NFT: Knicks: Woodson joining Thibs staff

Good.

Thibs mentioned using the G-league as an asset.

Rose says Knicks were open minded in coaching search

So here it is

You know this guy is gonna be angling for his old job.No matter where they stick him.

badly wanted to come back to NY, his interview supposedly was the best of any of the candidates

Thibodeau said that he will work with the front office to find a staff that works with what he's trying to accomplish with the team. Names I still keep hearing -Rick Brunson, Mike Woodson, Daisuke Yoshimoto, Mike Miller.

He has been an assistant for a lot of teams and zero chance Rose and WWW side eith him over Thibs..

The same team brought back Steve Mills and you watched him work his way to the top.Now that's upper management,but nevertheless,there's a probably a reason Woodson has been getting interviews and is now on the verge of being hired.

have to different defensive systems. Soi, it's unlcear why Thibs would wnat him.

"Brunson was arrested in June 2014 and indicted on charges of attempted criminal sexual assault, criminal sexual abuse, aggravated battery and domestic battery following an encounter with a massage therapist at a Lifetime Fitness in Vernon Hills. Authorities say Brunson used the name of retired NBA star Patrick Ewing to book an appointment in April with the massage therapist who had previously notified Brunson that she would no longer provide him with massages"

Dolan will welcome him with open arms then.

He probably could've gotten away with it if he used the name "Isiah Thomas"

Despite his decent record, I really could not stand Woodson when he was coach.

I blamed him and Tyson Chandler for that Eastern Conf semi-final loss vs. the Pacers.

Tyson Chandler made Roy Hibbert look like Hakeem Olajuwon and Woodson was just badly out-coached by Frank Vogel.

The Knicks should have won that series.

in some capacity, but didn't specify. We can safely assume it's the coaching staff, but it was a curious word choice.

First question: "Tom, if JVG was hired, would you have agreed to be an assistant on his staff?"

As "angling for Thibs job".

Woodson has been a top assistant for so many head coaches in the NBA. If he was some kind of backstabbing disloyal guy he wouldnt have the significant job history he does. He's respected enough around the league that theres no reason to make this seem like he's a snake waiting to bite.

Sounds like you're reaching with some of these.In an effort to pretend to be confused,or blind.

For example,what do you know about his respect around the league.

If you did a quick google search of Woodson, do you think you’d find more articles speaking of the respect Woodson has around the league or your asinine thoughts that he’s a backstabbing slime ball that is out to take other peoples jobs?

Who said he's gotta backstab anyone.The average life expectancy for a Knick coach is 1.4 years(Thanks Google)

All he would have to do is sit back and wait,and be in the right position.His mere presence could help him get the job.

to scout..

A complete waste, as there was a terrible connection and could barely understand him.

he wants the corner 3s and the right 3s, bad shooters taking 3s is not what he wants..

When he was coach of the Bulls minute restrictions were not a thing, the stars played 38 minutes a night, he has to adjist that now and he will

at 7 p.m.

Did he really ask that?

No, I was joking beforehand about Kay's JVG obsession. Interview was solid, if you could decipher a bad phone connection.

..

but I enjoyed Thibs’ Q&A and follow-up interview with Bill Pidto. Had good answers for the usual gripes about playing time and schemes. Hopefully the Rose-Wes-Thibs trio provides a little stability for once.

like they will cycle young players down to the G league, good.

Also the Greer Brothers

hiring a "significant" amount of player development coaches, that is on top of the assistant coaches

I think that’s something Thibs noticed when he made the rounds to other teams last year.
