There's a report in The New York Post that suggests that Tom Thibodeau would have his choice of a bunch of jobs head coaching jobs if he decided to get back in.
-
And three teams that are specifically named are the Knicks, the Nets and the Houston Rockets.
-
Okay, which job should he take?
-
You're joking, right?
-
We're gonna do five seconds on this and go to another topic in the past few days.
-
Tony, just because I talked part of my life is talking to people in the N.
-
B.
-
A.
-
In the basketball industry.
-
I have talked to people who have worked for Tom Thibodeau for years.
-
In a couple difficult passes.
-
I've talked to people who have coached against him.
-
I've talked to people who have been around him who love him, who think that he's a worthy coach wherever he goes and he could have any of these jobs is what they all say.
-
Are you kidding me?
-
The Knicks?
-
That's the job he's always wanted the Knicks.
-
If he is not going to coach Westbrook and Harden the New York Knicks.
-
If that job is offered him, that's where he's going.
-
Tone, plain and simple from, from everything I hear.
-
So I have the benefit of not talking to anybody.
-
And I just sit in this attic and I take notes.
-
The Knicks is the safe choice.
-
You're gonna get at least a five year deal from the Knicks, even though the owner just sure ins coaches out all the time.
-
You're gonna get a little bit better each year.
-
But you're never gonna be any good, because that's the sad reality of the Knicks, the Rockets you want to stay away from for a couple of reasons.
-
One.
-
Their two best players play the same position.
-
Their general manager is still hiding under a bed.
-
And if you're over 65 you're not allowed to play.
-
Where you and I differ is this.
-
Even though they are the doomsday twins Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving, you can win a title there.
-
You take it for two years.
-
You see how far you can go.
-
If Kevin Durant respects you, maybe he brings Kyrie along with thought.
-
Maybe you get to trade Kyrie Irving, but I think you roll the dice on the nets, not the Knicks.
-
And I guess you you don't.
-
It's all about the trump card down on you.
-
Who's running in New York Knicks as about a minute and 1/2 ago?
-
Leon Rose.
-
Do you know who we've used to represent?
-
A Weight?
-
Tips.
-
This is This is stacked for the Knicks.
-
Let me just say this.
-
It would just It was It was surprised me if he had those options and even a couple others of tips wouldn't take the Knicks, given what he thinks of the job.
-
But, you know, during the Jordan doc, well, we've heard Jordan say that.
-
My favorite place to play, I'm sure, other than in one of Chicago Rene's is Madison Square Garden.
-
You know how people feel about the Knicks in the Garden if they're of a certain age and tips is not 25 in those when the Knicks were something special, he does.
-
How did the last six or eight coaches do their Did they?
-
Did They enjoy themselves that they stay a long time?
-
But were they out?
