Just like Carmelo Anthony, the current King of NY will stay the King of NY and not demand a trade unless he is ran out of town. Players know coaching changes are a part of the game.

He probably won’t ask out but he definitely wouldn’t be happy

Brunson is a professional and a winner in every sense.

When Leon traded his friends, he didn't pout ..he locked in and focused on winning. He'll do the same if Thibs is "promoted".

Brunson will remain a Knick if he has any say in it. Thibs being here or not will have zero influence on that.

Oh I have no doubts in big balls Brunson. I just think that he is going to have a difficult time with being effective and efficient. He is going to give 110% He is going to be a pit bull. The issue is that Detroit and Houston probably have the best ability to impact his effectiveness.
Having said that -- we have Towns for a reason.


wow

I don't think he'll leave but I do think think that Tom shouldn't be disrespected or humiliated either, because that absolutely would be a problem.

Treat him like Brad Stevens was. His voice and ear can still be valuable assets to the franchise but I just don't think his approach coaching wise in terms of his offensive and defensive philosophies will take this roster to the next level.

Make him the VP of Pro Player Scouting Ages 35 And Over


I might have a shot at making an NBA roster :nod:

There’s no way he should play unless Mitch or towns get injured. But would be a nice insurance policy for the rest of the playoffs

I looked up some stats. This season was the most games OG played since his rookie year. Tied at 74!
And he's averaging a career high in points per game!

Melo want's his Celtics to have an easier path, it explains why he's been salting the Knicks earth all season. We're through the looking glass now.
