00:00
you know i just heard you uh talking about johnny bryant and i know this other guy odd is that his
00:06
name uh that they're talking about for the uh son's job which is the kiss of death job like this
00:14
you know ishbia whatever his name is i don't anything to do with that guy like he's uh
00:19
that that franchise a mess and what have they gone to five coaches in five years like
00:25
it's embarrassing i don't care what they do you can have that sandwich what i care about is what
00:32
the knicks are doing today firing this guy now everyone's a genius uh when they fire someone oh
00:40
he was first thing i heard my son say he sucked he was terrible terrible he won 56 of the games
00:47
i mean coach honestly in the nba if you win 51 they give you an extension and 100 million dollars
00:54
if you win 52 53 55 you're in god's land 56 is insane playoffs four or five years goes to the
01:02
eastern conference finals and they still whacked his ass that's marty schottenhyper stuff like losing
01:08
you win 14 games and they fire schottenheimer uh back in the day in the nfl did you see this coming
01:15
and did you think they were really going to fire this guy and they fired michael malone after he won
01:20
an nba championship two years later you know it's interesting pharrell i i thought that he was
01:26
going to come back and then the more i started thinking about it there was a chance right you
01:30
know game one is where he lost his job you know that big huge lead down the stretch but there there
01:38
was interesting there's been like little things being said deuce mcbride talked about stuff coming
01:43
to the surface that wasn't really talked about during the season then there was a report about the
01:48
players frustrated with cat and that dropped as soon as they lost listen tips the knicks have the
01:55
eighth best record in the nba over the last five years the knicks the knicks that couldn't make a
02:00
plaster seven years before that had the had the eighth best record in the league over the last five
02:06
years so when you look at new york it's a team where if they think that they could not get any further
02:12
with tips and let's be honest pharrell i thought that you know rick carlowe the last two years
02:18
completely outcoached them completely outcoached them um so to me yeah you maybe you shuffle deck
02:24
with the coach now when you get down to candidates johnny bryant is the name that's coming up a lot now
02:31
why number one he's the finest for the phoenix shop so the knicks have to make a move they have to make
02:35
a move quickly number two johnny bryant was the associate head coach for tom timiddle but he was not
02:41
brought in but tips he was brought in by world wide west and leon rose he's got a very good
02:47
relationship with jalen brunson but he left to go to cleveland because of his he's really close with
02:52
donovan mitchell so that's why you're hearing that name listen you're going to hear michael malone
02:57
championship coach experienced coach from new york city can coach defense can deal with superstars
03:05
you see him in press conferences is not going to be scared of the environment that's why you're hearing
03:10
his name a lot two other names maybe three other names and these are probably all home like long
03:16
shots number one you're going to hear jay wright we heard that we're bored with that we're on this
03:23
show we're bored with that he's not coaching anymore let's stop talking about him i respectfully
03:28
i will say this jay wright did not leave because he didn't want coaching jay wright left because he
03:32
didn't want to deal with the nil it's completely different than the nba now it's like he's taking it
03:36
but i'm just saying that for taylor jenkins i think he got a run i got a raw deal in memphis
03:42
i think he's a hell of a coach he's done a good job he took that team to a far place it's because of
03:47
the injuries and because of the injuries and jaw is why that team did not win right the last one
03:55
this is where this is where nostalgia comes in and you're going to hear nick fan say this
04:00
when is someone going to give mark jackson another chance he did a good job of golden
04:06
we haven't heard that one yet we heard danny early but we haven't heard that one
04:10
hurley is the last guy because he hurley one of the reasons why hurley did not go to the lakers
04:15
is hurley's a jersey guy he his roots are here he was not it was too hard to uproot his family so
04:22
that's why you hear hurley is because of the ties to the new york city area plus he's got friends in
04:29
that front office that the the jackson thing is intriguing because he was a unbelievable coach
04:37
with golden state you talk to steph draymond clay they all give him credit for building them up for
04:43
steve crow to come in on his white horse and get them to the title so those are the guys but to me
04:49
more than anything it's malone or johnny bryan my thought is it's going to be johnny bryan because
04:56
of the timing that the fact that as soon as he got named the finalist for the phoenix shop new york's
