I'm actually in full support of the Knicks hiring Thibs. Personally, I wouldn't of had a problem if they hired Kenny, Woodson, Thibs, or stuck with Miller. But in regards to having a young team, I think Thibs would probably be the best choice. Something that young players need to learn early on is discipline and accountability. Instill values of working hard and wanting to get better. Which is a reason why my top two choices were Thibs or Miller.

Woodson is a good coach when a team already has good players to work with. We saw this when he took over after the D'Antoni debacle. Thing is, he isn't the best with reeling players in as we saw with JR Smith wylin out. Granted JR is a special case, but I digress. When it comes to the Knicks, we're still not entirely sure where these young guys can go just yet. With Atkinson...apparently Nets players and fans did not like him. I felt he was a good coach and did a good job developing that Nets team these past four years. Had the Rona not hit he would've gotten them to the playoffs back to back. And on a four year contract, that's definitely pretty solid considering it's a team consisting of young players. But who knows the truth there for sure, because if players didn't like him there must've been something going on and they were winning games in spite of him.

With Thibs, he already has the kinda players he would love to coach. Hardworking young player always willing to give it their all. Thibs is definitely gonna make RJ, Mitch, and Frank break out next. I feel like his big project is gonna be on Knox, and if it's one coach who's gonna whip Knox into shape, it'll definitely be Thibs.

All in all I find it pretty f***in crazy the amount of flak the Knicks are catching for hiring Thibs...I've never seen such contempt for a coach who has proven himself as a coach (assistant and head) for damn near three decades, finally turned the Bulls back into a thread in the east in the early to mid 2010s, continuing his playoff resume by finally coaching the Timberwolves to the playoffs after 20 f***in years in only his second year coaching there. He's won a title as an assistant head coach with the Celtics, he's won coach of the year. Has one of the better regular season W/L records. His playoff record, while not amazing, is still better than most during that Miami superteam era and an overall much more competent eastern conference.

The most I ask is for these bitter ass Knicks fans who are mad we didn't hire Atkinson...get a f***in grip. They're acting like we actually went ahead and hired Jason Kidd
