If he could win the New York Knicks head coaching position, it would never be slow for a candidate who wanted Mikal Bridges.

The New York Knicks have been a franchise of chaos for the past few weeks. After their disappointing playoff elimination, their management decided to take some dramatic steps

The first big move was to remove Tom Thibodeau. Despite taking the team to their first Eastern Conference Finals in 25 years, Leon Rose felt that Tibbs had taken them as much as they could.

After that, frankly, it was an embarrassing event. The Knicks prioritized landing Jason Kidd. However, after approaching Maverick and several other teams, the Knicks were violently rejected by all of them.

The Knicks then chose to change their approach. Taylor Jenkins and Mike Brown have been identified as potential head coach candidates.

Jalen Brunson is reportedly a admirer of Mike Brown, but his work rival Taylor Jenkins feels the same way about Mikal Bridges.

The Memphis Grizzlies suddenly fired Taylor Jenkins in April. Shortly after the decision, several ESPN insiders wrote detailed reports on exactly what went wrong.

Looking back at this film, it’s interesting to see Jenkins has been a long-time Mikal Bridge fan and even attempting to land a young star after Dillon Brooks’ departure.

“They also tried to trade with Mikal Bridge and Dorian Finney Smith because sources knew they needed an Elite Wing defender to replace Brooks.”

Well, that may not be in the circumstances where he returns in 2023, but if he can land the Knicks head coaching job, Jenkins will have the bridge he considers as a great wing defender.

However, Jenkins still has to compete for work with Brown. However, it should be noted that the arrival of Jason Kidd has not yet been ruled out by the Knicks.

Now, the New York Knicks player is over the season. While Josh Hart was busy watching the NBA Finals as an asshole, he defended Tom Thibodeau with X.

“All we’re talking about trash about Tib stepping in like hell. It took a different direction, but we should be grateful for what he did for the team and the organization.”

All the yall talking about Tib stepping in like hell. A different direction has been taken, but I should be grateful for what he did for the team and the organization.

Thibodeau and Hart were so close that they were always praised each other in the media. Thibs had a similar relationship with Jalen Brunson.

After the Knicks’ playoff exit, Branson headed out to reporters who questioned the team’s fit.

It is clear that all the players praised Thibodeau. With that in mind, the Knicks admins need to worry that players will accept his accidental replacement.

At the end of the day, the Knicks players are experts. So I hope they show us their new coach. No matter who it is, it is the respect that the position demands.
