The New York Knicks made the somewhat surprising move to fire coach Tom Thibodeau after losing in the Eastern Conference Finals. It's not often that a front office goes ahead and fires a coach who makes the conference finals -- especially for a team that hasn't made it there in more than two decades.

The New York Knicks are rumored to be interested in requesting an interview with Dallas Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd.

The New York Knicks fired head coach Tom Thibodeau despite a run to the Eastern Conference Finals and back-to-back 50-win seasons for the first time in 30 years. It was a head-scratching move for many people, but apparently, a few top players weren't pleased with the coaching direction of the team.
