[#1BostonFan]

Not that surprised with this move.

Looks like Kerr will be the replacement

Mike Woodson was fired as coach of the New York Knicks on Monday and Steve Kerr, a leading candidate to replace him, said later in the day that he expects to hear from new team president Phil Jackson soon.

If Kerr goes to the Lakers this could develop into Husband and Wife battle that I am sure TMZPN would run with because of their general disdain for real sports news.

When Kerr was on Dan Patrick awhile back, Dan asked him about the Knicks job and the Lakers job. His answer to both was "They have a coach".


When he pressed and said "if they didn't?" he said: "Well, I already live in San Diego, so I wouldn't have to move".

Hearing Kerr has looked at the warriors on the radio

I think Kerr and Fisher would both be good coaches. I lean towards Fisher because he was known for hard nose defense.

Derek Fisher? lol

Derek Fisher? lol

Did you see Fisher before he lost a step........or rather several steps and a leap?

 

[logic]

I think Phil should hire Mo Cheeks, just like his consulting last summer with the Pistons resulted in. I hear he is available.

It has been reported Dolan and PJ are already at odds over personnel decisions...

NYK are fucked.

If true, that sure didn't take long.

You obviously have not heard Phil Jackson say over the years that both Kurt Rambis and Brian Shaw should be given a chance at head coaching. Rambis coaches like Phil Jackson's philosopy and Phil would be there to advise him as needed. So laugh away laughing boy - but there really isn't anything better out there any way

I bumped this thread so I could say I was wrong and TLF was "mostly" right.

It's quite clear now that Phil wants someone who knows his triangle system and who he can help run it.

I'd rather Phil either bring in Lionel Hollins or Mark Jackson. Kurt Rambis would be a last resort choice, followed by Derek Fisher. Jeff Van Gundy still remains a wild card possibility.

That's the way I see it, also.

If I'm a player...... it would be kind of hard to look at Kurt and take him serious as a coach.

I could see rambis as an assistant under someone more accomplished, same w/ Fisher....

Btw: a resounding HELL NO!! to Mark Madsen, Luke Walton, Tyronne Lue or any of the other so called "candidates" that have been mentioned in the media as being on the radar for head coach.....FFS.

Yeah, Phil said that he wants a young coach that he can "mentor". Sounds to me like he's finally figured out how to coach the team without having to travel to the away games like it was rumored he wanted to do with the Lakers.

The next coach of the New York Knicks:

Wrong!

Mike D'Antoni was already our coach once.... then he went to your team.
In fact the puppet in that pic looks like he's still wearing that laker gold.......lol
