Yea I’m not gunna pretend to know what really happened behind the scenes. There’s so much out there with his falling out with Leon over the season, Rick turning on him, Wes n Brock not liking him, Dolan being a minutes policeman, reports about the FO saying he’d have to have won a title to have kept his job, the players being upset with him, then the report about Leon having 100% control and threatening to walk if forced to do something he didn’t want including firing Thibs, etc. I think ignoring all that and blaming it all on Dolan is too conspiratorial and agenda driven.
Let’s be honest, Boston wasn’t at full strength. KP wasn’t really in it and Jaylen was also playing hurt. We barely beat Detroit, and the Indy series was a catastrophe of biblical proportions. That’s on Thibs.
The guy basically admitted he screwed up all season by changing things in the playoffs, but it was too little too late. Going switch heavy, deeper into the bench, changing lineups, etc. Everything we complained about all year he finally gave us, but then reverted back to dumb decisions at times which ultimately cost us everything. FO probably didn’t think he could stick to not being stubborn over another whole season.
I like to think in terms of root causes for things… KAT’s defense 1 on 1 is solid. Thibs put him in drop tho. It’s no wonder why people were frustrated with his defense… he was set up to fail.
Only thing I blame Mikal for is his shot change. It got better as the season went on tho. Would I like him to attack the basket more? Sure, but at that point you’re asking him to be a superstar. He’s just not. That’s why he’s 3rd/4th option. Everything else is fine. The defensive numbers/stats/rankings that have come out have been very impressive. Considering Thibs drove him into the dirt (ran him thru the most screens, played the most minutes, never missed a game) and played him out of position, what more can we ask for? The guy still saved our ass in two playoff games vs Boston… which was the very reason we traded for him.
It's not conspiracy/agenda driven tho. Fred Katz is one of the best writers out there and he doesn't say stuff for clicks. He's very plugged in with the Knicks as well.
Boston basically won the chip last year without KP so he doesn't really count. Sure Brown was hurt, but he was still putting up 20+ PPG. Boston had 2 big leads in the first 2 games so they absolutely still could've beaten us. I don't think you're giving the team/Thibs enough credit for beating Boston.
Indiana was simply the better team as much as we hate to admit it. They probably win the chip if Hali didn't tear his achilles.
KAT's defense is awful in drop and at switching. There's not much you can really do to fix it. The most you can do is move him at the 4 which is what Minny did and what we're going to do going forward.
Mikal was pretty terrible against Indiana. Im not asking him to be a superstar. Im asking him to not pass up an open drive for a contested middy fadeaway. That's basketball 101 lol
At the end of the day we'll see how things go this year. Our window is pretty wide open this season to go to the finals with Boston and indiana's injuries. If Mike Brown can't get to the finals then hiring him was a massive mistake.
Yea we’ve talked about the Katz thing before… he’s 1 guy. Can’t take what he’s saying as gospel tho, because who are his sources? How high up do they rank? How many does he have? Do they actually know 100% or are they getting things 2nd or 3rd hand?
And what about all the other reports I mentioned? Does Katz negate all that? If so, why? Who’s to say his sources are better than those? You see how the waters get muddied? We really don’t know anything for a fact especially when there’s so many conflicting reports.
If Dolan was on trial, it’d be impossible to get a conviction with 1 star witness who gets his info on the facts 3rd or 4th hand.
Regarding Boston, I’ve given them credit, and sure KP was out a lot last year but he helped them a lot more than he did this year because he wasn’t battling an unknown virus when he actually played. Can’t forget Jrue wasn’t 100% either… plus him n Horford another year older along with the team as a whole being a lot less hungry for a title after winning one. They’re obviously still a good team, but we absolutely got lucky in getting the edge we needed to win. I don’t think there’s any denying that.
Indy might’ve been the better unit given their chemistry, but they’re not more talented and shouldn’t have beaten us. We blew that series from the start and the majority of it falls on Thibs shoulders.
We really gotta move on tho lol

It wasn't just him though. Fred Katz said that it was him and James Edwards that heard the same thing about Dolan stepping in. And then you have Shams reporting that Thibs is safe after the Knicks got eliminated.. before Dolan stepped in. It's multiple people reporting the same thing fam. So I'm not sure who else you need to hear it from lol
As someone who wasn't high on this team at all, I don't think we got lucky beating Boston. I think we beat them pretty fairly. I mean they won 61 games with Horford and Jrue being old. And they even took down Orlando in 5 games who is one of the best defensive teams in the league.
Idk about the Indiana thing. They took OKC to 7 with a badly injured Haliburton. I think we underestimated them honestly. So it is what it is. I was hoping we could steal that Weinar guy from Indiana to help out with our offense too.
We never gonna move on brodie this sht is for life!!!!heres to hoping we get a chip next year

