Thibs almost certainly ends up in New Orleans now, right?

holds off and doesn't coach this year, although from everything I've read about him he doesn't have a life outside of basketball.
Thibideau broke off his engagement so he could focus only on coaching

I don't see him taking a year off

NO should hire gentry and try to nab thibs as an assistant. Gentry is getting a ton of love for his offense and has always been a decent head coach. Thibs as his asst. Could lead to good things in NO.

In what universe would Tibbs take an assistant job? He'd take a year off before doing that.

the Knicks should tell Fisher that it's been real and offer Thibs a 6 year contract. The media would kill them for letting Fisher go so fast, but they'd be making a huge upgrade at coaching.

He's a junkie and if no teams hire him... why not pursue him? I think some of you are underestimating the hit thibs rep took this year.

Everyone assumed thibs to Orlando made the most sense yet they still hired skiles. I think thibs has to rework his image a bit.

Is pretty high up on the Dolan enemies list. He's not going to be coaching the Knicks.
Skiles played in Orlando

He's a fit because he understands who he's working for and they know him.
