I got to disagree with you. Fizdale was brought here to deal with superstar egos ala what we are seeing in Brooklyn. The FO failed to get him Durant and his plus 1, and Fizdale failed to get KP to buy in. Fiz was not bought here for X and O’s or to develop youth. Which is why he went on such a horrible run.
If the Knicks got Durant, Kyrie and Zion he would have looked like a ok coach because he would have kept them happy.
yeah fizdale was suppose to be someone we could bring into a meeting and sell as superstar a dream because one of fiz's big selling points is tha the had the backing from lebron and his connections so they were using him as a piece that stars would want to play for because everyone likes him.
I don't think he was known as a developmental coach.
He was known as a developmental coach.
He claimed that he invented drills to improve finishing at the rim as well as making Josh Richardson a very good player and reviving Tyreke.
Don't forget that Lebron said that Fiz always made sure that he had his water bottles filled and that his luggage always was waiting for him at his hotel room when on the road.
