I was not satisfied with the advancement to the Eastern Conference Finals! The rich team is facing major changes: fire the coach + Tangs takes the blame

Basketball

On June 4, the NBA Finals have not started, and the Knicks, who lost in the Eastern Conference Finals, have taken action and want to go further next season. Earlier, the Knicks had announced the firing of the team's coach Thibodeau and would focus on finding a coach who can lead the team to compete for the championship, while the team's general Towns may be taking the blame, and a lot of rumors about his trade have been reported.

As a rich team in the NBA, the Knicks have performed well in recent seasons, and have successively introduced Anunobi, Bridges and Towns, making the lineup stronger. This season, he won more than 50 wins, ranking third in the Eastern Conference, and achieved good results in the playoffs, especially in the semi-finals, where the strong defending champion was eliminated. After 25 years, the Knicks came to the Eastern Conference Finals again. This result was a breakthrough for them, but they didn't expect to be unsatisfied.

The Knicks had the chance to compete in the finals, but unfortunately they failed to match the Pacers' rhythm in the Eastern Conference Finals and were eliminated 2-4 in a big score. Perhaps because he thought the Pacers were not strong, the Knicks made a big change after they were eliminated. He thought Thibodeau would continue to stay, but the boss stood up and made a decision to announce the dismissal, looking for a better coach, and the goal was to lead the team to win the championship.

In this way, coach Thibodeau still stood up and took the blame. Although he received Brunson's support, he still failed to withstand it. In the 5 seasons coaching the Knicks, he led the team to the playoffs four times, one first round out, two semi-finals, and one Eastern Conference finals. The overall results are still good, not very bad, and they are all in an upward trend. But even so, once a situation occurs, the coach is still the first priority to take responsibility.

In addition to Thibodeau, Towns in the Knicks has also become the target of blame. There have been many rumors about him, and it is obvious that he has been disliked by the team. In fact, Towns performed well in the playoffs, and defense was not his strength. Now the Knicks also want to make changes, and their goal is to Antetokounmpo. Once Towns can be exchanged for Antetokounmpo, the improvement in the lineup will be very significant, and it depends on whether it can be achieved.
