get out of class ended! The serf farmer fell! Thibodeau, who can only fight the main force, has no ability to lead the team to win the championship
5:50pm, 5 June 2025【Basketball】
The Eastern Conference Finals came to an end. The same opponent, different rounds
The Knicks fell to the Pacers again. If the tiebreak in the semi-finals last year was eliminated due to injuries and the lack of soldiers
Then the Knicks were completely in a row and were over the series with 6 games, which was the team's strength and head coach. In the offseason last year, the Knicks, who fell in the semi-finals, were determined to make up for the lineup disadvantage. The chips for the exchange of Towns were Randle and Divincenzo, and the chips for the exchange of Bridge were Boyang. Among them, Boyang and Randle did not play in the playoffs last year, and Hartten left, which meant that Divincenzo and Hartten were upgraded to Bridgetown, and the result was that the loss was worse than last year
So, no surprise, Thibodeau was dismissed, and one led the team into the Eastern Conference Finals. The head coach was hyped after losing, which was actually beyond many fans' expectations, because in the past five seasons coached by Thibodeau, the Knicks have really transformed like a complete transformation. You should know that although Apple City is a New York team, its record has never been better, let alone dominate the NBA. The Knicks have always been a typical bad team in the NBA, and they are still the kind that can be ruined for many years. Until Thibodeau comes, the team has steadily improved every year. A very intuitive data under Thibodeau led the Knicks won 4 playoff series; before him, the Knicks only won one series in total, Thibodeau won 226 wins and 174 losses in five seasons. And led the Knicks to win 50+ games in a single season for the first time since the 1990s.
And he helped the Knicks advance to the Eastern Conference Finals for the first time in 25 years. In four playoff trips, he achieved a record of 24 wins and 23 losses. The Knicks once went out in the first round, twice and once stopped in the Eastern Conference Finals
The winning rate of 50% in the playoffs is actually better than many teams. Thibodeau has the ability, but his style is really not suitable for a team that competes for the championship. Compared with the Pacers' coach Carlisle is a complete champion. The coach, a good coach can not only be able to keep the locker room, but also have content in the training class. The command on the game is as important as the dispatch of troops. Why does the Knicks have increased significantly this season and still cannot beat the Pacers who have a disadvantage in their strength, and they can't even survive the G7. The problem is that the gap between the coaches is too big, so big that they have completed the above and above
. For the Knicks management, after they saw that the team has the strength to rush out of the East, plus a large number of signings every year They are never willing to be willing to playoffs in one or two rounds, but stand on the finals stage
the Knicks want to compete for the championship, so they are sure that the new coach will become the focus of the team's next development. There are not many head coaches outside at present, and the Knicks cannot choose a rookie coach or poach others. The former head coach of the Nuggets, Malone, has no job
, but I don't know that Malone's success in the Nuggets relies on the Jokic system to come to New York to see whether he can adapt to the legacy of black slaves left by Thibodeau. Or to re-establish a new style of play, but if you want to change your style of play, there must be risks. No matter who is going to be the new Knicks coach, the first step is to completely abolish the five donkey tactics, return to normal main substitute rotation, liberate the five starters, and allow them to reduce a lot of playing time from the regular season
What the Knicks boss wants is the championship, and the regular season results are not what he wants. Even if Thibodeau leads the regular season, what's the use of not winning the playoffs? Taking advantage of the fact that the Knicks are still relatively complete and cannot move players, they can only move the head coach.
Thibodeau is not a coach who can compete for the championship at all, but will only fight the main players. There are so many substitutes that don't use them, and they are too rigid in utilizing people. Last year's playoffs, which lost due to injuries.
The Athletic website conducted an anonymous survey of players. 44% of the players believed that Thibodeau was the coach they were least willing to play for.
Last year's playoffs, Coach Thibodeau not only did not try to reduce the consumption of the main players, but also seemed to be trying his best to test their endurance limits..
When the Knicks were eliminated in the playoffs, Hart, Brunson and Divincenzo ranked first, second and sixth in the league respectively
In the eyes of Thibodeau, both the regular season and the playoffs were basically seven and a half-man rotation. The regular season was too much, and the intensity of the playoffs was too high, so the players would be seriously burdened even if they were not injured. Besides, he did not have many tactical changes. He would suffer a lot in the series
For so many years, Thibodeau has insisted on short rotations, and the main players have always been at the forefront of the league. In the 25th season, the Knicks averaged only 21.4 points per game (the bottom of the league). Hart post-season The game lasted 48 minutes for four games, and the usage rate of Brunson was as high as 35.2%. The tactical concept of Thibodeau was rooted in the basketball concept of the 1990s, emphasizing physical confrontation, positional warfare and discipline. It is incompatible with the "space + three-pointer + fast pace" style of modern basketball
To put it bluntly, it is not suitable for modern basketball. Such backward tactical concept is very great for players to explode every game, and the opponent will stretch every game, otherwise it will be a matter of time sooner or later. Although Thibodeau's playing style is destined to be unable to go further, it cannot erase his red line in the Knicks in the past five years. Such results in five years are also the players who are willing to fight for Thibodeau. Without Thibodeau, it will be difficult to get together. The dismissal of Thibodeau and other players with the option of playing players must re-plan their future. Maybe it will be the beginning of New York's bad luck again. From the Bulls to the Timberwolves, which team Thibodeau will go to will definitely trigger conflicts in the locker room
At the end of the regular season of this season, the Knicks highlighted the team's tired posture. As the league's first iron man Bridges publicly complained that "the body has reached its limit", which shows that Thibodeau's coaching philosophy that consumes the main force has faced a crisis of trust
, and ESPN famous vocalist Stephen A-Smith pointed out sharply: "When even Bridges is tired, it means that this system is on the verge of collapse. "
When coaching Chicago, Ross became the youngest MVP in the NBA under his command, but the average consumption of 37.4 minutes per game laid the root of the ACL tear. After the roses withered, he and Butler directly led to the split of the locker room. Although he also led the team to help the Timberwolves break through the playoffs that he had not entered for more than a decade, he came to New York for five years. Brunson's ankle sprain, Anunobi's repeated hamstring strains, and Hart's All-Star experience declined. It can only be said that Thibodeau's life is the fate of helping the bad team to build a winning culture first. The team has certain results and is dissatisfied with his style, especially the players are dissatisfied with his behavior as a dead grass, and then they are fired.
He is obviously a coach with a lower limit and a lower limit. He finds a big core with a ball on the offensive end and swings himself, and the rest is to grab rebounds and fight for defense. From the Bulls to the Timberwolves, and then to the Knicks, this has always been the same path
Bulls, Timberwolves, and Knicks have lost for countless years. They have gradually become better since Thibodeau led the team to win
It can only be said that Thibodeau's goodness is limited, and the upper limit visible to the naked eye
Just as the media commented on him incisively:
"His success is the needle of the weak team, but the poison of the wealthy."
