Oh that's right...the Knicks still don't have a coach...huh, weird that.
If you'd rather see your team fail so you can be right
...you are a fan of your opinion not the team.

Damn right it should.

We're not competitive for the top FAs, obviously, but to sell a bench guy coming on they need to know what the coach's philosophy and minutes distribution will look like. Especially if we're looking for discounts.

Pair Brown with Nori or Borrego and we could be in a much worst situation than that. Lowkey considering the market of available coaches with Playoff experience Brown honestly might be the best out there to get.

The Knicks should just go into the season with no coach. Many people think coaching doesn't matter, so let's do the experiment.
SELL THE TEAM, JIM!!! :curse:

Brown has the best resume of all the candidates out there so I'm not surprised.

This is embarrassing.

Mike Brown is a journeyman coach who hasn’t been relevant in 15 years.

This is a disgrace.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

Melo .. the same was definitely implied although the word Journey man wasn't specifically used. He was called a failed coach and someone that nobody wanted and that's why he was out of the NBA. I know because I argued in favor of Thibs before I realized he was no longer the right coach. I've had discussions with people in this thread.. go back to when we hired him. It wasn't received that well.

Brown or Jenkins I think people will have an issue. it's just what we do lol
