We could be looking at a HOF coach in the making. This team's execution and consistent focus is very rare.

His competition for COY is Mark Jackson, Thibs, and Larry Drew. Maybe Scott Brooks too, cause everybody started sleeping on OKC when they lost Harden.

I don't know about the HOF, but I'm personally wowed by how his hard work and smarts are returning the credibility of this franchise.

Not right now, but I could see him building a HOF career over the next 20 or so years. Hopefully most of them will be here.

That's probably the prediction to start the season.

IMO Pop should be winning this every year. It's amazing how good his teams are no matter who he puts on the floor.

Popovich (like hubie brown) looks like his breath smells like seafood and must.

Woodson had .750 winning percentage last year with this team on the fly and didn't get one vote, lol

Shows you how utterly clueless and non-credible ESPN, this is why I rarely buy the medias narrative

Mike Woodson has done the absolute best possible job and you may be seeing the coming up of an all-time great coach.

Simply amazing what he's done since taking over the Knicks head coaching position. Look at our home record under this man, it's been nothing short of outstanding. There are so many area's in which Woodson is perfect for the job here in New York, but these players play smart basketball under coach Woodson. If the season were to end today, we'd set an all-time NBA record for fewest offensive turnovers per game. Jason Kidd has alot to do with that, but it's more than just Kidd himself in regards to our ability to protect the ball as a team; we're protecting it as an actual team. We're playing tough, hard, smart, defending, confident on offense, killing the battle of the turnovers etc, etc. Couldn't ask for a more complete head coach moving forward. I was a D'Antoni supporter, I guess I was scared of change because boy was I wrong. These players respond under Woodson.

Down with this, I can't stand his stoic presence in the face of danger, like when we give up a 15-20pt lead (my bad tho, I just want him to be an extention of my emotion when I'm going nuts at home, lol). That being said, that's why he's the best coach in the Association right now and I'm just one of the most passonate Knick fans in existence. He is said to get in players grill when necessary unlike most past coaches in NY. Bottom line...WOODY IS GETTING IT DONE! He said earlier this year, "I scared the team into buying into our system and playing hard".

DUH,WINNING!

LOVE TO SEE HIM ON THE SIDELINES FOR THE EAST IN THE ALLSTAR GAME!!!

If we finish in top two in the East, it is Woodson's to lose. We're 13 games over .500! The Knicks! A team we were all dreaming of achieving .500 for how many years, and then floating a few games above .500 the past two years. He's changed the entire culture of this organization and knows how to use players to their strengths. Basically, he's doing everything Dantoni couldn't.
