The New York Knicks shocked the NBA world by parting ways with head coach Tom Thibodeau despite reaching the Eastern Conference Finals for the first time in 25 years. While the firing raised eyebrows around the league, the franchise seems intent on finding a new voice to lead them into a championship window.

He left the Knicks before this season to serve as associate head coach in Cleveland under Kenny Atkinson and is a finalist for the Phoenix Suns job — although a source indicated that Jordan Ott is likely to land that job.
