The New York Knicks are reportedly planning to conduct an extensive search to find a new head coach to replace Tom Thibodeau.

Despite leading the New York Knicks to the Eastern Conference Final for the first time in 25 years, Tom Thibodeau is out as coach. The decision seemed hasty, but according to ESPN's Ramona Shelburne, the plug was pulled over usage concerns with Jalen Brunson and Thibodeau's failure to make schematic adjustments during the NBA playoffs.

New York Knicks owner James Dolan may have stumbled into the right decision by firing Tom Thibodeau, and it could be the move that unlocks the team’s full potential moving forward.
