Knicks Pick Up 14-15 Option On Woodson's Contract

[RealGM Wiretap]

The New York Knicks have picked up the option on Mike Woodson’s contract for the 2014-15 season. 

Woodson, entering his second full season at the helm of the Knicks after being named interim head coach on Mar. 14, 2012, led the franchise to a 54-28 (.659) mark last season and the franchise’s first Atlantic Division crown since 1993-94. He finished third in media balloting for the 2012-13 NBA Coach of the Year award and was named the NBA’s Eastern Conference Coach of the Month for April. His .679 (72-34) winning percentage is second-best in franchise history.

“I have long respected Mike and think he has done a remarkable job since becoming the head coach of the Knicks,” Steve Mills said. “After spending time with him recently, it is clear that picking up his option is an easy decision.”

Im not Happy with this move at all.

Should of waited at least this all-star break to pick up his option.

Mr. Mills is not getting off on the right foot. IMO
