What the Knicks are trying to pull off with their coaching search is not unprecedented, nor is it even particularly uncommon.

NEW YORK, June 3, 2025 – The New York Knicks announced today that the team has relieved head coach Tom Thibodeau of his duties.

The Knicks have already been denied permission to interview Dallas Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd, Minnesota Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch, Houston Rockets head coach Ime Udoka and the Atlanta Hawks' Quin Snyder by their respective teams, according to ESPN's Shams Charania.

Giannis has been exceptionally loyal to the Bucks, and it seems like he’s staying on brand. Still, Milwaukee’s inflexibility and lack of top-end talent around the two-time MVP are impossible to ignore. Don’t pencil him into the Bucks’ opening-night starting five just yet. We have a lot of offseason left.

Tom Thibodeau was, by far, the best New York Knicks coach of the 21st century. He led the team to the playoffs in four of his five years on the job. The Knicks made the playoffs just four times in the 19 seasons before he was hired.

On his Roommates Show podcast with Josh Hart, Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson speaks out for the first time after the firing of Tom Thibodeau.

Indiana Pacers coach Rick Carlisle did not believe it at first when he saw the news that the New York Knicks had fired Tom Thibodeau just three days after he outcoached him in the NBA Eastern Conference Finals.

The Knicks have backed themselves into a corner between the firing of Tom Thibodeau and this upcoming hire. Here's what we know.

The New York Knicks are facing a lot of change, as the team looks for a head coach. New York is likely to lose at least one free agent player.

New York took swings at coaches under contract that interested them, such as Dallas' Jason Kidd, but was rejected at every turn.
