Outburst! Thibodeau is out of class! With him gone, can the Knicks be better? Not necessarily!

The Athletic Shams reports that the Knicks have fired coach Thibodeau.

It's breaking news for us, but it's a decisive decision for the team.

After all, the East Final had just ended, and the team that lost the East Final fired its head coach.

I still remember that after being eliminated in the Eastern Finals, a reporter asked Brunson, "Do you think Thibodeau is the most suitable candidate for the coach?" ”

The big head replied firmly: "Of course." ”

Therefore, Thibodeau's dismissal does not involve the conflict between the generals and the coach, it must be from a higher level, perhaps it is the decision of the boss Dolan.

What does Brother Di say?

Indeed, it's time for the Knicks to change.

As I wrote after the New York win on May 30: "That's the Thibodeau way, if you can't stand it, let him go." ”

Of course, we must recognize his historical merits.

He deserves a farewell in applause.

The veteran coach became Knicks head coach in the summer of 2020.

In the last five seasons, he led the Knicks to the playoffs four times, and Thibodeau had a 226-174 record in the regular season with the Knicks, with a winning rate of 56.5%. The playoff record is 24-23, with a winning percentage of 51.1%. The Knicks stopped in the first round once, stopped in the second round twice, and stopped in the Eastern Conference finals once.

The team won 24 playoff games at this stage, far more than the previous 13 coaches combined.

Prior to Thibodeau's arrival, the Knicks had won only 38 games in two years and had missed the playoffs for seven consecutive years.

Putting Rotten Ni up to the wall must be worthy of recognition.

This is also Thibodeau's ability, he is suitable for leading a bad team that needs to change its mental outlook, such as the current Wizards and Hornets, teams that need to start from defense.

But as the logic of the school: the poor class only emphasizes discipline all day long.

Thibodeau can take a "student" from 50 to 80 by teaching discipline.

However, if you want a real gold list title, the requirement is 90 points.

The Knicks didn't think he was the one who could lead the team from 80 to 90 points, so he quit.

There's nothing wrong with that.

Now it is a bottleneck period, and it is difficult to make a breakthrough.

Thibodeau's approach to coaching does have its limitations.

If you can keep the lower limit, you use him and give him time to transform, and your team is unlikely to be a rookie team.

But if you want to win the championship... Difficulty.

Offensive tactics rely on star singles and simple blocking, lacking complex coordination.

Why can the big head support him?

Thibodeau believes in him, the ball is given to him, can you not support him as a head coach... To some extent, the big head data is so good, and it is also due to Thibodeau.

As for the "five donkeys" that everyone complained about, it must also be the limitation of Xibodeau.

The playoffs are not a single elimination, a game is a winner, and you can fight the main team, which is understandable.

But to win an NBA championship, you need to win four series, and that's more than 20 games.

This year's playoffs are basically done every other day, which is a huge drain.

Then, the Knicks hit the Eastern Conference finals, and the power was out.

Thibodeau fought to the end, and he had already made a huge compromise on what he believed in.

But with a 6-7 rotation in the regular season and a 9-10 rotation in the playoffs, aren't you kidding...

The substitutes are difficult to prepare, both mentally and physically.

The Pacers, who have lost the long rotation for two years in a row, can't blame this to chance.

As soon as the battle line was long, the Knicks were sleepy.

Sadly, the NBA's best coach award is not a good award.

Between 2018 and 2023, these NBA coaches who won Coach of the Year were fired.

But if you put it all down to the head coach (as is the case with today's online viewing ethos), that's.

There is no shortage of good coaches on the market, such as Michael Malone, who led the Nuggets to a championship.

Then Thibodeau is out of class, and he can sing when he turns over as a serf?

The most direct goal, they can enter the finals? Can you win the championship?

But my superficial understanding of the NBA still can't.

This team is not only limited by the coach, but also by the core of the team.

Again, since I watched the NBA, only Stephen Curry has been able to really take the No. 1 position as the big core (number one big brother) and lead the team to win the championship.

Ku Nanshen's shoe-wearing height is 1.91 meters.

Brunson, 1.85m.

If you look at the ball a little, you can also see the limitations of the big head from the East Final... The stats are good, but there are shortcomings in both offense and defense.

In layman's terms, small defenders lead the team, and all those who can become are epic stars.

Below 1.9 meters, it is as strong as Iverson did not do it.

I'm not talking about personal opinions, but historical facts of the NBA.
