Jalen Brunson already benefits from the impact of potential New York Knicks employment, Derek Harper argues

Searching for Tom Thibodeau alternatives remains a hot topic across the NBA landscape. The decision to say goodbye to the veteran coach has surprised many observers across the basketball community.

Thibodeau’s firing shocked fans and analysts alike, especially after he led the Knicks to his first Eastern Conference Finals appearance since 2000.

The timing of his departure raised questions about the franchise’s championship expectations.

Former Knicks player Derek Harper expressed surprise at the organization’s decision during a recent podcast.

Harper believes the move could backfire the franchise given his recent success under Thibodeau’s leadership.

“I was surprised they let go of Thibodeau. I thought it was a successful season and then advanced to the conference final,” Harper explained. The former security guard highlighted the uncertainty New York faces moving forward.

“One thing I saw next year is that there’s no guarantee you’ll be back,” he adds, referring to the challenge of maintaining championship-level performance.

Despite his initial shock, Harper’s outlook has improved significantly after learning about potential coaching candidates. The report linking Jason Kidd to the vacant seat has created optimism among former players and fans.

The connection between Jason Kidd and Knicks star Jalen Branson could prove important in New York coaching searches. Previous relationships in Dallas provide the foundation for immediate success at the Big Apple.

“The player coach allows the player to become himself. I think it’s a success by removing your ego. He’s zeroing the ego. I’m giving Jason Kidd a lot of credit for developing Jalen Branson.”

The former Knicks Guard believes that Kidd’s mentorship, along with the Mavericks, contributed to Branson’s development.

“When I play under J Kidd, I think Jalen really learned and grew as a point guard. He’s already had two championships in college, but there’s something about playing under the greatness of Jason Kidd.”

Securing Kidd’s services is not easy for Knicks organizations. Reports suggest that New York does not have much negotiating power in potential negotiations with Dallas with the current head coach.

However, some believe that the Mavericks could allow the Kid to pursue opportunities and start fresh from an all-new coaching staff.

This is good for both franchises, leading the team he knows with stars he already knows well.
