LOL, I agree, Mike Browns' offensive pays are trash, and he used to get ran over by his team. We dont need that kind of coach anywhere near our team. NY has tough written all over it, we need somebody to push that in our teams mind.
Firing Antoni and acquiring Jeff Van Gundy should be the Knicks top priority this off-season if we ever want a championship. The only way this will likely happen though is if we don't extend Donnie Walsh.
I have a feeling the reason Walsh hasn't received an extension yet from Dolan is because Walsh wants to keep Antoni while Dolan wants a new coach. If Walsh doesn't get the extension I will jump for joy because
IMO that means Antoni is going to be fired. Don't get me wrong, that joy could turn to fear if Dolan brings Isiah back which I doubt will happen unless Dolan wants the media and the fans on his @ss for a few years.
Honestly we don't need Antoni anymore. We already have the scorers we need to be successful on offense in any system. We need a coach with a true defensive philosophy/mindset/players to compliment our offensive players. For all you guys still sticking up for Antoni, come talk to me at the end of the season when we get destroyed in the first round and then tell me we don't need a defensive minded coach. Defense wins championships.
Mike D'antoni is just going to waste all of the talent of this team.He's stupid,he's stubborn,and he's doesn't teach ANY defense.I really wish we got Scott Skiles instead of Mike D'antoni.
The MDA hate around her is too much.
Did any MDA haters actually watch or pay attention to PHX under MDA? He never won a ring, but the Suns were a top 5 power house each & every year; inside an extremely tough Westen Conf. What was his winning % with the Suns? Exactly. Look it up; you'll be shocked. He also led PHX to the Westen Conf Finals & played extremely tough against the Spurs going I believe 7 gms. That was when Duncan & the Spurs were great too.
Jesus people... This is ONLY his 1st year that he's had some talent to work with & NY is in position to fight for the 5 seed. RUN MDA outta town, before giving him a fair chance? Pathetic.
He's doing everything he can. He's even played & started a rookie in Fields since pretty much day one after the Toronto game. He's been running with a 10 man rotation since the trade. Guys like Shawne Williams, TD, Carter, Walker & JJ all get playing time. Even Mason got a chance to shine last night. WE held MIA & NOH under 90. We held ATL under 80. Defense is IMPROVING.
I agree that the D'Antoni hate has gone too far, but you're not exactly helping him by pointing out that he's never won a ring with the Suns. I mean, his lack of a defensive mind could be the main reason.
As a Knicks fan, I want to see them win a championship, not be one and done.
@moneyg true mikes assistant clled the plays but at the end of the day, when a play needs o be drawn up, was it not mike? He would be a nice assistant, but the thread said head coach.
Van gundy would be a pretty good fit, I defiately agree there, just not afan of mike brown. I say keep Dantoni over alot of coaches out there. I thnk he knows his job is on the line, that D will get better as we get more experience together