Bro, listen to your boy Shams say it loud n clear:
The FO had internal meetings immediately after the playoffs ended. They had player meetings as well, and Leon+Dolan came to the conclusion that Thibs had to go. Shams words
That’s why the statement Leon released, he specifically says “we’ve decided to move in a different direction” and “we made the decision we felt is best for our organization”… “we” not Dolan. Every time it was Dolan’s decision to fire someone, we knew about it. He doesn’t have to hide, he’s the owner.
You should also check out this really good article… https://www.thestrick.land/strick/the-knicks-broke-up-with-tom-thibodeau-before-he-broke-their-heart it lays out everything the Thibs critics have been saying all year…. The FO wasn’t happy at all with him. You gotta accept that he:
1: Didn’t optimize KAT on offense (was a problem in Minny too)
2: Put KAT in compromising position defensively
3: Didn’t use Mikal enough as p&r handler
4: Played Mikal out of position defensively
5: Didn’t maximize the Jalen-KAT duo and 2-man game
6: Team shot way too few 3’s
7: Didn’t switch enough defensively on and off ball/no zone
8: Didn’t play the bench enough/Rotations too short
9: Didn’t try other lineups thru the season despite starters drop off
10: Couldn’t defend the 3
How could you be so loyal to someone who made such shockingly poor decisions that cost us so dearly? I know you wanna deflect blame to KAT n Mikal, but…no lol, that’s not cutting it.
Most fans knew it was time for him to go, players too… Wes, Brock, Dolan, and yes… Leon![]()
Thibs is done, it’s Mike Brown’s turn. Can’t wait to win 60+ plus the chip on his watch

He's mentioning Dolan a ton in there. Leon had to go all along with Dolan's decision. And in that very same clip, Shams said the league is very shocked we fired Thibs. I wonder why?
Look at what Shams said before that. Brunson and Leon were fully backing Thibs. Then 24 hours later Dolan steps in and he gets fired. Read the leaves Spree.![]()
You gotta accept that Dolan meddled in. If Fred Katz, James Edward are also saying the same thing then it has to be true.
My guy if we fired Thibs with an actual plan to replace him with a top tier coach then I wouldn't mind it. But we forced Leon in a bad spot and now we ended up with a much worse coach who cant even get assistants to join him. It looks extremely bad.

You keep saying its some conspiracy but it's notit's just a simple fact that Dolan stepped in and got Thibs fired which resulted in putting the front office in a really bad spot. If you think guys like Shams, Fred Katz, James Edwards are conspiracy theorists then be my guest lol
You're simply happy about Thibs getting fired which is fine, but you need to find a high level replacement for him because the bar is super high. It's literally finals or bust. Mike Brown has never even gotten to the conference finals without Lebron which was over 15 years ago. And no top assistant even wants to join him which is another red flag.
You're under the impression that any replacement is an upgrade which doesn't make sense at all to me. Because if that was the case, we would've won the chip long before Thibs came here.

I showed you video evidence of Shams saying it was Leon![]()
Your counter of Shams saying what he did before they made the decision isn’t evidence of anything. The FO isn’t going to make their intentions public when they haven’t gone thru their process yet. That’s why Shams said what he said in the video I posted which was after yours. You’re refusing to believe it. That’s common sense… so now all you got is Katz n Edwards with the same sources 3rd or 4th hand that you don’t even know. And you’re ignoring every single other report I mentioned… THAT is absolutely you being a conspiracy theorist lol.
We would’ve won a chip a long time before Thibs came here if he wasn’t the problem???? Melo, what? Were we supposed to win a title with Frank Ntilikina, Kevin Knox, Dennis Smith? Or Lou Amundson and Bargnani? What are we doing here?
We don’t need a superstar coach to replace Thibs. I already listed all of the things he did wrong (and gave you a great article explaining it) that almost any coach on an NBA level would be able to do by simply not being stubborn to his degree. That’s just something you’re gunna have to wait n see.
I’m going back to my multi-month long bon voyage Thibs celebration… not letting you fun police me for another whole day lol
