan hates him because he was Frank Isola's source for years and had an ugly exit. Dolan would have a hard time okaying it. Phil Jackson also hates Van Gundy and Thibs is from the JVG/Riley tree.

It's a GOOD THING that he knows the offense that our President loves. The President that will be deciding on who the next coach is. |

It's just good to know that one critical criteria is a check in the box for Thibs. We of course still have to see how things end this season and after that you could have a coach search and interviews. If Walton doesn't want the job then it's a good thing that Thibs could go into his interview and talk shop with Phil about the Triangle and system ball in general and i'm sure Phil would be impressed by that. |

Did you see Phil's reaction when he was asked about Thibs? He practically hissed. I want Thibs and think it's the right basketball move. But the politics of MSG make it tough. ¿ △ ?

He just named Rambis the Interim coach and wants to give him a shot. No way he wants to have it seem like he's actively soliciting for another Head Coach while his buddy is in the job. I don't believe he hates Thibs, just trying to manage rumors and expectations. Dolan is another matter entirely. I don't know if he'd veto Phil if he felt Thibs was the right man for the job. |

That was excellent.
Thibbs might very well be the right coach if you believe this video. Still there would be a built in conflict with hiring Thibbs. We want to bring respect and winning culture back. Thibbs loves the Knicks so there might be a mutual intrest to work together to bring about a winning tradition. it's worth an interview at the very least Subscribe to my Podcast https://youtube.com/c/DiehardknicksPodcast

I just hope Phil gives Thibs and other "non triangle" coaches a chance and at least bring him and others in to talk to them and then it's on Thibs and the others to sell Phil on them. |

Why would Thibs want the Knicks job so badly and would take the Knicks job if he knows the owner (J.Dolan) hates him so much?? |

What a revelation! Whoever put that montage together must be a supporter of Thib. Well done
Thank God Fisher is no longer our coach, now let's get Calderon out of here:)

So that is how the triangle looks when ran by a good coach with good players. I love all the movement that Thibs had his players doing to disguise that they were running the triangle. My number 1 pet peeve with the Knicks is that everyone goes straight to the triangle. Teams then know what to expect and they counter it easy. I was also amazed at all the drives to the hoop I seen in that video. It means that the system is not what is wrong with the Knicks and their lack of drives but it is the players.
